PARIS 2015: Kick Big Polluters Out of Climate Policy

Today, we are facing the prospect of the destruction of life as we know it and irreversible damage to our planet due to climate change. Scientists are telling us with ever more urgency that we must act quickly to stop extracting fossil fuels and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. But the world’s largest polluters have prevented progress on bold climate action for far too long.

We call on the Parties to the UNFCCC to protect the UN climate talks and climate policymaking around the world from the influence of big polluters. The world is looking to the next round of negotiations – in Paris this December – for decisive action on climate. This is a pivotal moment to create real solutions. And the momentum of a growing global movement can secure a strong outcome from the Paris talks and ensure leaders take bolder action to address the climate crisis.

But the fossil fuel industry and other transnational corporations that have a vested interest in stopping progress continue to delay, weaken, and block climate policy at every level. 

We can't let that happen. Take action today to send a clear message to world leaders: it's time to kick big polluters out of climate policy! 

To the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change:

We call on you to take immediate action to protect COP21 and all future negotiations from the influence of big polluters. Given the fossil fuel industry’s years of interference intended to block progress, push false solutions, and continue the disastrous status quo, the time has come to stop treating big polluters as legitimate “stakeholders” and to remove them from climate policymaking.

Due to the tragic events in Paris, public protests outside the climate talks will be scaled back and cancelled. Unfortunately, the polluters are still allowed inside the talks. We need you to help share the call to KICK THE POLLUTERS OUT! Here's a great post on Paris from Tim DeChristopher. Click here to share the petition on Facebook. Sharing helps us win.

The climate talks in Paris will start at the end of the month! Can you help drive up the total on our petition to kick the polluters out of the room? Unfortunately, polluters are actually SPONSORING the talks, so our work is critical to overcome their voice.
