So first of all I agree, definitely hold the directly responsible accountable.

But it's not an either/or thing, we can just do both!

Because I'm sorry, but who works at Exxon and doesn't know its probably not great for our planet?

That’s seems ass-backwards though. If you want to punish Exxon because they contributed to global warming by satisfying the demand of billions of people for the energy embodied in fossil fuels, it seems like you should directly attack the thing you don’t want: extraction and combustion of fossil fuels.

Don’t kill Exxon and let Shell operate.
