The Petroleum Papers
by Geoff Dembicki; read by Steve Menasche
Burning fossil fuels will cause catastrophic global warming: this is what top American oil executives were told by scientists in 1959. But they ignored that warning. Instead, they developed one of the biggest, most polluting oil sources in the world―the oil sands in Alberta, Canada.
