“The relationship between greenhouse gas emissions and global climate change is an issue of monumental scope and scale. Climate change policies have implications for environmental quality, energy security, and the economic health and competitiveness of our nation.”205 Statements on Human Rights As of 23 August 2019, Murphy Oil Corp. has not published statements referring to human rights in its website or the reports quoted above. Murray Energy Corporation As of 23 August 2019, Petitioners could not find Murray Energy Corporation’s annual reports and sustainability reports for 2017 and 2018. NACCO INDUSTRIES INC. (North American Coal Corporation) Statements on Climate Change “Significant public opposition has also been raised with respect to the proposed construction of certain new coal-fueled EGUs due to the potential for increased air emissions. Such opposition, as well as any corporate or investor policies against coal-fired EGUs or requiring disclosures related to global climate change, could also reduce the demand for NACoal’s coal or marketability of NACCO stock. Further, policies limiting available financing for the development of new coal-fueled EGUs or coal mines or the retrofitting of existing EGUs could adversely impact the global demand for coal in the future. The potential impact on NACoal of future laws, regulations or other policies or circumstances will depend upon the degree to which any such laws, regulations or other policies or circumstances force electricity generators to diminish their reliance on coal as a fuel source. In view of the significant uncertainty surrounding each of these factors, it is not possible for us to predict reasonably the impact that any such laws, regulations or other policies may have on NACoal’s business, financial condition and results of operations. However, such impacts could have a material adverse effect on NACoal’s business, financial condition and results of operations”206 “We believe that the power plants we supply are generally younger and more efficient, with better environmental controls than most power plants that have closed in recent years. Many of our customers continue to invest in efficiency and environmental upgrades to their facilities. Because these power plants are competitive suppliers of electricity in their respective dispatch areas, we consider our surface coal mining operations to be well positioned relative to competitors, Murphy Oil Corp., Climate Change Principles, p. 1, available at http://www.murphyoilcorp.com/content/documents/Responsibility/Climate_Change_Principles.pdf (last accessed on 12 September 2019). 206 NACCO Industries Inc.
