Insure Our Future
London & nationally. Your opportunity to tell the insurance companies not to insure new oil and gas projects. Join XR Wimborne in London. Find out more.
What’s insurance got to do with the climate crisis?
It’s the 'Achilles Heel' of the fossil fuel industry. Insurers give companies like Shell, BP and ExxonMobil the ability to drill as the planet burns: No insurance = no fossil fuels.
Just 20 companies insure 70% of the world’s fossil fuel industry and a large number of them are based in the UK.
Climate activism is working
New coal power plants, EACOP, Cambo - all now almost uninsurable. It’s time to target oil and gas insurance.
