Dear
friends, |

As
we write this, the French oil giant Total is
getting ready to construct the biggest heated
oil pipeline in the world!
The East
African Crude Oil Pipeline in Uganda and
Tanzania will displace 12.000 families, endanger
protected wildlife and push the world
closer to full-blown climate
catastrophe.
Those on the
frontlines opposing this insane project are
mobilizing today to speak up. But with recent
threats and arrests, they are not
safe if they do this alone – they need our
help!
Total’s annual
shareholder meeting is happening right
now. Let’s stand with
Ugandans and make sure their call resonates the
loudest today when investors meet:

Make
no mistake -- this project is
massive. It would cross more than 200
rivers and 12 protected forests, home to an
abundance of beautiful wildlife already clinging
onto survival. Just one leak could be a
catastrophe.But the
pipeline still can be
stopped. More and more banks are
publicly announcing that they will not finance
it, and just days ago the world’s most powerful
energy agency said NO new oil, coal and gas
projects should be developed if we want to keep
our world safe for future
generations. Total’s CEO Patric Pouyanné
wants to convince the world his company is
shifting to renewables. But this can be true
only if he stops EACOP! So let’s
make sure the call to stop this massive pipeline
is the loudest voice, when the
shareholders debate: Retweet

The
fight against climate chaos is part of our
movement’s DNA. We put millions on the streets,
and ran fierce media and advocacy campaigns
until we helped secure the Paris Agreement. But
we’ve also taken on corporate giants like
Monsanto, and won. Now let’s go all out to stop
Total’s insane project before it's too
late. With hope and
determination, Martyna, Patricia,
Mélanie, Fey, Pascal and the whole Avaaz
