Climate leadership out of Cardiff. 👏 Every 2 years, the average UK car gets 1cm wider - clogging streets and impacting public and planetary health. SUVs are the worst offenders, but they're also the most advertised. Time to ban SUV ads. ❌ More 👉 https://t.co/A7SdbAgAVR

Policy makers are also influenced by these ads and sponsorship deals. By making it legally impossible for damaging industries to promote their polluting products, we can turn the cultural tide towards sustainability. Join the campaign. 👇 https://t.co/NWy9uOteZW

These ads and sponsorships aren’t background noise - they’re part of the same lobbying ecosystem. Every time a fossil fuel logo sits beside a cultural event, it normalises their presence and associated their brand with our favourite pass times. https://t.co/1qVv4nVcUn

Advertising is one key lever for laundering polluters' reputations. And sports sponsorship is another. While wreaking ecological havoc in Guyana through its oil projects, Exxonmobil has sponsored major cricket team the Guyana Amazon Warriors. 🤨

While Exxon was dismantling EU climate law behind closed doors, it was laundering its reputation with glossy ads and sponsorship deals. Across Europe, the US oil giant plastered public space with ads misrepresenting them as climate leaders. Full story: https://t.co/Rz8MWNgqF5

Within a year, three of Exxon’s four demands made it into the final proposal. The law was gutted and the fossil fuel lobbyists went home smiling. But direct lobbying is only half of the strategy. https://t.co/zT47pP6x0s

ExxonMobil called it ‘irrational’ and a ‘job killer.’ Then it lobbied to gut it before it even took effect. The fossil fuel giant met with EU officials 25+ times, threatening to pull €20B in investments, and even enlisted Trump’s team to pressure Brussels.

The EU’s new law - the Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD) - was meant to make large companies responsible for human rights abuses and pollution across their supply chain. In short - they would be made responsible for their impacts 💡 https://t.co/f2A3ezZcHB

🚨 Inside ExxonMobil’s lobby campaign to take down Europe’s new climate accountability law. In a new investigation by SOMO, Exxonmobil's prolonged climate delay strategy in Europe is revealed. 🧵 https://t.co/0koYcT7CQn

Football can’t solve the climate crisis. But it can help us imagine a future worth fighting for. In Sporting Tales published last year, Freddie Daley documented the climate activism journey of Arsenal legend, Héctor Bellerín. 🧵 Read the full piece. 👇

The Museum Association's code of ethics is significant - but the world of sport is the billboard of choice for polluters aiming to clean up their image. To join the campaign against polluter sponsorship in sport, sign up to the Fossil Free Declaration. 👇 https://t.co/P7I896gOKH

This success is part of a wider movement against sponsorship being used to normalise harmful industries. Across the UK, cities are refusing to allow public space to be used to advertise products that damage public health. https://t.co/fQxUFJkpL3

This move isn't anti-business as is often claimed. It’s about drawing a line between philanthropy and propaganda - between genuine support for the arts and image-laundering by polluters and abusers. https://t.co/P8fDIhxrhm

The Code connects the dots between climate, ethics, and labour rights - calling for decisions that reflect social and ecological responsibility. Culture can’t claim to educate the public on the climate crisis while being funded by its architects. https://t.co/RJdz8FLQ3M

The tide has turned. With pressure now coming from the top, the British Museum & Science Museum Group are isolated for continuing to take money from BP & Adani, companies funding fossil fuels and human rights abuses. https://t.co/FHkICCx1z3

But this didn’t happen overnight. It’s the product of a decade of campaigning by artists, cultural workers, and activists who refused to let polluters clean up their image through culture sponsorship. https://t.co/XP6bvfkieL

For the first time, a cultural sector body has stated it plainly: organisations involved in environmental harm and human rights abuses are not welcome in the UK's galleries and museums. ✅
