European Oil and Gas Companies Renewable Energy Greenwashing

Summary

European oil and gas companies produce only 0.3% renewable energy despite deceptive net-zero pledges.

Score Rationale

High G-score (78) reflects fossil fuel sector's inherent emissions magnitude and trajectory, with severe disclosure gaps (0.3% vs net-zero claims). High C-score (82) driven by industry-wide transformational net-zero pledges with maximum scope but minimal verification and specificity. Intent score 14/15 indicates systematic greenwashing: vague unmeasurable language, lack of third-party verification, pattern across multiple companies, massive gap between claims and reality. Scores within 4 points classify as Mixed wash - both significant environmental harm AND prominent deceptive claims present.
