What the f**k is going on at BP?

Murray Auchincloss, the latest placeholder in BP’s revolving door of CEOs, is heading for his judgment day. Investors are sharpening their knives, and on February 26, they might just gut his tenure like a sacrificial lamb. Why? Because unlike Shell—the ultimate sin stock, the Exxon of Europe, the undisputed king of greed—BP has been fumbling its way through an identity crisis. And investors? They’ve had enough of BP’s weak attempts at greenwashing when there’s good old-fashioned oil money to be made. read more

Ah, good old Shell, the absolute paragon of corporate virtue—if “virtue” means ruthlessly exploiting the planet, trampling workers, and bending over backwards to ensure its investors keep cashing in on destruction. And who might those investors be? Oh, just the likes of BlackRock, Vanguard, and State Street—because nothing screams “commitment to sustainability” quite like stuffing their pockets with profits from an oil-slicked death spiral. read more

In the latest episode of “Corporate Giants Always Win,” New York City’s lawsuit against the holy trinity of environmental destruction—Exxon, BP, and Shell—was dismissed faster than you can say “greenwashing.” If you thought justice might take a stand against these polluting powerhouses, think again. Turns out, climate accountability in the U.S. courts is just a mirage, much like Shell’s commitment to renewable energy.

Shell – The Sin Stock That Keeps on Sinning

Posted by John Donovan: 15 Jan 25

They say money makes the world go round, but at Shell, it also makes the world burn, drown, and choke on toxic fumes. For decades, this greedy, ruthless oil giant has been the poster child for corporate malfeasance, environmental destruction, and whistleblower persecution. Let’s not mince words: Shell is not just a company; it’s an evil empire masquerading as an energy conglomerate, bankrolled by investors like BlackRock, who are apparently too busy counting their profits to notice the carnage. read more

…doubling down on a project already plagued by scandal and whistleblower revelations

Posted by John Donovan; 9 January 2025

Here we go again. Shell, the global grandmaster of environmental destruction and corporate greed, has announced its latest scheme to exploit every corner of the planet it can. This time, it’s the $2.5 billion Crux gas field development off the coast of Australia. Shell’s plan? Tie Crux to its controversial Prelude floating LNG facility—because nothing says “environmental responsibility” like doubling down on a project already plagued by scandal and whistleblower revelations read more

Shell’s Great LNG Fantasy: Greenwashing, Lower Profits, and Wall Street Dreams

Posted by John Donovan: 8 Jan 2025

Shell, the global poster child for corporate greed and environmental destruction, is back at it—doubling down on liquefied natural gas (LNG) while insisting it’s all part of their plan to save the planet. Spoiler: It’s not. The oil giant’s latest quarterly woes and shareholder revolts have laid bare the contradictions at the heart of its business strategy, exposing a company more committed to profits than its much-touted net-zero promises

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.

Shell’s Great Sprint to Nowhere: A Love Letter to Greed, Pollution, and Abandoning London

Oh, Shell. The benevolent overlord of oil spills, climate denial, and corporate greed is at it again. In what might be the least surprising development of the century, Shell’s chief executive, Wael Sawan, has announced that the company is considering ditching its London listing for the bright, deregulated allure of New York. Because, apparently, £152 billion isn’t enough for this juggernaut of destruction—they need more, damn it.

According to Sawan, Shell is on a “sprint” to boost its valuation and close the gap with American giants ExxonMobil and Chevron. Yes, those paragons of climate responsibility. And if London can’t fluff their valuation numbers to sufficiently stroke Shell’s ego by the end of 2025, they’re threatening to pack up their toys and play in the States. It’s like the corporate version of “if you don’t love me at my worst, you don’t deserve me at my best”—except it’s Shell, and their “best” is spewing carbon and pocketing record profits. read more

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.

Ah, Shell, that global paragon of corporate virtue (read: greed), is at it again—reminding the world that profit always comes first, no matter the cost. With a track record as smooth as an oil spill, Shell has managed to combine ruthless ambition, a touch of espionage, and an uncanny ability to slide through controversies unscathed. Let’s dive into the murky depths of corporate surveillance.

A Glimpse into Corporate Espionage

Imagine sitting in a piss-drenched doorway, pretending to be homeless, just to “eyeball” a target across the street. One moment you’re incognito, the next you’re suited up, tailing someone through the City and “ripping” their phone—a polite euphemism for illegally downloading its contents. This isn’t a spy movie; it’s just another day in the life of a private investigator. read more

WTF Shell? The Oil Giant’s Twisted Tango with Nigeria

Once again, Shell, the paragon of corporate ruthlessness and environmental degradation, proves there’s no mess too big to sweep under a rug made of oil-stained dollar bills. The Anglo-Dutch juggernaut, whose rap sheet includes everything from massive spills to good old-fashioned espionage through shadowy outfits like Hakluyt & Co., has pulled off another jaw-dropping manoeuvre in Nigeria.

Here’s the skinny: Shell just tied a shiny $5 billion investment in Nigeria’s offshore Bonga North project to the government greenlighting their exit from onshore oil operations in the Niger Delta—a region they’ve poisoned for decades. Bravo, Shell! Nothing screams corporate responsibility like strong-arming a country desperate for foreign investment. read more

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

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

Well, isn’t this just rich. Shell Plc, the oily overlord of environmental devastation, has finally managed to offload $2.4 billion worth of Nigerian assets to Renaissance Group, after being given the go-ahead by Nigeria’s oil minister. You know, the same oil minister who, just two months ago, hit the brakes on Shell’s attempt to bail on its onshore and shallow-water operations in the Niger Delta. But apparently, a couple of months—and maybe a few “persuasive” conversations—were all it took for Shell to get the approval it needed. read more

Shell: Because One Billion Barrels of Nigerian Oil Just Wasn’t Enough

Ah, Shell. The gift that keeps on giving… to its shareholders, at least. The planet? Local communities? Nigeria’s long-suffering environment? Oh, they’ll just have to suck it up—quite literally—because Shell’s back at it again with its shiny new toy: the Bonga North Oil Project.

That’s right, folks. Shell Nigeria Exploration and Production Co. Ltd. (SNEPCo)—Shell’s lovingly ruthless Nigerian arm—has given the go-ahead to drill, baby, drill in deep waters off Nigeria’s coast. Because when you’ve already sucked one billion barrels of oil out of a single deepwater field, you naturally look around and think, “What’s next? More barrels, obviously.” read more

WTF Shell? Pennsylvania Sacrificed on the Altar of Plastic Profits

Welcome to Monaca, Pennsylvania, where Shell has transformed an idyllic community into a 386-acre homage to pollution, hypocrisy, and “economic revitalization.” Step right up, folks, and marvel at the Shell Pennsylvania Petrochemicals Complex—a modern-day marvel that takes fracked gas, cracks it, and pumps out plastic pellets and pollution like it’s 2023’s hottest trend. Because who needs breathable air or drinkable water when you can have millions of tons of plastic?

Let’s meet Nadine Luci, a local resident turned involuntary test subject for Shell’s experiment in corporate gaslighting. She lives just two miles from the facility but practically needs a hazmat suit to step outside. “I have to live in a cocoon,” says Nadine, as she surveys the syrupy stench of corporate greed wafting through her town. Her tap water smells like dead fish, but it’s okay, because Shell generously provides… scholarships? Basketball courts? It’s like offering Band-Aids at a massacre. read more
