Dear
friends, |
Enough
is enough! For decades, big oil and gas
CEOs have misled the public about the deadly impact
of burning fossil fuels and cooking our
planet. Now we are seeing murderous floods, deadly
droughts and rainforests on fire. Now these CEOs
are meeting once again at a key business summit in the Swiss
mountains, pretending they care for the planet - while digging
new oil and gas fields and make billions in
profits. We will travel to Switzerland in the
coming days bringing a "cease and desist"
letter to oil and gas CEOs,
demanding they stop any new oil and gas fields. Join us
-- let's have millions of us speaking
up and telling them that we see through their
lies. Add your name now!

To
fossil fuel CEOs:
This Cease and Desist Order
is to demand that you immediately stop opening any new
oil, gas, or coal extraction sites, and stop blocking
the clean energy transition we all so urgently
need. We know that Big
Oil: KNEW for decades that
fossil fuels cause catastrophic climate
change. MISLED the public and investors
about basic climate science and its
risks. DECEIVED politicians with
disinformation sowing doubt and causing
delay. You must end these activities as
they are in direct violation of our human right to a clean,
healthy, and sustainable environment as well as the rights of
Indigenous people. If you fail to act
immediately, be advised that citizens around the
world will consider taking any and all legal action to hold
you accountable. And we will keep protesting in the
streets in huge numbers. |

It
feels extremely difficult to keep hope alive in the face of
climate devastation across the world -- from millions on the
verge of starvation in East Africa, to the rampant destruction
of the Amazon rainforest. But our hope lies in people -- in
the millions of us who are determined to come together and
demand corporate and political leaders take
action.
It’s time to put these CEOs on notice --
showing them that 2023 will be a watershed moment for
accountability. Let's do this, together. |
Sincerely,
Vanessa from Uganda, Greta from Sweden, Helena from
Ecuador, Luisa from Germany
