Hi John,

In just 7 days 60,000 people have signed our huge open letter to show they're outraged that Shell is suing Greenpeace for millions of dollars.

This just shows the strength of our people-powered movement - but if we really want to show the court and Shell that public opinion is on our side we need to get at least 100,000 people to sign. So please can you add your name now?

Every signature helps show public support for our fight.

Shell is suing us because 6 brave Greenpeace activists peacefully protested on one of their oil platforms last year. [1] The platform was heading to the North Sea where it was going to unlock new wells - so our activists peacefully occupied it to demand that Shell stops drilling for new fossil fuels and starts paying for the damage the climate crisis is causing across the world. [2]

Shell’s multimillion dollar lawsuit is one of the biggest threats Greenpeace has faced in our 53 year history. This is a David vs. Goliath fight, but we’re not giving up and we’re not backing down.

We have to fight this case with all we’ve got and we need you to stand with us every step of the way. Shell may have billions of dollars, but we have millions of people like you on our side.

So we’ve just launched an open letter to Shell which we plan to draw attention to when we have our day in court. If enough people sign this letter, it will show the court and Shell just how outraged the public are by this lawsuit. Every signature shows that the public is firmly on our side - so please add your name now!

Yes, I’ll sign: [link removed]

We have been forced to take Shell on because our Government is repeatedly taking the side of Big Oil instead of ordinary people - who want cheaper bills and a safer climate.

But believe me when I say that we can win this fight against Shell. Over the years we’ve come together in our millions to build powerful campaigns that have forced Shell to back down [3,4]. This is what people-power looks like - so let’s get out there and win again.

Thanks for everything you do,
