"Someone is going to get it"

LMAO. That carbon is staying in the ground. The people who paid for the rig are gonna get it in the shorts.


The drilling has been approved:

Despite the oil giant's rocky history in the Arctic region, last Monday the Obama administration conditionally approved Shell's summer plans to drill for oil in the Chukchi Sea, north of Alaska. Environmentalists are not happy, and neither are many in Seattle, whose port has become a home base for the two Shell oil rigs' operations. The Port of Seattle's commissioners took heat for their controversial decision to lease one of its piers to Shell, tying the progressive city to fossil fuel extraction and the potential for environmental catastrophe in the Arctic.

And the Shell rigs are going to dock in one of the West coast cities...........why not Seattle?
