PRESS RELEASES
As CERAWeek – the fossil fuel industry’s largest annual conference of the year – kicks off today, industry insiders will be out in force to continue peddling greenwashing schemes that claim “certified” gas is “cleaner” and less harmful to the climate.
Climate and social movements have forced oil and gas companies to acknowledge that fossil fuels are dirty and dangerous. At the industry’s biggest event of the year – CERAWeek 2024 – Big Oil and their government enablers will try to fool the world into believing they have solutions for a livable planet when, in reality, they’re trying to suck every last ounce of profit out of their dirty business.
As Shell prepares to appeal a court order to reduce emissions by 45%, a new report from Milieudefensie and Oil Change International reveals the company has flagrantly continued to expand oil and gas projects since the 2021 court ruling, defying orders to align its plans with what is required to curb the climate crisis.
Today the board of the US Export-Import Bank (EXIM) approved $500 million to expand oil and gas production in Bahrain, despite Biden’s commitment to end international public finance for fossil fuels made in 2021.Â
New data compiled by DataDesk, commissioned by Oil Change International, sheds light on the devastating role of oil fueling the ongoing genocide against the Palestinian people. By tracing the supply chains of crude oil and refined products to Israel, the research exposes the various countries and companies whose fuel supplies are perpetuating this humanitarian crisis – and thus have an opportunity to help compel a ceasefire by turning off those taps.
