Former Bush Aide Who Edited Reports Is Hired by Exxon
By ANDREW C. REVKIN
Philip A. Cooney, the former White House staff member who repeatedly
revised government scientific reports on global warming, will go to work
for Exxon Mobil this fall, the oil company said yesterday.
Mr. Cooney resigned as chief of staff for President Bush's environmental
policy council on Friday, two days after documents obtained by The New
York Times revealed that he had edited the reports in ways that cast
doubt on the link between the emission of greenhouse gases and rising
temperatures.
A former lawyer and lobbyist with the American Petroleum Institute, the
main lobbying group for the oil industry, Mr. Cooney has no scientific
training. The White House, which said on Friday that there was no
connection between last week's disclosure and Mr. Cooney's resignation,
repeated yesterday that his actions were part of the normal review
process for documents on environmental issues involving many government
agencies.
"Phil Cooney did a great job," said Dana Perino, a deputy spokeswoman
for the White House, "and we appreciate his public service and the work
that he did, and we wish him well in the private sector."
An Exxon spokesman, Tom Cirigliano, declined to describe Mr. Cooney's
new job. Mr. Cooney did not respond to e-mail or phone messages.
Exxon Mobil has long financed advertising and lobbying efforts that
question whether warming caused by humans poses risks serious enough to
justify curbing carbon dioxide, the main greenhouse gas emitted by
smokestacks and tailpipes.
Mr. Cirigliano said yesterday that the company was committed to acting
responsibly on the issue.
"Exxon Mobil has taken, is taking and will continue to take tangible
actions to reduce emissions in our operations, as well as in customer
use of our products, and to better understand and prepare for the risks
of climate change," Mr. Cirigliano said.
