I don’t know about you but I’m sure glad the chief exec of Shell cares about our futures…

The world’s need for fossil fuels is “desperate”, Shell’s chief executive told the BBC.

    Dangerous… To their profits. Not so dangerous to the rest of us

    How much money do these people need?

      Need hasn’t been a factor for these types of people ever. It’s not about amount in terms of survival, it’s a high score system. Earn more than the one who came before you, gain over other companies, get noted in some top # company scoreboard.

      The entire system is set up to award this aggressive, destructive behavior as success. The largest change in recent times is the numbers getting so massive that it takes the most destructive and cutthroat policies to even get close to out doing those who came before.

        I intellectually understand the concept but personally cannot grasp it. The rise of the billionaire and the staggering record profits of some of these companies is just beyond the pale.

          And that’s exactly why you’d never be a billionaire, it requires you to embrace that concept. It’s disgusting.

            Hah, billionaires are an immoral concept in general. Should never have existed
