Shell and the entire fossil fuel industry are knowingly driving the climate crisis, that’s why I’m taking action today. In my country, the Philippines, entire communities are being destroyed by extreme weather events - and we are not alone in our suffering. [2] Around the world we have seen deadly flooding in Pakistan, extreme heat waves in Turkey and droughts and crop failures across Kenya, Ethiopia and Somalia. [3] [4] [5]
People that have done the least to cause the climate crisis are paying the highest price. Over the last 50 years or so, Shell has produced ten times the carbon pollution of the Philippines. [6] But this crisis knows no borders. Extreme weather is also devastating lives in France, Germany and the US. [7] [8] [9] In the UK and across Europe people are freezing in their homes because of unaffordable energy bills. [10]
We are all suffering whilst Shell and the rest of the fossil fuel industry line their pockets and make billions in profits.
For a safe and fair world, we need climate justice. That means polluters like Shell must pay for the loss and damage they are causing to the world. We need your help to amplify our message to Shell.
