***IMPORTANT NOTE: The judge has just postponed the trial ONE day... the trial will now open on Wednesday May 27th.

On May 26, 2009, multinational oil giant Shell will stand trial in United States federal court to answer to charges that it conspired in human rights abuses – including murder – in Nigeria in the 1990s. But Shell’s crimes didn’t end there. We’re campaigning to demand that Shell cease and desist the human rights and corporate climate crimes it continues to commit.
Shell must come clean:
* Stop gas flaring in Nigeria, a practice devastating to the environment and human health, and a significant contributor to global warming.
* Disclose its role in the abuses committed against the Ogoni people in Nigeria, including the execution of Ken Saro-Wiwa and the Ogoni 9.
ShellGuilty is turning up the heat on Shell and pressing for an end to its gas flaring in Nigeria, an environmental abuse which Ken Saro-Wiwa and many other Ogoni ultimately gave their lives trying to stop. Please visit www.ShellGuilty.com to sign up for campaign updates and become a part of efforts to turn up the heat on Shell.
The ShellGuilty campaign is a coalition made up of groups working in North America, Europe, and Nigeria. It includes Friends of the Earth [www.foei.org], Oil Change International [www.priceofoil.org], and the Remember Saro-Wiwa project [www.remembersarowiwa.com] of UK-based PLATFORM [www.platformlondon.org]

Bout time ! Can we not try them for murder ? And sentence their corporation to death ? Perhaps give it to the nigerians who deserve compensation ... That would be justice .

I think the ad delivered the message straight to the point and exposes gas flaring.
