When you see the blue UN helemts in your country, you have already lost it.
How will the UN take over America? With Bureaucracy. Woke politics, Climate change. Human rights. Racism. and more.
‘Climate change’ refers to significant changes in global temperatures and weather patterns over time. While climate has changed throughout Earth’s history due to natural factors. Even though Dubai can cloud seed the air at anytime and make it rain.
Climate change claims that carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases result in more frequent and intense weather events such as hurricanes, droughts, and floods, rising sea levels due to melting polar ice, and shifts in wildlife habitats. The reason? For carbon credits.
Carbon Tax credits will be the new way to charge and Tax citizens if it’s not canceled quick.
One Example is Shell Gas.
Shell’s most infamous marketing deception revolves around its false environmental credentials, particularly through promoting carbon offsetting and carbon capture programs. The “Drive CO2 Neutral” campaign, which began in 2019, promised that emissions from fuel purchases could be offset, presenting an image of Shell as environmentally responsible. However, this was later exposed as misleading, resulting in legal challenges. Nine law students took Shell to court, asserting that the ads were deceiving consumers, and they won, forcing Shell to end the campaign. This case brought to light the practice of greenwashing, where companies overstate their green initiatives without substantial action.
Another significant aspect of Shell’s deceptive marketing was their involvement in the sale of millions of carbon credits supposedly linked to carbon capture and storage (CCS) projects that either never materialized or were grossly overstated in their benefits. Investigations revealed Shell was selling “phantom” credits, banking on future CO2 reductions that never happened. This was a prime example of greenwashing, where financial gains were made through environmental promises that were not kept, drawing considerable criticism from environmentalists and the public for misleading consumers and diverting attention from the real need for carbon reduction.
Moreover, Shell’s past acknowledgment of climate change, uncovered through documents dating back to the 1980s, adds another dimension to their marketing deceit. These documents demonstrated that Shell, alongside other oil giants like Exxon, knew of the connection between fossil fuels and global warming but chose to keep this quiet while publicly casting doubt on climate science. This dichotomy between what was known internally and what was communicated externally has been a significant point of critique regarding Shell’s marketing practices, aimed at preserving consumer confidence and regulatory freedom while continuing with business as usual despite knowing the climate implications.
In summary, Shell’s greatest marketing deception is not defined by a single incident but by a series of actions that include misleading claims about carbon neutrality, the sale of ineffective or non-existent carbon credits, and a history of climate change denial or skepticism. These practices have not only tarnished their reputation but also underscored the broader problem of corporate accountability in the context of the climate crisis.
