Related: About this forumExxon Receives Safety Medal From National Safety Council
Days after an ExxonMobil pipeline swamped an Arkansas subdivision, pouring an estimated 84,000 gallons of crude oil into residential streets, the National Safety Council presented Exxon Mobil Corporation with a safety award.
The Green Cross for Safety medal, presented at the council's annual fundraising dinner in Houston on Tuesday, honored ExxonMobil for its leadership and "comprehensive commitment to safety excellence."
"It is evident that ExxonMobil is committed to excellence in safety, security, health and environmental performance," said NSC president Janet Froetscher, who presented the award to ExxonMobil CEO Rex Tillerson. "The Council is honored to recognize ExxonMobil with the Green Cross for Safety medal. This organization is a wonderful example of the role corporations can play in preventing injuries and saving lives."
The council stated ExxonMobil has distinguished itself over a period of years for achievements in workplace safety, community service and environmental stewardship.

I only posted that because I thought it was kind of funny because it's ironic and absurd. The planet will still be livable for several decades. Please hang with us.
