Petition Statement

‘Despite attempts to ‘greenwash’ its reputation via blanket advertising and cultural sponsorship, Shell is still
heavily implicated in producing ever-greater quantities
of the oil and gas that are destabilising our climate to
such an alarming degree.

Climate change is set to wipe out millions of plant
and animal species, and to devastate the poorest
regions of the planet.

Shell’s activities also result in oil spills which are major causes of death and destruction for many varieties of marine life.

Lastly, Shell is currently constructing a massive development
at Sakhalin Island in Russia which is threatening the survival
of the Western Pacific grey whale.

For all these reasons, Shell should not be sponsoring the Wildlife Photographer of the Year exhibition. We call
on the Natural History Museum to end its sponsorship
deal with Shell.’
