Don't many oil companies hire environmentalists (assuming that means Environmental Experts) to advise them on operating their facilities and constructing?  A person against environmentalist would not employ these people as they wouldn't be seen to provide value.  Seeing as oil companies do and Alyeska does as well, the basis on attacking Barrett on this is factually wrong.  The taxation criticism came out of left field and seemed like political rambling.

This was a really unfairly written article on Barrett and others associated with the oil industries, character.  Criticism is needed from opposing parties to help find the best solution but taking these kind of shots and using manipulative rhetoric  at opposing parties is counterproductive.
