Today, a Big Oil PR group released this cartoon video as an attack against Global Divestment Day.
The Environmental Policy Alliance is a front group for Big Oil that pushes out specious and inaccurate opposition research on individuals and organizations who fight climate change.

Aaron Packard, our Oceania Region Coordinator, used his own narration skills to do a remix of the video.
*UPDATE* Looks like Big Oil didn’t like our parody and made YouTube take it down, but you can still listen to Aaron’s narration here – if Big Oil was honest, this is what they would actually say:
(if you mute the above video and start at same time – it’s the same hilarious effect)
