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.

As always, Shell is cordially invited to point out any factual inaccuracies, although we suspect they’re too busy counting their rising profits to bother.

By including Shell in the Business Council, the UK Prime Minister sends a message that big polluters can have a seat at the table, regardless of their track record.
…this oil giant, with its impeccable track record of putting profits first, wants you to believe that most spills in the Niger Delta are caused by pipeline vandalism and crude oil theft. How innovative of them to recycle excuses!
Shell’s new leader takes a stand against the growing green movement, making it clear that the company’s commitment to the environment takes a backseat to their insatiable thirst for profits. Wael Sawan, who assumed the role of CEO earlier this year, has sent shockwaves through the eco-conscious community by announcing Shell’s abandonment of any plans to reduce oil production until 2030.
In a stunning display of corporate arrogance, Shell has decided to throw caution to the wind and abandon any pretense of caring about the environment. The oil giant’s latest move? Scrap their plan to reduce oil production, a feeble attempt to appear eco-friendly, and instead maintain their current levels of pollution until the end of the decade. How generous of them.
Sawan has also made it clear that any business not making enough money will be swiftly discarded. So much for their commitments to renewable energy.
