The UK could finally stop new North Sea drilling. But Big Oil is fighting back.
| I'm on edge - after fighting for years and winning a major court victory, the UK could finally stop new North Sea drilling. But Big Oil is fighting back and trying to hijack the public consultation. With Avaaz's help, we can double our numbers and drown out the oil lobby - will you join me? | | | Hi Avaaz, | Last year, I did something terrifying.
I confronted a Big Oil CEO and called out his greed face to face. It went viral -- and suddenly, hundreds of thousands of people started paying attention.
Ever since, I've fought to stop new oil and gas drilling in the North Sea. And now, it all comes down to this moment.
We just won a major court victory, forcing the UK government to listen. But Big Oil is flooding the public consultation with demands to keep drilling.
With Avaaz's help, we can double our numbers and deliver 1 million voices straight to Prime Minister Keir Starmer. Will you join me? | | | Here's why we need you and our global community of Avaazers. Oil companies from all corners of the world who care more about profit than the planet are lobbying the UK Government so they can continue to drill in the North Sea. And now their biggest cheerleader, Trump, has even weighed in -- in total denial of the climate crisis.
During his campaign, Keir Starmer pledged to stop new oil and gas exploration in the North Sea. Now, as Prime Minister his credibility is on the line - let's show him that if he caves to Big Oil, it will tarnish his reputation and the UK's standing as climate leader.
As a coalition, we've already hit 500,000 signatures, and with Avaaz's help, we can double our numbers and deliver them directly to Keir Starmer in a way he can't ignore. Will you join us and ensure the future of the North Sea is green? | | This campaign is living proof that we are powerful. And if enough of us speak out, we can force the UK Government to stay true to their climate commitments on a global stage. It's time to make the UK government stick to their word and be the climate leader we desperately need.
