Climate change summit hijacked by biggest polluters, critics claim

http://www.guardian.co.uk/business/2009/may/24/climate-change-polluters-shell



A vital meeting in Copenhagen this weekend that will help shape the agenda for the most important climate change talks since the Kyoto protocol has been hijacked by some of the biggest polluters in the world, critics claimed today.

Among those attending the World ­Business Summit on Climate Change is Shell, which has just been named by environmentalists on the basis of new research as "the most carbon-intensive oil company in the world".

1. No surprise here. they have already corrupted
(as in corporates) just about everything else for profit.
Piratizing water supplies, industrial farming, ad naseum. ad infinitum.
We are literally going to have to band together and drown the corpses like unwanted puppies(not that I would ever drown puppies, our girls are all rescue one way or another)
Evil greedy humans, since it can be proven they are harmful to all around them, it's not much of an issue.
