Exxon files lawsuit against investors' climate proposal.
Exxon Mobil on Sunday filed a complaint in a Texas court seeking to prevent a climate proposal by activist investors from going to a vote during the company's shareholder meeting in May.
This is the first time Exxon is seeking to exclude a shareholder proposal by filing a complaint in court. The case was assigned to a judge with a track record of ruling in favor of conservative causes.
Sad to see Exxon fighting proposals that would see it adhered to climate goals

This is a wrong move. It underscores the need for a balanced approach to addressing environmental concerns within the corporate sphere.

So if shareholders risk voting ”wrong”, they are simply prevented from voting? Scary development.

It's unfortunate to see a lack of alignment between Exxon and the growing global emphasis on corporate environmental responsibility.

This lawsuit appears to be a desperate attempt to avoid addressing the critical issue of climate change.

The attempt to gag a climate activist should be frowned upon and discouraged. This should get more agrees to trigger contact with the recipient asap. Guys, lets do this.

This is a negative move and Exxon must rethink of this and follow on making things right as petitioned by climate activists. Exxon and other oil majors must adopt tighter climate target especially on reducing emmisions.

@joseph_githinji I wonder what kind of game Exxon is playing. All oil majors should either go clean or shut down completely.
