Where is the integrity and morality of these oil barons? They are willing to pollute the oceans,destroy the enviro.,eradicate wild life to point of extinction and WITH NO moral conscience.The sole interest is maximise profits at the expense of flora,fauna and the human race and they are GETTING AWAY with by lawmakers,lobbyist and govt. offficials for PROFITS undetected.If the common folks everywhere don't get up and protest of this uncheck destruction by oil companies than we are to be blame from our silence.The power of ONE to effect the positive when things go wrong can change an entire world.
