Walk Away From Fossil Fuels

July 27, 2021 by Leicester & Leicestershire

Last week-end Global Justice Leicester had a stall at the National Justice and Peace Network annual conference in Derbyshire

The theme of the conference was ‘2021: Moment of Truth – Action for Life on Earth’

People visiting our stall were shocked to learn how corporate courts block climate action.

The Netherlands is being sued by two fossil fuel companies, RWE and Uniper, for phasing out coal power.

Don’t let corporate courts block climate action – sign the petitition to the prime minister and the international trade secretary.

In this year when the UK is hosting the COP26 climate talks, the UK government should reject corporate courts:

  • Drop corporate courts in the UK-Canada and UK-Australia trade deals
  • Exit the Energy Charter Treaty
  • Stop joining the Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP)
