You don't have to accept or trust the results produced by the scientists who are paid for by the oil industry. But to try to prevent them even doing their research? Surely you're not suggesting that is a 'scientific' way to behave?
I also think it is naive to believe that the oil industry is the only vested interest here. As I said earlier, there is a lot of research money to be had at the moment, for people willing to give their time over to researching climate change.
