Exxon Mobil did not mislead investors on the true cost of addressing climate change. That’s according to a New York judge, who ruled on Tuesday that state attorney general Letitia James failed to produce any evidence that suggested otherwise. James had argued that Exxon - one of the two largest U.S. oil companies - falsely stated that it had properly evaluated the impact of future climate regulations on its business, causing investors to lose $1.6 billion. In dismissing the case, Judge Barry Ostrager wrote: "Nothing in this opinion is intended to absolve Exxon Mobil from responsibility for contributing to climate change through the emission of greenhouse gases…" But he added that it was a securities case, not a climate change case. The lawsuit - filed in October 2018 - was the first of several climate change lawsuits against major oil companies to go to trial, which saw testimony from former Exxon CEO - and former Secretary of State - Rex Tillerson, who denied the allegations against the company.

ExxonMobil Responds to Verdict in Suit by New York Attorney General
Exxon Mobil Corp won a major victory in a closely-watched lawsuit on Tuesday when a judge ruled that the company did not defraud investors out of up to $1.6 billion (£1.25 billion) by hiding the true cost of climate change regulation. The ruling by Justice Barry Ostrager in Manhattan Supreme Court followed a trial featuring testimony from investors, experts and former Exxon Chief Executive Officer Rex Tillerson. The judge found that the New York State Attorney General's case failed to produce evidence that investors were misled.
Exxon Mobil won Tuesday in a closely watched lawsuit over the costs of climate change, with a judge saying there was no proof the energy giant duped investors about the toll that regulations could take on its business. New York Attorney General Letitia James' office didn't prove the company made any material misstatements "that misled any reasonable investor,” state judge Barry Ostrager in Manhattan wrote in dismissing the case. “Nothing in this opinion is intended to absolve Exxon Mobil from responsibility for contributing to climate change through the emission of greenhouse gases,” he added.

For left-leaning economists such as David Harvey, the term “neoliberalism” perfectly sums up the mix of laissez-faire economics, centrist politics and market supremacy that has held sway in the west for 40 years.
