After looking at these pics http://www.boston.com/bigpicture/2010/05/oil_reaches_louisiana_shores.html
and seeing these videos http://edition.cnn.com/video/?/video/us/2010/05/25/jvm.daily.issue.oil.spill.cnn

it is surely mine and my friends and whole family's vow never to support BP stations and their convenience stores. They complain about accidents do happen and is this not a mass murder of the microlife, and ecology of a small portion of the world? all in aid of what, oil? the money spent here wasted could help how many of the poor and starving, or polar bears, etc. they same finance used here could easily be used for clean renewable energy research and implimentation... heck even eskom's puny loan from the world bank could hae come out of this tenfold.

My opinion nobody should support BP ,they are not beyond petroleum, they are irresponsible and only care for making money.

who else agrees?

Sounds like pretty much every company in the world to me. Will you be boycotting them too?

why not, the power is in the hands of the consumer, and we can all vote with our wallets. instead of being like sheep and listening to their marketing bits, if we all stand together we can make the difference

If you did you would boycott every industrial product in the world. You know the ones spewing tons of CO2 & other gases into the atmosphere...? You would in fact boycott your car to start with... that thing causes untold damage to the environment. And typing on your computer...the electricity powering that thing pumps tons of CO2 into the atmosphere every second.
 
lol... shame.. accidents hapen, not like they planned the leak... at least they trying to stop it.

What exactly will you be putting in your petrol tank, then? And don't say Shell.

So which petroleum company are you going to support. Shell, Total or Caltex?

Total: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/7192085.stm

Shell: http://www.businessgreen.com/business-green/news/2229998/shell-dutch-lawsuit-nigerian

Caltex (owned by Chevron Corporation): http://www.treehugger.com/files/2010/04/18000-gallons-oil-spill-louisiana-wildlife-refuge.php

They all spill oil, so you're not going to support BP who is doing a good job of cleaning up?

I am sorry everyone, I do apologise to the headless sheep who don't care about the damage being done that respond here with their sarcastic remarks, This is a higher grade post, and i really really apologise that you do not understand the concept. Let me put this in much simpler terms: If everyone boycotts one company at the time together, then they have two choices, either go under or listen to what the people want. if they dont choose to listen to what people want, then they will crumble. when they do give people what they want, then everyone can start supporting them again and target the next bunch of companies doing wrong...Rome wasn't built in a day, one at a time, starting from the worst and work your way up.

To answer your question we only fill SASOL, when BP decides to change business ventures into only renewable energy instead of oil then only will we start supporting them.

The more people do this the more effective it will be, the more sarcastic uncaring selfish headless sheep that keep criticising do not have the ability to see the long term effects,
 
**** this. If there's a BP stationa and I need gas, I'll pull in. Same goes for when I'm hungry or need someting, and the BP store is there, I'll go in. Your poor piss-ant boycott of BP will do NOTHING to change what happened. Oh yes, since you're on about money making scum, why not boycott everything?
