Your Signature is Needed: Government handing your hard-earned tax dollars to 😈 Big 🦖 Oil Sign Now to stop Big Oil from using your tax dollars to pollute the planet.
Government funding for fossil fuels adds up to well over
$5,000,000,000,000 annually -- yes, that is $5 TRILLION -- worldwide. And that money is used to
back Big Oil projects that worsen pollution.
Take action now. The oil, gas, and coal industries poison communities, harm wildlife, and drive climate chaos using your tax dollars.
That is why I need you to help cut off the money driving fossil fuel pollution.
Sign Now to cut off the funding for Big Oil, Gas, and Coal!
The U.S. government has been
financing fossil fuels for over a hundred years. It props up pollution, climate-harming emissions, and the
destruction of
habitats for threatened species.
The U.S. provides funds to countries to roll out the red carpet to the fossil fuel industry -- encouraging them to change their policies to benefit Big Oil.
From coal in Mongolia to liquified natural gas development in Mozambique -- these projects drive people out of their homes and spur violence and human rights abuses. And that’s on top of the environmental destruction.
Demand Big Oil’s funding gets stopped immediately.

Oil, 🦕 gas, and 🐍 coal companies
disproportionately pollute low income countries and Black and Brown communities. People living near polluting projects experience
headaches, nausea, and higher instances of cancer.
Our leaders cannot claim to be serious about environmental justice and climate change if they continue to hand money to Big Polluters.
Our grandchildren deserve to grow up in a livable climate, with clean air and water. But if nothing is done to rein in Big Oil, they could be burdened with
more toxic pollution and climate chaos. I need your help to cut off the money for fossil fuels worldwide.
Demand the United States stop its support for fossil fuel projects.
