Initiative at https://banfossilfuelads.org/
Fossil
fuel companies, carmakers, airlines and maritime companies use
advertising and sponsorships as a smokescreen to distract attention
from their climate-wrecking business, while their activities continue
to plunge us deeper into the climate and human rights crises. This
has to stop.
Now, we have the power to change the law with
the European Citizens' Initiative.
Act now for a historic ban on fossil fuel ads
and sponsorships!
We call on
the European Commission to propose an EU legislative act:
-
prohibiting
advertisements for fossil fuels, as well as air, road and water-borne
transportation (other than transport services
of general economic interest) powered by fossil
fuels;
-
prohibiting
advertisements from any undertakings active in the market for fossil
fuels, in particular by extracting, refining, supplying,
distributing or selling fossil fuels;
-
prohibiting sponsorships by undertakings defined under point 2
above, or using trademarks or commercial names used for fossil
fuels.
