Oil giant BP has boldly stated that it has “new purpose”. The company says it’s “reimagining energy for people and our planet” as part of becoming a net carbon-zero company by 2050.

I wonder how much they paid the marketing/pr guru who came up with those words.

Actually, it wouldn’t surprise me if it involved a fleet of them spending hours in conference rooms “brainstorming”.
