The WWF are waging a campaign against this company's oil exploration project within the Virunga National Park. Although I'm in mining stocks myself and I'm a member of the WWF - which is a massive contradiction I know - situations like this, where pristine so-called 'protected' lands are exploited, do set off my moral compass and leave me feeling a bit ashamed. This after the deal with Ecuador to pay them not to spoil their rainforest fell through, where suitable donors where lacking. Money always comes before the natural world, which is a pity.
