Environmentalists Go On Climate Witch Hunt: Finger ‘climate culprits’ for Typhoon: Philippines Should Demand Haiyan redress from fossil fuel companies – ‘Hold these companies liable for their role in abetting global warming’
'As major emitters, these corporations are called climate culprits by environmentalists because their emissions have contributed to the accelerated warming of the planet. This warming has led to extreme weather events like freak typhoons, sweltering summers, droughts that threat food security, and storm surges that threaten humanity. "We as citizens have an obligation as well as a right to hold those companies directly responsible for destruction accountable. For far too long now, oil and gas companies have literally gotten away with murder," said Kumi Naidoo, Director of Greenpeace International.
