Shell has had a near-death experience

The Times: City Diary: “Shell has had a near-death experience of its own of late and could probably do with some good PR.”

A CONSORTIUM controlled by Shell is handing out $2 million to fund continuing research into the Western Grey Whales of the Pacific. Sakhalin Energy, where Shell has a 55 per cent stake, is in trouble with the green lobby for plans to raise production of oil off Sakhalin Island, north of Japan, which is the whales’ summer feeding ground.

The species is endangered. Shell has had a near-death experience of its own of late and could probably do with some good PR. The research might even solve one continuing mystery, which is where the whales go in winter.
