Chevron needs to divest NOW...

 
 

Chevron is fueling the genocide in Gaza by supplying Israel’s war machine with energy and funds. Tell Chevron CEO Mike Wirth to divest from the company’s major gas fields off the coast of occupied Palestinian land.

John,

We are watching Israel set fire to hospitals, homes, shelters, and nurseries in Gaza, killing tens of thousands of Palestinians and burying countless more under the rubble.
 The survivors are being left to die slowly, as Israel continues to cut off access to food, clean water, gas, and medical care to over 2 million people.

Chevron is profiting from this violence. It supplies Israel's war machine with light and power through its operation and co-ownership of Leviathan and Tamar -- two major gas fields off the coast of occupied Palestinian land.

Now we are joining Palestinian civil society to call on Chevron to end its support for Israel’s ongoing genocide and systematic violation of Palestinian human rights. We've successfully targeted Chevron before, let's do it again. 

Tell Chevron: stop supporting the genocide in Gaza and divest from Israel's illegal occupation

Chevron also operates and partially owns the EMG pipeline, which connects Israel and Egypt, passing west of the Gaza shoreline. This pipeline is not under Israeli jurisdiction, and any economic gain in this area without Palestinian agreement is illegal under international law.

After the International Court of Justice issued its ruling that the Israeli occupation is illegal and that genocide in Gaza is plausible, top legal experts around the world have been warning that companies that are aiding and abetting Israel's crimes could be complicit in them. 

We've successfully targeted Chevron before. When the Myanmar military staged a coup in 2021 our community went after Chevron and helped push the company to leave Myanmar. It took several months of relentless pressure from Ekō and partners. We can do it again. 

Sign our petition telling Chevron to stop fueling Israeli apartheid and genocide.

Thanks for all that you do,
Rewan and the team at Ekō
