The fact that this tiny spill is the worst is just a sign of the SUCCESS the oil industry has had
Has Shell patented that mealy mouthed management excuse, or is it available for all? As in, this is the first time we've dinged an aircraft in X years so it's a sign of our SUCCESS.

Certainly no where near the 5,300 ton spill Shell had on the Río de la Plata, Buenos Aires. Notable that the Supreme Court of Justice ordered Shell to carry out a 35-million dollar coastline cleanup, not least because it impacted a valuable wildlife area that is considered a biosphere reserve by UNESCO. Last heard was Shell was still avoiding its responsibility and the effects of the oil spill continue causing damages in the coastal ecosystem and in the local community. And you had the hide to take a stick to BP.
