Wow, John. This is BIG:
ExxonMobil was booted from the Dow Jones Industrial Average after nearly 100 years – a historic moment marking the fall of Big Oil.
Together, we have shown the world that Exxon knew about the climate crisis and lied. We have eroded their reputation through years of organizing on the ground and in the streets. Now their financial clout is falling, too.
This never would’ve happened without you. Together, we confronted the power of Big Oil with the power of people. We are winning the fight against Big Oil, but we cannot let up on the pressure now.
Your $3.50 contribution today will help us continue building a global grassroots movement strong enough to dismantle the entire fossil fuel industry. So we are asking you directly:
The truth is that Big Oil is falling. A new day is on its way – one where we move to a resilient, regenerative, and just energy economy. Even the finance world is waking up.
Make no mistake about the significance of this news. Not only was Exxon the oldest member of the Dow Jones, but it was the world’s largest oil company, and for many years, the world’s largest company – period.
Together, the people took on ExxonMobil – the largest company in the world – and we are winning.
We know that right now is an incredibly difficult time for our climate, our country, and the world. So we hope that you take a moment to realize how far we’ve come and that when people organize, there is nothing that we cannot do. But we can't stop now:
Thank you, thank you, thank you for staying committed to this fight with us.
