Dear Darren, Suzanne and Max,


.
In your recent February 23 blog, Darren (or XOM ghost writers) stated:
.

"Governments can help advance the search for energy technologies by


funding basic research and by enacting forward-looking policies. A
uniform price of carbon ... being discussed by policymakers is a
national revenue-neutral carbon tax. Bit.ly/EnFac23Feb17
.

I take exception with the assumption that our government is capable of


adopting effective and timely legislation. I am convinced that your ironic
promotion of a revenue-neutral carbon tax is disingenuousraising false
hopeand deferring to governments is contrived to create unrealistic
expectations and effectively delay actionso you can turn a blind eye.
Sincerely yours,
Doug Grandt
