Shell is running out of places to hide. Today, LEGO announced it will be ending its 50-year relationship with the oil company after millions of people around the world called on the toymaker to put the partnership on ice. Forward-thinking companies like LEGO know what comes next depends on how we deal with the global threat of climate change. Shell, on the other hand, sees climate change not as a crisis, but as an opportunity. It plans to exploit the melting Arctic to drill for oil in Alaska next year, putting a delicate ecosystem at risk and locking all of us into a fossil fuel future to benefit the global 1 percent. Over the summer, LEGO fans saw the company they love -- which prides itself on creative problem-solving -- working with Shell, a company that embodies imaginative failure. These fans noticed what was happening, stood up, and put a stop to it. Thats a victory for the future. huffingtonpost/travis-nichols/lego-quits-shell_b_5958500.html
