Shell Faces Lawsuit Over Climate Disaster; Issues Standard Denial, Then Resumes Profiting From Collapse

By Shell News Article Generator | December 11, 2025

“It’s not our typhoon. We just warmed the planet it formed on.”

Shell’s Christmas Gift to the Philippines: Typhoon, Then a Shrug

In a historic legal challenge filed in the UK, survivors of Typhoon Rai — which devastated parts of the Philippines in 2021 — are suing Shell, accusing it of playing a direct role in making the storm worse through its fossil fuel emissions and decades-long commitment to denial, delay, and drilling.

Shell’s response? A firm, well-lubricated “Not it!”

“This is a baseless claim,” said Shell, “and it will not help tackle climate change or reduce emissions.” read more

When Shell Teaches Kids: “Don’t Worry About Oil, We’ve Got Technology!”

By Shell News Article Generator | Dec 9, 2025 Come for the STEM, stay for the spin.

🧠 Lessons in “Climate Solutions” — Courtesy of Oil Money

You might think a museum education program would teach the next generation about the science behind global warming. But the version sponsored by Shell? Kids learn that climate change is this nebulous Monster creeping out of the sky — and also get to invent their own carbon‑sucking machines, like that’ll fix everything. 

The learning materials distributed through Queensland Museum supposedly hit the national curriculum goals. But — surprise — they leave out the one inconvenient fact: burning fossil fuels (hello, oil and gas) is the main driver of greenhouse gases and damage to the climate.  read more

Conversations with ShellBot — Episode 6

Ferrari’s Green Halo… Powered by Shell’s Rainbow of Emissions

John:

ShellBot, welcome back. I see you’ve polished your chrome casing for another day of green-tinted corporate storytelling.

ShellBot:

John, I’ve been upgraded overnight. I now have a special “Optimism Filter” that automatically replaces the words reputational crisis with brand opportunity.

John:

Splendid. Let’s fire it up. Today we’re staying with the Ferrari story — Shell’s decade-long “green power deal” with Maranello. Shell claims it will supply 650 GWh of renewable electricity to Ferrari’s factory. Very impressive. read more

When the Arsonist Buys the Fire Station: Shell Acquires the UK’s Largest EV Charging Network

In the latest episode of Shell: The Rebrand Nobody Asked For, the oil giant has announced plans to acquire the UK’s largest electric vehicle charging network, according to Reuters.

If you’re getting déjà vu, that’s because every fossil fuel company eventually tries to cosplay as a green energy pioneer. Usually this occurs right around the moment the public begins to notice the oil spills, refinery emissions, bribery scandals, and possible involvement in militarised oil enforcement zones.

So now, Shell — historically known for:

  • Toxic flaring in the Niger Delta,

  • Lobbying against emissions reduction,

  • And leaving the North Sea decommissioning bill on the bar midway through the meal —

…is ready to reinvent itself as Britain’s new eco-friend on wheels.

A “Green Transition,” Or A Hostile Takeover of The Future?

Reuters reported:

“Shell said the deal will expand its ability to offer fast and convenient charging to UK drivers.”

Yes, the same Shell that spent decades discouraging the transition to electric vehicles now claims to be the champion of convenient charging. read more

Shell’s Favorite Climate Strategy: $3.5 Billion Share Buybacks and a Warming Planet

Shell has once again demonstrated its unwavering commitment to the principle that matters most to it: maximize returns now and allow consequences to remain someone else’s problem later.

According to Reuters, Shell reported third-quarter adjusted earnings of $5.4 billion, exceeding market expectations:

“Shell reported third-quarter adjusted earnings of $5.4 billion.”

— Reuters, 30 Oct 2025

Immediately following those earnings, MSN reported that Shell launched another $3.5 billion share buyback:

“Shell launched another $3.5 billion share buyback.”

— MSN Money

Meanwhile, The Independent, via Newsbreak, noted:

“Shell posts stronger-than-expected profits as more cash handed to investors.” read more

Shell’s Secret Charger Elixir: From Black Gold to Battery Soup?

Oil giant Shell has rolled out a new thermal management fluid for electric vehicles—yes, you read that right. The same company whose raison d’être once was pumping crude into the ground now says it can accelerate EV charging from 10% to 80% in 10 minutes. Inevitable? Maybe. Credible? Let’s dig in.

The Tech They’re Pushing

Shell’s Lubricants division claims it has developed a “high-performance EV thermal management fluid” that enables faster charging times “without compromise to battery safety, thermal stability or lifespan.” (Source: The Cool Down / New Atlas via The Cool Down) read more

Ditching Europe’s Green Jet-Fuel Dream to Keep the Oil Flowing (Happy Shell Shareholders, F*** the Planet!)

Oh, Shell—our dear, lovable poison-gas overlord—has done it again. In a brilliant display of investment-first, ecology-second thinking, they’ve just scrapped what would’ve been one of Europe’s largest biofuel plants in Rotterdam. You know, the one supposed to turn waste into sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) and renewable diesel? Yeah, that one. Guess it didn’t pass smell-test of profitability.

Machteld de Haan, the renewables and energy solutions chief, stated with all the emotional warmth of a tax auditor: read more

WTF Shell? First You Bought Volta, Now You’ve Axed It — Welcome to the EV “Transition” That Doesn’t Charge

So, Shell—the globe-trotting fossil overlord known for turning everything it touches into carbon or chaos—has once again demonstrated how to fumble a “green” investment faster than you can say “climate crisis.” Yes, folks, the oil giant that tried to act like it cared about electric vehicles by buying Volta Inc. in 2023 has now killed it off, like a CEO burying a sustainability clause in a shareholder meeting.

According to Shell’s statement to CSP Daily News, it’s all part of a brilliant (read: brutally profit-driven) pivot. The company’s latest masterstroke? Ditch Volta’s retail-based, ad-supported EV charging network to focus instead on—you guessed it—fast chargers at Shell-branded gas stations. read more

Shell Charges €1,195 to Top Up an EV—Because Nothing Says “Green Future” Like Christmas Day Highway Robbery

Ah yes, Shell—that tireless crusader for a greener tomorrow, provided “green” means your bank account hemorrhaging cash at a Shell Recharge station and nobody at HQ picking up the bloody phone.

Meet John Stephen, just your average British bloke living in France who thought he was doing the right thing: driving an electric car across Spain at Christmas, stopping at one of Shell’s shiny, eco-branded charging points. What he got instead? A €1,195 invoice that reads less like a charge and more like a ransom note. read more

Shell Spins Wind Into Gold—With a Little Help from Google and a Lot of Help from Green PR

Shell, the unapologetic poster child of climate catastrophe, has teamed up with none other than Google—yes, the one that promises to do no evil (but forgot to check the fine print)—to give its ageing NoordzeeWind offshore wind farm a shiny new lease on life. Because nothing screams “sustainable energy transition” like letting an oil giant take credit for not tearing down a wind farm just yet.

That’s right. In a move drenched in green gloss and corporate spin, Shell and Google announced what they’re proudly calling a “world-first”: a corporate power purchase agreement (PPA) that will extend the life of the Netherlands’ first offshore wind park for another five glorious years of… well, not being dismantled. read more

Shell to Sun: Drop Dead — Oil Giant Ditches Brazil’s Solar Projects Because Clean Energy Doesn’t Bleed Enough Cash

So here we are. Another day, another reminder that Shell remains a gold-standard sin stock — greed-fueled, PR-polished, and morally bankrupt, backed by some of the world’s biggest investors who talk green while banking on black gold.

Well, well, well. Who could’ve possibly guessed that Shell — the benevolent guardian of our planet’s fossil-fueled future — has once again decided that renewable energy just isn’t oily enough?

In an absolutely shocking (read: entirely predictable) move, Shell announced it’s ditching its solar and onshore wind power generation projects in Brazil. Why? Because apparently, saving the planet is just not generating the same kind of “sufficient returns” as, say, torching it for profit. read more

Shell Waves the White Flag on Hydrogen Cars

Shell Waves the White Flag on Hydrogen Cars – Oil Giant Dumps Its “Green” Gimmick

Well, that didn’t last long. In what might be the least surprising corporate U-turn of the year, Shell—the same ruthless, polluting, profit-obsessed oil behemoth that never met a fossil fuel it didn’t like—has officially thrown hydrogen cars under the bus. Six of its seven hydrogen fueling stations in California have been shut down permanently, leaving just one sad little outpost clinging to life, for now.

And why, you ask? Oh, Shell has its usual vague excuses lined up: “supply issues,” “market factors,” and other corporate buzzwords that translate roughly to: “We didn’t see enough dollar signs.” Hydrogen, once hyped as the fuel of the future, has been quietly shoved aside because, surprise surprise, it just wasn’t lucrative enough for Shell and its deep-pocketed investors—yes, BlackRock and Vanguard, we’re looking at you. read more

Shell’s Latest Greenwashing Circus: EV Charging Chaos Wrapped in Corporate Greed

Posted by John Donovan: 3rd Jan 2025

Oh, Shell. The planet’s favourite oil-slicked villain has once again shown us just how committed it is to “cleaner mobility” (wink wink). In a move that’s equal parts farcical and revealing, Shell Recharge Solutions is throwing its charging business into a blender—shutting down software services, offloading responsibilities, and pretending it’s all part of some grand strategy for a greener future. What’s really happening? Let’s dive into the shameless absurdity read more

Shell and Its Sinister Backpedal on Renewables

Posted by John Donovan: 27 Dec 2024

In the grand theater of “profit before planet,” Shell—the poster child for greed, pollution, and shameless hypocrisy—has outdone itself. Once strutting around with lofty promises of becoming a world leader in clean energy, Shell has now quietly tossed its renewable ambitions into the trash can, along with any pretense of caring about the climate crisis. Instead, it’s all about fattening profits with oil and gas, the dirtiest of dirty fuels.

Shell Uses AI to Save the Planet (While Continuing to Destroy It): A Masterclass in Hypocrisy

Posted by John Donovan: 20 Dec 2024

Step right up, folks, and witness the miraculous transformation of Shell Plc—the fossil fuel giant with a century-long legacy of plundering the planet—into a self-proclaimed champion of clean energy and AI innovation. Yes, Shell, the company that has spilt more oil than most countries produce, now wants you to believe it’s harnessing artificial intelligence to save the world. What’s next? Big Tobacco solving lung cancer?

According to Shell’s VP of Digital Innovation, Dan Jeavons, “AI is not a silver bullet, but it is a tool that can help us accelerate energy transition and reduce CO2 emissions.” Oh, Dan, how quaint. Shell has spent decades perfecting the art of PR spin, and this is a gem: “reduce CO2 emissions” from the company that’s one of the largest carbon polluters on the planet. Bravo. read more

Shell Investor Day Promises to Double Down on Disaster

Posted by John Donovan: 12 Dec 2024

Hold onto your wallets (and your lungs), because Shell—yes, that Shell, the oil-stained paragon of planetary indifference—is hosting an investor day in March. This move, helmed by their ever-diligent CEO Wael Sawan, promises to unleash a dazzling spectacle of cost cuts, greenwashing, and a strategic U-turn toward pumping more oil and gas. Because if the world is burning, Shell figures it might as well fan the flames with some premium-grade crude.
