Spare me the bumper sticker defense and answer me this. Since you are referring to demand, would these companies invest in new equipment, patents, lobbying(political favor), and give up their subsidies and dirty investments if we demanded clean sustainable energy ? Didn't think so because we've been demanding sustainable clean energy for decades. These companies won't give up their fat profit margins and will continue pedaling poison for profit.
You're correct. The poisoned in Bopal didn't have a voice. The natives in Alaska have been shortchanged in court out of much of their original settlement in the Exxon Valdez tragedy. And BP surely has put off their culpability in the Gulf of Mexico under the "proprietary" nature of their dispersants claim.
Why should the people of the Valley be proactive when clued in on the illegal activities of industry ? We ought to take our crumbs and shut up about it, right ?
Was my sarcasm not apparent with all the blahblahblahs ? Sorry if it fell on deaf ears when I thought I had layed it on thick enough.
Or perhaps yours was a knee jerk response to you expecting the usual browbeating that comes on these pages from the usual faux news cronies ? That's what I was trying to point out anyhow....
Well Ytown native, let me be the first. You "libtard", marxist, commy loving spewer of left wing propaganda, why don't you give up your car, blahblahblah, while trying to kill capitalism,blahblahblah. These companies have your best interest at heart and should not be regulated at all...blahblah all the way to the bank.
Cronies or pawns of cronies-all you shills. Follow the money to hell.
One was an accident. One was company /industry policy. The driver of the tanker was cited and may have trouble finding work in the same field. The owner of the company will be saluted cuz he got 'er done despite the state shutting down the injection well. Buckle up y-town, it's only just begun.
Look how Exxon's culpability has dropped in Alaska, or Chevron's in Bopal. Staffs of corporate attorneys remain while public interest and pressure has waned. What's left is a wasteland. What's gained are short term profits that are quickly exported out of town.
The rules are the rules. Glory is the only reason he wears the uniform in this way. It does nothing as a deterrent and it can even be argued that the "militarization" of our schools is the wrong approach or message to be sent.
Gunny, I applaud your honor and faith to the code you swore allegiance to, without regard to your own personal viewpoint or agenda. And you have conducted yourself here, as a gentleman. The same cannot be said regarding the name calling et al that those taking the other side have fallen victim to. It demonstrates the shortcomings in their reasoning in the methods they choose.
^^Love this sort of reasoning. Reality is that rising temps will bring on events comparable to a man made Ice Age. How warm do you think THAT will be ?

Cheaper to ask for forgiveness than permission.

First the crumbs for us. Next the poison.

Dishonesty is a by-product of the fracking industry.
