John, we need your support now more than ever.
The East African Crude Oil Pipeline (EACOP) has the power to displace thousands of people living in Uganda and Tanzania while causing irreversible damage to the environment. So we're gathering with activists across the world to stop EACOP today, and we need your help to amplify our call.
Without support from Standard Bank and SMBC, TotalEnergies — the oil company behind EACOP — won't be able to fund the pipeline. As a grassroots movement, it will take all of us to ensure that these banks know about EACOP's devastating impacts not only to our environment but also to their reputations. That's where you come in, John.
It's crucial that we support the on-the-ground mobilizations led by climate activists in 10 cities across the world. You can lend a much needed hand by signing our petition, and we'll deliver your signature directly to the bank offices today.
More than 24 major financial institutions and banks have already pulled out of EACOP due to public pressure.1 And with over 36,000 signatures asking banks to drop EACOP once and for all, we're showing no signs of slowing down our efforts to #StopEACOP.
In solidarity,
Deborah for 350.org
