Shellshock on the island terrified by oil giants pipeline.
The UK firm will make billions from one of the world's
biggest gas project. But what will it mean for the people
and environment on Sakhalin.

Methinks we can assume doom and disaster along with loads
of greenwash ???...

Shell are also tying to build a gas pipeline and refinary at Rossport, Erris, Co. Mayo in the West of Ireland. An area of outstanding natural beauty and environmental significance.
But they're encounter stong local opposition . See Irish Indymedia for reports on the gathering and rally against Shell' last weekend at Rossport:
