This only has a name, war. We are at war with our inbred cousins.

Is there a list of the companies involved? It's a pretty important piece of reporting, and it's really weird such a fundemental piece of information isn't included in the article.

They even include a line at the end that they asked "all roundtable companies" to respond to the article, why the heck aren't they telling us who those companies are??

The 10 core members are listed in the article: Chevron, ExxonMobil, TotalEnergies, Koch Industries, Honeywell, Dow Inc, JPMorgan Chase, Enterprise Mobility (Enterprise Rent-a-Car), Baker Hughes and Nyrstar. They're all American companies except for TotalEnergies (France) and Nyrstar (Netherlands). It's coordinated by an American PR firm called Teneo. So there are presumably more companies involved that aren't known to the public yet.
