Bottom line:
It is tempting to put all of the blame on oil companies. Of course, they have played key roles in the deterioration of the environment in many countries and, undoubtedly, they should pay their share to reverse the immense harm their activities have inflicted on the environment. Governments should also take firm action and ensure the resources of their nations are properly put to use, without abuse by anyone. The most important issue, however, pertains to the creation of better international production and consumption standards strictly enforced by global entities. Without a concerted global intervention — including hefty fines — millions will continue to sacrifice their livelihoods to satisfy our compulsive dependence on oil, as the environmental effects continue to worsen and affect us globally.
