NEW YORK, Feb. 13 -- The 350.org issued the following news release:
BP announced its climate plan to become a net zero company by 2050 and cut by 50% the carbon intensity (amount of GHG emissions a fuel emits) of products BP sells by 2050 or sooner. The announcement does not include plans to phase out fossil fuels, what campaigners say is essential to staying below 2 degrees. Therefore, it only means that BP will keep selling its polluting products way longer than what is compatible . . .
