I’d shop there, if I knew for a fact where they were buying their oil from.
It’s even more bullshit idea than Fairtrade. They will decide who is supporting terrorism and who’s not. I’m wondering where iraqui oil would be. I think after it was acuired by Shell and others it is now crystal clear.
I guess the only gas company that doesn’t buy gas from the middle east is HESS.
Might as well go to a HESS station.
It’s a good marketing idea but it’s ultimately meaningless. As long as the world petroleum market remains integrated, it really doesn’t matter where each individual barrel is produced. Most of the gas you’re buying probably doesn’t come from the middle east, but your purchase is still ensuring that the Iranian Mullahs are getting sixty dollars for their barrel.

Would you say shopping at these places would be more or less effective than signing a non-binding resolution to stop buying oil from countries that harbor terrorists?
