OscailtResistance to Shell in Galway CityGalway S2S and Rossport Solidarity Camp members challenged the head of SEPIL, Michael Crothers, to answer for the crimes Shell has commited.
The Managing Director of Shell E&P Ireland, Michael Crothers, came to the NUI Galway Energy Night on the evening of Feb 28th. He was part of a PR delegation that promoted Shell's progress in attempting to bring the Corrib Gas Project on-stream. A group of local Galway Shelltosea activists and Rossport Solidarity Camp members with ethical objections to the Gas Project staged a peaceful protest to express their concerns. Shell has been allowed to remove 125,000 tonnes of peat bog from an area directly including, and surrounded by, EU Special Areas of Conservation. The Irish government has failed in its legal duty to protect the natural habitats upon which Shell are currently working. In relation to the negative environmental consequences of the CGP, Crother's response was to praise Shell's environmental record as "exemplary".

That would never of happened if shell did this project the right way at sea. Never mind all the dirt and what not that shell are digging up from thousands and millions of years of sediment that contains all sorts of bacteria an toxins, they, then drive the trucks though a lot of towns and villages all the way to Foxford and dumping it there, where are the safety officers cheeking the levels of dirt and dust all over our roads and at what level will they stop this Experiment on the communities that are suffering long chest infections due to dust on the streets . It's a god dam shame the Irish State will not finally stand with it's own Irish people and say enough, and take measures that no more loss of life or the shit that shell are digging up from 100 s of meters next to the bay and dusting the roads. Oh ! almost forgot the god dam dangerous gas pipeline that if that goes shell will just say it was an accident, like they always say, it should never of happened, but the pipelines do rupture all over the world, and Thousands are killed, so why are shell lying and say it can not happen here, when will enough be enough: <br />

Crothers is up to his eyes in trouble in Erris. His tunnel has gone 60 metres in 3 months and people are openly laughing about Shell's predicament, because they were shown, very clearly, at the last EPA hearing that they would encounter problems like they'd never had before. But they got their way and now the T.B.M is moving slower than a snail with a hernia
