BP Refinery in Texas Called Biggest Polluter


The nation's worst polluting plant is the BP PLC oil refinery where 15 workers died in an explosion last year, raising questions about whether the company has been underreporting toxic emissions.

BP's Texas City refinery released three times as much pollution in 2004 as it did in 2003, according to the most recent data from the Environmental Protection Agency.

The increase at BP was so large that it accounted for the bulk of a 15 percent increase in refinery emissions nationwide in 2004, the highest level since 2000.

The company is investigating whether it has been accurately documenting pollution, the Houston Chronicle reported on Sunday. There could be more federal fines levied against the energy giant if mistakes are found.

1. They're selling gilded shit, is all

When a corporation spends a FORTUNE trying to brand an idea, and NOTHING MORE, in consumers' pliable little heads, that's when one's bullshit detector should start shrieking.

They don't love you, they don't care about you, they just want you to buy THEIR shit so they can further enrich themselves.

4. It reminds me what crappy commercials they have.

NO ONE talks like those actors - passing off scripted sentences like they are just "making it up on the spot."

9. Wanna hear something ironic?

We just bought a Ford Escape Hybrid over the weekend and when I went to put gas it in, the gas cap has the lovely BP flower with "We recommend BP" written above it.
