Protect people, not corporate bullies

Why is this important?

Greenpeace just went to court in the Netherlands. Their crime? Trying to stop a massive gas pipeline from destroying nature. [1]

And now, they’re being sued for millions by the very fossil fuel giant they fought. This is not an isolated case. [2] 

Thankfully the EU already has a law that protects us. [3] Lawsuits where corporations armed with deep pockets and ruthless corporate lawyers take everyday people to court for stopping bad stuff from happening. 

But until our leaders implement the law people are defenceless against Big Bullies. And our governments are dragging their feet. [4] Some don’t want to implement the law. Others are happy to do it sloppily and avoid confronting the corporations that fund them. 

Because this is about all our freedoms and right to speak up: to speak truth to those in power.

Sign now to avoid governments stall this protection. If enough of us speak up today, they can’t quietly delay or dilute this law. 

Tell them: Shield civil society from corporate bullies!
