Hahahahahaha, a simple and beautiful leftist reaction.

Would you call me a listed energy company that allows loss-making projects to continue after investments are made? Every listed company aims to make a profit and satisfy its shareholders, including Shell.

If this does not work for any reason, difficult choices must be made.

In my opinion, there is a major role for the EU and regional governments to make green energy a high priority in investments, and fortunately they are also working hard on this: CSDR, ESRS and ESG in general.

Unfortunately, this will not have a real impact until 2028, when companies listed outside the EU that do business in the EU will have to report on their entire chain.

Germany, France and Italy have been a bit stubborn and asleep for the past 15 years, and when BYD came along and really made sure that the automotive industry was green, they continued to exploit existing technologies.

Now that the EU has access to cheap or non-Chinese electric cars, the EU will impose an import tax on the same automakers due to pressure from the US and economic reasons.

Overall, this is a very interesting paradox caused by geopolitical tensions, but now to blame Shell for all this and that they realize that making profits ensures general prosperity, which is something they enjoy every day, is a misconception.
