Shell/Esso's Kittiwake platform, North Sea (1996)

As I write, Shell is working to contain an oil spill off the Aberdeenshire coast that is already, reportedly, the worst spill in UK waters for over a decade.

Volunteers hold "climate crime scene" tape

On the day the world finally enacted Kyoto, the oil industry tried to hold a huge party to say, 'we don't care, it's business as usual'. We hope for at least one evening they've been forced to face the reality of what they're doing.

Industry bigwigs face huge protest at defiant party planned for day Kyoto became law. The international oil industry's most prestigious annual gathering was disrupted tonight after Greenpeace volunteers blockaded a £50-a-plate dinner at London's Grosvenor House Hotel.

The defiant function had been scheduled to take place on the day the Kyoto Protocol came into force and was set to host middle-eastern energy ministers and the heads of some of the world's most powerful companies.

There's nothing nastier than a wounded tiger. Esso is licking its wounds as Russia moves closer to ratifying the Kyoto Protocol. But the world's number one environmental criminal is still fighting tooth and nail to deny the truth about climate change. The US government is increasingly isolated and Esso is out to ensure its workers keep it that way by voting for US politicians who oppose action against global warming.
