Massachusetts Attorney General Maura Healey wants gas station owners to post warnings at the pump that say customers are spurring climate change by filling up their tanks.
The idea came up in oral arguments in Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court Tuesday in a case challenging Exxon Mobil's record on addressing the threat of global warming and the attorney general's claim that the company misinformed the public over the threat.
Justice Frank Gaziano asked how gas stations are involved in "deception or fraud related to climate change."
"Because, your honor, the gas sold at those gas stations is among the premier contributors to global warming," Healey's lawyer, Richard Johnston, responded.
Healey has asked for information from Exxon related to the marketing of fossil fuels in Massachusetts, "including advertisements, in particular," Johnston said.
"So, I own Joe's gas station on the corner, I'm a franchisee, and you're telling me that I have information that relates to how Exxon Mobil, this gi-normous corporation, has marketed and lied on climate change?" Gaziano asked.

Great idea. And they should be on the seat backs of private jets.
“It’s funny how all substances, natural and man made, cause cancer in California.”

Its worse then that! Against every measure, against all rationality and reason, Californians are causing massive climate change in their own state (and not in a good way) because they insist on exhaling CO2! This must stop!
Take the cost of making and applying them, come from her pay and pension!
This buffoon should stop exhaling, that would be a big help— less CO2, and one less liberal clown.
Wait until they find out the warning stickers cause cancer
This bitch has got to go.

To condition the folks for price hikes and unreasonable restrictions on driving.
“Yep, everything. Steel, sheetrock, plastics, minerals, wood, concrete, water, automobiles, buildings, furniture, air...you name it, it all causes cancer.
But, we have all paid close attention to the warning signs and are now cancer free. The power of stickers is amazing. Possibly more powerful than #anticancer.”
Democrats cause acid reflux.
She may induce me to trade in my Corolla for an F-150 just to spite her embittered little ass.
Excuse she is the attorney general, not the Nanny-in-Chief. The State House is crawling with slime and corruption and she has time to hector taxpayers with her delusions?
When Maura Healey takes down the giant,much loved Citgo Sign in Boston maybe someone will take her seriously.
This is the dumbest idea ever.

Then, Kali mandates a “cure” that turns out worse than the original substance/regulation/whatever.
Did you ever get the promotional tiger tail?
Ooops..... America
The fuel system leaks everywhere. It’s a piece of junk!
Id like to have a Tiger tank too.
See! Feminism works perfectly
This guy used to be there so no one would be tempted to put any alcohol in any body's tank.
Another stupid woman in government instead of taking care of the home where she belongs and has God-given skills.
No, were they only for The Girls?
