SHELL: THANKS FOR THE MUSIC - NO THANKS FOR DROPPING RENEWABLES

I can't say I'm surprised by this news: Shell is dropping the vast majority of their renewable energy portfolio. After meeting their Chief Executive, Jeroen van der Veer a few years back at their annual general meeting, I certainly didn't get the sense that their commitment to the environment was anything other than a public relations effort.

While I'm sure that many of Shell's employees care deeply about the environment, our coast, and the future of the climate, I think this story demonstrates that their corporate leadership really isn't motivated by anything other than the short term bottom line. But hey, why should they care about rising sea levels? They own the tallest building in Louisiana.
