Shell's Global Destruction With World's Largest Floating ObjectWe were excited when we heard that Shell is building the world's largest floating object - until we realized that it is going to be a natural gas refinery. Albeit an engineering feat that is supposed to withstand category five cyclones, after a long history of Titanics, Fukushimas, and Deepwater Horizons, having an explosive floating gas refinery in our already compromised oceans makes us more than a little concerned. Called the Prelude FLNG, the massive refinery/city will be moored in Australia's North West coast....<br><br><a href='https://inhabitat.com/worlds-largest-floating-object-would-be-cool-if-it-werent-shells-natural-gas-refinery/'>READ ARTICLE</a>1
