Exxon Mobil Told To Hand Over Decades Of Climate Documents In Major Legal Blow

Exxon Mobil encountered a major setback on Wednesday when a Massachusetts judge ordered the oil company to turn over 40 years of documents related to climate change.

The ruling represents a huge win for the state’s attorney general Maura Healey, who is investigating how much Exxon knew about the link between fossil fuels and climate change and if it intentionally hid such information from the public.
