Brace yourselves—Shell is back with yet another self-serving prediction, gleefully announcing that global demand for liquefied natural gas will skyrocket by 60% by 2040. Because, apparently, the only way to “transition” to cleaner energy is to double down on fossil fuels. According to Shell’s latest annual LNG outlook, this demand surge will be driven by economic growth in Asia, AI’s insatiable energy appetite, and the ever-magical goal of “cutting emissions”—which, of course, in Shell-speak means burning more gas while pretending it’s green.
Shell’s LNG Fantasy: More Pollution, More Profits, and the Same Old Lies
BP and Shell’s £26 Billion Profit Bonanza: While the World Burns, Big Oil Cashes In
BP and Shell’s combined 2024 profits have soared to an astonishing £26.2 billion, more than double the UK’s so-called commitment to international climate finance, which limps in at a mere £11.6 billion spread across four years. This stark contrast, highlighted by new analysis from NGO Global Justice Now, lays bare the absurdity of a system that allows fossil fuel corporations to rake in billions while governments make weak, inadequate climate pledges.
According to Izzie McIntosh, climate campaign manager at Global Justice Now, the numbers tell a grotesque story: “When two fossil fuel companies together can earn over £26 billion in one year alone, we really have gone through the looking glass.” Meanwhile, the true suffering in 2024 has been felt by those drowning under the weight of soaring energy bills or watching their homes go up in flames—quite literally—thanks to the ever-worsening climate crisis fueled by the fossil fuel industry.
Shell Buys More Oil Fields: Because Who Needs a Planet Anyway?
Shell. You’ve done it again—bought more of the problem while pretending to be part of the solution.
In the latest episode of “Shell Expands Its Empire of Environmental Destruction,” ConocoPhillips has announced it will be offloading its interests in the Ursa and Europa Fields to—wait for it—Shell, for the bargain price of $735 million. Because nothing says “streamlining” quite like selling off oil fields to one of the most notorious polluters on the planet.
ConocoPhillips, fresh from its $22.5 billion corporate feeding frenzy—also known as its takeover of Marathon Oil—is now frantically shedding “non-core” assets to help lower its debt. It recently offloaded some Lower 48 assets for a casual $600 million, and now, Shell gets to expand its death grip on fossil fuel production.
Should BP and Shell merge?
If the goal is to accelerate environmental devastation, lay off thousands of workers, and cement Big Oil’s death grip on global energy policy, then sure—go right ahead.
Nothing screams “brighter future” like two of the UK’s most notorious polluters joining forces to double down on destruction. That’s right—some investment bankers and analysts, never ones to let a good environmental catastrophe go to waste, are floating the idea of a BP-Shell merger. The goal? To create a “national champion” capable of competing with the likes of France’s TotalEnergies and American titans ExxonMobil and Chevron. Because, obviously, the world needs another corporate Goliath ramping up oil extraction while sprinkling in just enough greenwashing to keep up appearances.
Shell + BP: The Merger That No One (Except Greedy Investors) Wants
The rumour mill is churning once again, and this time it’s spitting out an absolute gem: a possible Shell-BP merger. That’s right—two of the most unapologetically polluting, ruthlessly profit-driven oil behemoths are being whispered about in the same breath as “consolidation” and “global energy leadership.” Clearly, what the world needs right now is a bigger super-polluter with even more unchecked power.
Wall Street’s Fantasy, The World’s Nightmare
According to industry chatter, Shell and BP could merge to create a single European oil colossus with a market cap of around $300 billion. The goal? Competing with the likes of ExxonMobil and Chevron—because nothing screams progress like two of the worst climate offenders joining forces to crush the competition.
Shell + BP: Because One Greedy, Polluting Oil Giant Just Isn’t Enough
When you thought the oil industry couldn’t possibly consolidate its power and environmental destruction any further, here comes the latest masterstroke of corporate greed: merging Shell and BP into one colossal UK-based oil behemoth. The world needs a single, more powerful sin stock to spew carbon, lobby against climate action, and pad the pockets of shareholders like BlackRock and Vanguard.
Elliott to the Rescue—But Not for You
This little gem of a scheme is being whispered about thanks to Elliott Investment Management, a hedge fund known for its brutal activist tactics. Elliott recently scooped up a nearly 5% stake in BP for a casual £3.8 billion and is now agitating for ‘change’—which in hedge-fund speak means more oil, fewer environmental obligations, and whatever drives the stock price up in the short term.
Shell’s Oil Slick Justice For Spilling 1.5 Million Tons of Crude
Shell. The ever-benevolent corporate giant tirelessly works to maximize shareholder returns while generously bestowing oil spills upon communities that never asked for them. The latest twist in this decades-long environmental horror show? The Ogale and Bille communities of Nigeria—just 50,000 people whose land, water, and livelihoods have been poisoned by Shell’s operations—are finally getting their day in a UK courtroom. And naturally, Shell is fighting tooth and nail to avoid paying for the devastation it caused.
Profits Over Principles: Shell’s Deep Ties to Apartheid South Africa
By John Donovan: 19 Feb 2025
For decades, Royal Dutch Shell has carefully curated a public image of corporate responsibility and progressive values. Yet, like so many multinational corporations, its historical record tells a much darker story—one of complicity, profit-seeking, and moral bankruptcy. Among the most damning chapters in Shell’s history is its deep involvement in South Africa during the apartheid era, where the company put financial gain above human rights, aiding and abetting a racist regime that systematically oppressed millions.
Shell’s Latest Con: Selling Stolen Oil Fields Like a Used Car Lot Clearance
Shell’s fingerprints are all over the brutal military crackdown that led to the execution of Ken Saro-Wiwa and eight other activists in 1995. The bones of thousands more Ogoni people—murdered, displaced, and left to suffer—are a permanent testament to Shell’s legacy.
Ah, Shell. The oil giant that never met a community it couldn’t exploit, an environment it couldn’t pollute, or a public trust it couldn’t shatter. This time, the corporate behemoth—backed by some of the world’s most “ethical” investors like BlackRock and Vanguard—is at it again, pulling off what can only be described as a multimillion-dollar magic trick: selling off Ogoni oil fields in Nigeria for a neat $2.4 billion. Because nothing screams corporate responsibility quite like profiting off stolen resources, right?
BP + Shell: A Merger of Big Oil, Bigger Lies, and Corporate Espionage
(article exposing Shell BP spying operations)
BP + Shell: A Merger of Big Oil and Corporate Espionage: When Spying on Environmentalists Just Isn’t Enough, Merge and Double the Surveillance!
Forget the usual corporate greed—if BP and Shell merge, they won’t just be pooling their oil assets, they’ll be consolidating their dirty tricks, too. Because what’s better than one morally bankrupt fossil fuel giant? Two, working together to crush dissent, spy on activists, and ensure the climate crisis is well-funded for decades to come.
BP + Shell: More Than Just Oil Profiteers—They’re Professional Spymasters, Too
Both BP and Shell have spent decades using the shady London-based intelligence firm Hakluyt to spy on activists, journalists, and anyone else who dares to question their environmental destruction. While Greenpeace and other climate groups were busy warning the world about the climate crisis, BP and Shell were busy infiltrating them.
BP + Shell: A Marriage Made in Climate Hell
A Reunion of Greed, Pollution, and Corporate Self-Destruction: Investors are openly salivating over a Shell takeover.
Move over, environmental concerns—the oil industry’s biggest villains are plotting a reunion tour. If BP and Shell merge, they’ll be reviving the spirit of Shell-Mex and BP Ltd, their old joint venture that ended in 1975. But this time, instead of just selling oil, they’re going full supervillain mode, consolidating power, wrecking the planet, and probably running off to Wall Street for good measure.
BP’s Identity Crisis: From Greenwashing to Giving Up Entirely
BP is falling apart at the seams. Just a few years ago, it was busy pretending to care about renewable energy, net-zero emissions, and a climate-friendly future. Former CEO Bernard Looney promised BP would cut oil and gas production by 40% by 2030 while investing billions in wind and solar. Investors were “jazzed,” and for a moment, it looked like BP might actually be trying to reform itself.
BP + Shell: The Mega-Merger That Would Create a Greedy, Climate-Wrecking Monster
Because One Oil Giant Destroying the Planet Isn’t Enough!
The City is in meltdown mode over an unfolding crisis: corporate giants abandoning London like rats fleeing a sinking ship.
First, Unilever’s ice-cream business ditches the UK for Amsterdam, and now the vultures are circling BP and Shell for the mother of all oil mergers.
A National Champion or Just a Bigger Corporate Menace?
Shell’s CEO, Wael Sawan, has been whining that his company’s London-listed shares are “undervalued”, strongly hinting that the UK isn’t good enough for him. And now, the talk of the town is whether a merged BP-Shell mega-corp would keep its listing in London—or pack its bags for the land of unchecked corporate greed: Wall Street.
Would a combined BP-Shell keep its primary listing in the UK or move to the US? Well, what do you think?
BP + Shell: The Unholy Merger
BP + Shell: The Unholy Merger That Could Create the Ultimate Greed Machine: Because One Corporate Villain Just Isn’t Enough!
What’s worse than one greedy, polluting oil giant hellbent on squeezing every last drop of profit from a burning planet? Two of them merging into a mega-monster that could go toe-to-toe with the world’s worst climate wreckers. That’s right, bankers are reportedly scheming to merge BP and Shell, creating a single British oil behemoth so powerful it could bulldoze past competition and continue its relentless extraction with even less oversight.
Why Merge? Profits Over Planet, Obviously
Top investment bankers, ever eager to engineer disasters for their own financial gain, are eyeing a BP-Shell megamerger to create one national champion of corporate greed. The goal? Compete with other environmental supervillains like ExxonMobil, Chevron, and TotalEnergies—because apparently, the world doesn’t have enough giant oil companies ignoring climate destruction for shareholder returns.
NOPSEMA Slaps Shell with a Damning Safety Notice for Prelude FLNG
Because Who Needs Worker Safety When There’s Money to Be Made?
Shell Australia has been officially called out (again) for its staggering incompetence and complete disregard for worker safety after an inspection of its disaster-prone Prelude FLNG facility revealed that workers were being exposed to hazardous, cancer-causing gases.
The National Offshore Petroleum Safety and Environmental Management Authority (NOPSEMA) has issued Improvement Notice No. 1967, making it painfully clear that Shell has been ignoring serious health risks for years and will likely continue to do so unless forced to take action.
What Did NOPSEMA Find?
Let’s break down the most alarming findings from the regulator’s scathing report:
• Shell Has Known About This for Years
Workers have been reporting strong odours and health symptoms for an extended period, yet Shell has done nothing to fix the issue. Employees have experienced lung and eye irritation, which are classic symptoms of hydrogen sulphide and benzene exposure—but rather than act, Shell management has ignored complaints and let the risks persist.
Shell’s Prelude to Disaster: Workers Exposed to Toxic Gas, Regulator Issues Warning
Shell’s Prelude to Disaster: Workers Exposed to Toxic Gas, Regulator Issues Warning. Because What’s a Little Cancer When There’s Profit to Be Made? In Shell’s world, workers are expendable.
In a development that will shock absolutely no one familiar with Shell’s abysmal safety record, the Australian offshore regulator NOPSEMA has issued an improvement notice after workers aboard Shell’s troubled Prelude FLNG facility reported lung and eye problems from exposure to hazardous gas. Yes, the same Prelude facility that has been an over-budget, unreliable, and unsafe floating disaster since day one.
NOPSEMA’s notice calls on Shell to fix the problem (translation: stop poisoning your workers), after yet another hazardous gas leak was reported. But given Shell’s legendary track record of prioritizing profits over human lives, don’t hold your breath—unless, of course, you’re a Prelude worker, in which case holding your breath might be your only defense against cancer-causing fumes.
Shell and Exxon’s Gas Profits Shake Groningen—Literally
Nothing Says “Sustainable Business” Like an Earthquake Every Few Months
It’s another day, another earthquake in Groningen, where decades of reckless gas extraction by Shell and ExxonMobil’s joint venture, NAM, have left the ground as unstable as their ethical standards. This time, a 2.2 magnitude quake hit the town of Usquert just after midnight, shaking homes, rattling windows, and waking residents with a hard, dull thud. Coincidentally, that’s also the sound of Shell executives ignoring accountability.
“Induced Earthquakes”: Just a Fancy Term for Corporate Destruction
The KNMI meteorological institute wasted no time in confirming what everyone already knew: this was an “induced earthquake,” meaning it wasn’t some random act of nature—it was a direct consequence of Shell and ExxonMobil sucking every last drop of gas from the earth, leaving behind a crumbling foundation.
