Dear friends, This is unbelievable. In just hours, TOTAL will announce its quarterly results at a key event with investors and journalists, and likely brag about its achievements as a “Responsible energy major.” But we can ensure the company leaders don't go unchallenged, and instead are called to account for their massive pipeline project in East Africa -- due to displace 12,000 families and tear through critical elephant reserves and precious wildlife hotspots. If we all share this tweet, we can ensure that all journalists attending the event, and everyone following the event in social media, are aware of the disastrous impact of its new pipeline and challenge Total’s narrative. The meeting is starting soon -- share this urgent tweet to top business journalists: Retweet Avaaz's post We have a great opportunity to persuade key journalists covering TOTAL’s financial reporting to finally reveal Total’s truth: That they are a company claiming to lead the energy transition towards a clean future, while building a massive pipeline with a devastating impact on climate, nature and human rights in East Africa.
