COMMENT POSTED BY JOHN DONOVAN ON THE SHELL SPONSORED “NEXT GENERATION ENERGY” WEBSITE

Talking about wind, this blog site sports an impressive roll call of esteemed expert contributors including William Connolley, Samuel Hazen, James Hrynyshyn, Solomon Hsiang, Erin Johnson, Sheril Kirshenbaum, Scott Mackenzie and Joseph Romm.
I wonder if any of these people of integrity and high repute are feeling queasy about being linked to a blog sponsored by the oil giant Shell, which has been censored by advertising regulators in the UK and the Netherlands for blatant acts of greenwashing; Shell has been found guilty on three counts thus far.

Deterding was an honored associate and supporter of Hitler and a personal friend of Goring.
Deterding was the guest of Hitler during a four day summit meeting at Berchtesgaden. Sir Henri and Hitler both had ambitions on Russian oil fields. Only an honored personal guest would be rewarded with a private four day meeting at Hitler’s mountain top retreat.
