Shell oil - getting nuked in their online competition

Someone is going to get their arse fired! That's the biggest collection of trolling I've seen on a corporate website for some time! :o
 
Is it really a genuine, official Shell site?

Surely it would be hosted on shell.com, and not on arcticready.com?

I doubt that it is Shell who own it :) Can't be long until they'll be threatening action on the owner!
 
bah humbag, turns out it's not an official a Shell site, but wait for it...... an elaborate set-up by greenpeace. Still hilarious - can't imagine Shell being best pleased!
 
Ah well... I'll remember the environmental message of those photos the next time I stick £90 worth of V Power into the 5er. :oops:
 
Greenpeace have been hoax marketing for a while, pretending to be Shell on twitter etc.
