I boycott Exxon / Mobile. I'd rather push my car to the nearest BP/Amaco or Shell than pay E/M. Their environmentally destructive history is unimaginable.


We were only asked to mention one, so I didn't list Shell, but I've heard that they are engaged in some bad environmental exercises. Clear cutting rain forests IIRC. It was just a blurb I heard on NPR, but ever since then, I don't buy gas there. A bit irresponsible on my part because I don't know the specifics and NPR isn't exactly in line with my out look on the world, but looking at this site, not only is there some truth to it, but it seems it'd be hard to find an oil company that doesn't engage in something unethical. I don't hate oil companies for making money, but (real) environmental concerns and especially animal testing are reason enough for me to look for another company.
