Nothing wrong with the clip per se IMHO other than just offering the obvious. And, of course, using loaded words like “Plundered” and showing clips of overburden being blown off which looks identical to the excavation efforts to build thousands of miles of roads across the US. Did we “plunder” the Rocky Mountains by building the interstate highway system across it? Did we plunder the NYC landscape to build Manhattan? Did we plunder the environment at the place you are now sitting and reading this post?
I know they use loaded words for marketing purposes. Otherwise how could Hugo sell enough books to pay for the paper stock made from those Plundered forests? LOL.

I couldn’t get it to load – just keeps spinning – will try later.

The ‘plundering’ is not the thing that will kill us, but the end product will. Cutting a road through granite is not the same as liberating a billion tons of polluting coal. But, those invested in the hydrocarbon business will not see they are poisoning their own families and killing their future.

Oil apologists…………..
The “plundering” gained an awful lot of pace with the aid of plundered oil. Without the oil there would be a quarter of the population and much less devastation. Oil is the root of the evil whether you like it or not.
