• December 12, 1999: sinking of the oil tanker Erika off the French coast. 12 tonnes of heavy oil spilled.
What is the logic of your reasoning?
Would it be that if there were only environmentalists, no one would need oil? And so if no oil needed, no oil tankers needed, no oil tanker shipwrecks.
But then how would they live these environmentalists? What would they eat, how would they dress, how would they warm themselves?
The Erika was carrying oil ... for environmentalists too. The sponsors of the Erika are all those who use oil, directly or indirectly, that is to say everyone, including environmentalists.
