La pub écologique de Shell jugée «mensongère»

Le groupe se vantait de contribuer au développement durable dans un projet d'exploitation de sables bitumeux. Selon l'autorité britannique de régulation de la publicité (ASA), la publicité de Shell utilise le terme «ambigu» de développement durable sans donner «d'éléments qui montrent comment Shell maîtrise concrètement ses émissions de CO2 dans ses projets de sables bitumineux»... L'exploitation des sables bitumineux, source non conventionnelle de pétrole présente en grande quantité dans la province canadienne de l'Alberta, rencontre l'opposition des écologistes. Ils dénoncent son impact sur les milieux naturels et les émissions de gaz à effet de serre qu'elle entraîne.

Ecological Ad from Shell Deemed Deceptive

A British organization charged with regulating truth in advertising has criticized Shell's advertising about its planned exploitation of tar sands, an unconventional source of petroleum found in great quantity in Alberta, Canada. Shell's language was judged ambiguous regarding the effect these operations will have on global warming.
