"[ A] brisk, masterful crime story" Toronto Star
"In a classical Greek tragedy, the world is brought to ruin by a character's moral flaw. The moral flaw that has brought the planet to the brink of climate chaos, according to [ The Petroleum Papers], is unbridled greed compounded by hubrisa bloated sense of corporate entitlement...[ F]or those who want a no-frills account of how we ended up on the climate precipice, this is an essential read." Richard Schiffman, The Washington Post
"The petroleum industry is guilty of a Big Tobaccostyle public cover-up, according to this vivid exposé. Publishers Weekly STARRED Review
"A truly needed compendium of Big Oil's endless liesGeoff Dembicki has done the world a tremendous favor. Hopefully we'll act on it; if not, it will be a great resource for any future historians wondering why and how we let the petroleum-industrial complex do such damage." Bill McKibben, author of The End of Nature and Falter and cofounder of 350.org
"A terrific and engaging book with great new investigative material. The Petroleum Papers reveals how the Koch brothers, Exxon and other key players in the Canadian tar sands led a decades-long campaign to misinform the public about climate change. Dembicki has provided us with a compelling narrative of the efforts fossil fuel companies took to profit from planet destroying fuels despite extensive knowledge of the dangers. Robert Brulle, Visiting Professor of Environment and Society, Brown University
Dembicki's painstaking journalism and research help reveal a global kleptocracy as cold-blooded as they are deluded; this book belongs on the shelf next to Naomi Oreskes and Erik Conways Merchants of Doubt, Jane Mayers Dark Money, and Christopher Leonards Kochland. An essential chapter in the tragic story of our collective failure to stop catastrophic climate change. Roy Scranton, author of Learning to Die in the Anthropocene
Dembicki documents how oil industry executives willfully ignored the findings of their own scientists, then spent nearly thirty years sowing confusion in order to paralyze public debate... Read this book on the power of lies and scream. Andrew Nikiforuk, author of Tar Sands
"An exposé that reads like a novel... The Petroleum Papers is gripping even as it enrages." Seth Klein, author of A Good War
