ExxonMobil Waste Management Solutions has all the chance to fail after all the misleading statements, fake promises, and bs propaganda.

Dividends are worthless if the value of the company keeps declining. Look at the 5 year chart... Its pathetic. Almost looks like a stock split.

Oh my, those world class unbiased editors at vanity fair have spoken with great expertise on science, energy and economics! They should stick to the “fashion industry” but if you are desperate for validation of your beliefs, guess you can quote anyone. Doubt anyone cares.
