Urgent action for individuals

I've just looked at your site for the first time today and I have to congratulate you on the great work!

Shell are an absolute disgrace, loading their director's bank accounts with millions of dollars at the expense of the quality of life of the people of Nigeria (and some might even argue the political stability of the country). That is even without considering the impact that the company has on climate change which is affecting millions of people worldwide! Companies such as Shell whose operations cause more problems for humanity than benefits should be stripped of the right to operate - simple as.

To be honest I mostly feel like a lone voice in the crowd, as people seem to go about their daily lives filled with the advertising and propaganda of rich companies. It is a huge shame that people are largely unaware of the real impacts of irresponsible businesses and unwilling to do anything to force them to change.

Looking at some of the action taken by people on this site gives me ecouragement that there are still lots of people out there who actually care about what happens in the world and are willing to do something to change it.
