Eleven years ago, frustrated by the racist and dismissive responses from Chevron executives at its Annual General Meeting, affected communities decided to take a different approach. Instead of attending the meeting hoping to be heard by Chevron's board and management, they declared their solidarity as “Anti-Chevron” in the week leading up to the meeting.

On the first Anti-Chevron Day in 2014, actions took place in 20 nations across five continents. It remains the only annual global day of action targeting a single oil company. Chevron deserves this distinction even more than other fossil fuel polluters. It is not only the worst greenhouse gas emitter among investor-owned oil companies, but it also relentlessly and unethically attacks its victims when they stand up to the company.

As the movement for a ceasefire in Palestine grows, Chevron is the target of a global boycott campaign for its significant role in fueling the ongoing occupation through its ownership and partial operation of gas fields off the coast of Gaza.

On any list of worst corporate actors concerning human rights, the environment, accountability, transparency, and governance, Chevron consistently ranks at or near the top.
