“This is a massive blow to Shell’s Arctic ambitions,” said John Sauven, executive director of Greenpeace UK told the Guardian. “Shell had already lost the case for Arctic drilling in the court of public opinion – today they have lost the case in a court of law as well.”

Shell’s plans to drill for oil in the Arctic’s Chukchi Sea have been handed a major setback by a U.S appeals court which ruled that the Department of the Interior had underestimated the potential environment impact. The courts ordered the federal government to do a new assessment.
Judge William Fletcher of the 9th Circuit Court in San Francisco ruled that the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) estimate that Shell would only extract one billion barrels was far too low. In the court opinion that Fletcher authored, he said that the numbers were “arbitrary and capricious” and ordered the agency to re-do the environmental analysis based “on the full range of likely production if oil production were to occur.”
Royal Dutch Shell conspired directly with Hitler, financed the Nazi Party, was anti-Semitic and sold out its own Dutch Jewish employees to the Nazis. Shell had a close relationship with the Nazis during and after the reign of Sir Henri Deterding, an ardent Nazi, and the founder and decades long leader of the Royal Dutch Shell Group. His burial ceremony, which had all the trappings of a state funeral, was held at his private estate in Mecklenburg, Germany. The spectacle (photographs below) included a funeral procession led by a horse drawn funeral hearse with senior Nazis officials and senior Royal Dutch Shell directors in attendance, Nazi salutes at the graveside, swastika banners on display and wreaths and personal tributes from Adolf Hitler and Reichsmarschall, Hermann Goring. 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.
