"Sells its soul" may overstate a tad. It's feature-style reporting, with an edge of gush (I mean, "style") to convey the excitement of the predators conspiring to be the winners (at what cost to every other living thing?). I will certainly agree that it's no fun to read.
Wherever they've gone, the oil companies have left environmental disasters. Here Shell wants to drill with no viable spill plan. What does this say to us? That we are idiots!
