What people are saying about Oil

  • i agree with what you're trying to say, however the video does nothing to quantify the actual scale of flaring in the niger delta which is the main environmental issue at hand. bar the comments about the local communities having no say, virtually everything quote could be said to be true of any flaring operation eg grangemouth in fife, where flaring is highly controlled and minimised and is only present for safety purposes. more generally there are manyof these videos which vaguely detail the outline of an issue without actually managing to define the problem at hand. out of context this video fails to even explain the issue - without prior knowledge of the circumstaces in the niger delta you gain no understanding of them and it is understanding and education that is needed to invoke change.

  • Nice! Particularly like the Crime Scene tape.

  • Its about time!
