People's views on Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's Green New Deal may change as the plan becomes more detailed, says Exxon Mobil CEO Darren Woods.
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's Green New Deal is garnering significant support, but the head of Exxon Mobil says people's views may change as the plan becomes more detailed and Americans begin to comprehend how it will affect their daily lives.
But eventually those big ideas will require action, says Exxon Chairman and CEO Darren Woods, and that's when the tide of public opinion could begin to turn against the Green New Deal. To be sure, as the world's largest publicly traded oil company, Exxon is not a disinterested party. The Green New Deal would almost certainly disrupt its business if it were successfully implemented.
"The conventional set of technologies doesn't address all the gaps that are out there today," he said.
