GREENWASH GUERILLAS TO GREET BP CHAIRMAN, CHATHAM HOUSE, LONDON, 7.2.06

05-02-2006 20:32

There is rising concern about the flood-threatening levels of greenwash that will be seeping from The Royal Institute of International Affairs (RIIA), also known as Chatham House (1), this coming Tuesday February 7th 2006, when BP Chairman Peter Sutherland will be speaking there on 'The future of the World Trade Organisation in addressing sustainable development’ (2). (What we like about these guys is their bone dry sense of humour.) With delicious yet appalling irony, February 7th is also likely to see BP announce record quarterly profits.
