Shutting down the financial system underpinning fossil-fuelled armageddon
We are waging a campaign of sabotage against the tools, property and machinery of the fossil fuel economy driving the climate emergency. We will escalate until our demands are met for an end to all supportfor fossil fuels causing widespread death and destruction.

Our Origins
The vested interests of the social elite who own, fund and operate fossil fuels are hedged against change. We refuse to permit their continual destruction. We act in collective self-defence.
For decades, those in power have known the lethal risks of burning fossil fuels. In all that time people have campaigned politely against the government and fossil fuel corporations.
According to climate projections, we are heading towards an unstable world in which communities globally will be irrevocably harmed; droughts, floods, water contamination, disease and unimaginable human suffering. The climate crisis is escalating so we must too.
We need an urgent and drastic shift in our means of production. Management of our lands, forests, urban areas and legal and regulatory frameworks all need to be transformed radically to shift the economy onto a sustainable path that averts continued temperature rises.
How we Shut the System
Direct action and sabotage will succeed with focus and precision. We target the financial sector because it underlies society’s greatest challenges. We must redirect finance away from polluters and human rights abusers.
Without funding or insurance, fossil fuel companies cannot operate or expand. Whereas banks and insurance companies have many clients other than fossil fuels, so can feasibly cut off support. Indeed, it is their mandate to sustain economic stability, which is incompatible with climate collapse.
So far, financial establishments have responded to campaigners’ demands with reluctant policy shifts. There remains a serious discrepancy between current financial conduct and the necessary action to prevent the most catastrophic levels of global heating.
Hope in Action
Now we are escalating to demonstrate that we – the public – are ready to tear down institutional and corporate support for climate breakdown.
We act together, collectively. Increasingly oppressive laws force us underground. This new phase requires heightened bravery and resilience. It requires us to care for one another’s well-being and watch each others backs like never before.
A new type of movement is needed. Join us. Reach out to trusted contacts. They may know someone.
