John -
One thing to know about climate-wrecking pipelines is that they can’t operate without insurance.
That’s why over the last three years, our movement has successfully pressured 28 insurance brokers to drop the East African Crude Oil Pipeline (EACOP).
But one of them, AIG – American International Group – has yet to publicly reject the pipeline.
Our partner, Insure our Future, will be protesting in New York asking insurers to drop coverage for all fossil fuel projects TODAY. Can you amplify their effort and sign the online petition in solidarity?
Through online actions, protests, and petitions like this one, dozens of major banks and insurers have publicly rejected the project so far.1
Right now, the pipeline is facing major delays and needs insurance from companies like AIG in order to move forward. That’s why our public pressure right now is so important.
If built, the East African Crude Oil Pipeline (EACOP) would displace thousands of people living in Uganda and Tanzania while causing irreversible damage to the environment. It would be the world’s biggest heated oil pipeline, stretching nearly 900 miles.
That’s why local activists in Uganda and Tanzania have been fighting to halt the project for years.
We can amplify the communities’ efforts by demanding that insurance companies like AIG stop underwriting destruction and instead insure a safe climate future now.
Public pressure works, John. Right now we need your help to demand AIG drop EACOP. Can you take action today by signing the petition?
In solidarity,
- Team 350
