The partnership between Waitrose and Shell is hypocritical when you consider that Waitrose is a company that had previously worked with Greenpeace to develop its sustainable fishing policies.
Waitrose illustrates just how dangerous it can be for companies who try to show concern for the environment on the one hand while irresponsibly pursuing profits on the other. Greenpeace originally lauded Waitrose for establishing an Arctic Sanctuary and then was forced to criticize the company after it forged a partnership with the dirty energy giant.
