The view from ExxonMobil world headquarters
What the senior folks at ExxonMobil in Dallas saw this morning...
Aaah, the joys of a corner office. Here on the leafy setting of what ExxonMobilers call the "God Pod" - because all decisions get made here - Greenpeace activists in fuzzy orange tiger suits came to remind the executives that we know what they are up to.
These fuzzy felines are all set for a day at the ExxonMobil HQ - jugs of water, sunscreen, an inflatable tube to go for a cooling swim on one of the ponds on the ground. In the lower shot, they are sashaying up the drive in front of the building.
The tigers may not look serious, but let's make no mistake, the charges against ExxonMobil that the tigers are delivering are deadly serious. The activists are dressing up in fuzzy, hot suits in 80 degree weather because ExxonMobil actively fights against efforts to slow global warming. Find out more here.

Posted by: greenrose at May 27, 2003 12:12 PMThis just in,local SPCA officials rounded up what appeared to be a new, undocumented breed of Tiger today, these animals were observed scavenging for food around an office complex in Irving Texas.
Local SPCA officals told us "These are by far the least advanced creatures we havecome across, I would dare to say they are an entirely new breed, we're thinking they were bred in a local trailer park somewhere in South Dallas, we're looking into the matter now.

We have carried out many forcourt boycotts here in the UK and the suport continues to growing.
ExxonMobile will eveentually have to listen, they cannot continue to put thier short term profits before the long term health of OUR planet.
Well Done from Greenpeace Nottingham England (UK)
