😲 BREAKING WIN! 🏛️ The @sciencemuseum has finally dropped Norwegian oil and gas firm @Equinor as a sponsor after it failed to align with the Paris 1.5°C target! 🙌 Now, will the museum cut ties to polluter BP and coal and arms conglomerate Adani?! 👀 https://t.co/XFWId35XJq

Some important points made by @GarethRubin in the @guardian - but disagree with his take on Fossil Free Books. Applying ethical standards to corporate sponsors is just good practice, and the sector should be responsive to concerns of stakeholders… 1/2 https://t.co/vp7bvPXmcX

Great edition of #RareEarth on @BBCRadio4 w/@tomheapmedia + @helenczerski… 🌍 But maybe gap in discussion on issue of high carbon sponsorship (oil, airlines, fossil banks) in culture & sport, both driving demand *and* influence of fossil fuel industry… https://t.co/H1c0qG6dqy

“writers are not content for their talents and their hard work to be used to generate positive publicity for companies who are engaged in deeply harmful activities” Our co-director in the Guardian 👇 https://t.co/08AREMqSKQ

Nothing says *not* leading the energy transition than your Vice President for Offshore Wind “electing” to leave his job! 🙄 Come on, @sciencemuseum - it’s time to smell the ☕️ @bp_plc is a planet-wrecking, profit-making, climate-action-delaying polluter! https://t.co/ZOv2xN92ez

The brilliant @ChrisGPackham has now launched a petition demanding a debate on a ban on fossil fuel advertising and sponsorship!! 🙌 📣 ✊ ✍️ Add your name NOW! 👇

These days, BP is saying the quiet part, loud. And the @britishmuseum is still defending taking its dirt money. #DropBP

The @sciencemuseum’s sponsor #Adani is displacing Indigenous peoples to keep mining new coal, burning coal in new power stations, facing charges of alleged bribery and fraud, and making drones fuelling the genocide in Palestine. Are you “delighted” to work alongside #Adani?! 😡

The museum has merely said: “We are aware of a case in the U.S. relating to Adani Green Energy and will be monitoring developments in line with our due diligence processes.” 6/x

“...Will it continue to defend a company whose chair and other senior executives have now been indicted by US prosecutors? Or will it finally admit the mistake it has made and drop this indefensible, polluting sponsor?” 5/x

“...The Science Museum’s own ethics policy prohibits donations where there are ‘concerns of fraud’ or money comes from donors who are ‘believed to have acted illegally’..." 4/x

Our Co-director has said in response: “Since 2020, the @sciencemuseum has backed Adani and dismissed all evidence of its human rights violations, complicity in genocide, environmental damage and financial crime..." 3/x

The court alleges that: '...the defendants paid $265m in bribes to Indian Government officials to obtain solar energy supply contracts “through corruption and fraud at the expense of US investors”.' 2/x

📣 NEW 🏛️ | The Museums Journal reports on the 54-page indictment facing @sciencemuseum sponsor #Adani, which has led to arrest warrants being issued for Chairman Gautam Adani, his nephew Sagar Adani, and 6 others! 💰🤝😲 #DropAdani #ethics #museums 1/x https://t.co/ffrDCc38PX

Today, the @oldvictheatre has announced Rupert Goold as it’s new Artistic Director. 🎭📣 But it hasn’t yet announced the future of its relationship with @RBC...

Surely the London @sciencemuseum has to finally end its grotesque #Adani sponsorship deal. @gautam_adani can't even visit his own greenwashing exhibition without risking arrest! #StopAdani @Cult_Unstained @londonmining @XRebellionUK

As a new #Adani-sponsored gallery opened at the @sciencemuseum this year, AGE Chief Sagar Adani - who now faces bribery charges in the US - said: "Where do we get the capital from? What are the challenges?" Apparently, through (alleged) bribery and faud. https://t.co/rgP9KYAsOq
