Shell greenwashes itself as a sustainable company when in reality it is the dirtiest oil producer of all, said Ben Schreiber of Friends of the Earth. As evidenced by Shells lobbying activities on the flawed climate bill that passed the House last Friday, the company has been instrumental in weakening climate legislation while claiming to care about the environment. read more

When Jeroen van der Veer took the helm of Royal Dutch Shell five years ago, the company was mired in an accounting scandal involving its reporting of oil and gas reserves, a flap that nearly ended its century-long independence.
