Greenwashing from a deadly industry
Shell’s single biggest political contribution to political lobby groups in 2020 was £10m to API, whose chief executive, Mike Sommers, is working to resist even minimalist decarbonisation measures like Joe Biden’s proposals to fund new EV charging points across the US. To pretend there’s any debate when we have until the end of the decade to stop greenhouse gas emissions is a deadly, time-wasting mirage. It doesn’t matter how many renewables Shell develops or promotes while they are still selling fossil fuels, lobbying to block decarbonisation, and driving GHG emissions that are making our planet inhabitable.

Companies like Shell have boosted human prosperity to enormous levels.Critisizing developing countries for wanting the same levels of prosperity makes no sense. Creation of cheap energy and accessibility should be the focus for the elevation from poverty.
