        They could pay that daily & it wouldn’t make them Change 💩. This is what happens when the guy in charge of the EPA won’t protect the planet

        That's nothing to them! It's likely cheaper for them to pay fines than to actually do something about the pollution. Not right.

        2.5 million is nothing for them, they rather pay fines than invest in cleaner technology

        That's only a pittance for them. Didn't they just claim $30b in global profits? ... and that's just for the qtr.
