Oil pipelines are cutting right through the lush greenery of the Amazon rainforest, causing oil spills that poison rivers, kill wildlife, and force Indigenous communities out of their homes. [1]
Who's fueling this disaster? Santander bank, one of the biggest backers of oil projects in the Amazon. [2] Despite recently making a green pledge to protect the climate, it’s bankrolling the destruction of one of our planet's most vital ecosystems - a blatant contradiction to its commitments.
In just two weeks, Santander's top brass will gather for their annual shareholder meeting. The CEO will want to present the bank in the best possible light. It’s our chance to crash the party and speak truth to power: We’ll deliver this petition and talk directly to the shareholders about Santander’s dirty business in the Amazon.
Will you add your voice and demand Santander put an end to oil projects in the Amazon?
