That's why there's been rumbling to prosecute the fossil fuel companies the way we prosecuted big tobacco for knowingly lying about the dangers of their products.

I don't know about the nuanced legal standing of that, but I hope it happens and works and they all die in a gasoline fire maybe.

It's not surprising, they lied about the dangers of gasoline containing lead for years. In fact, they use the same tactics to this day & buy off scientists that will lie to people around the world.
