Shell no!

The US government just gave oil giant Shell the go-ahead to drill in the pristine Arctic, putting our climate and the ocean’s majestic wildlife under grave risk.

Before Shell can get to the Arctic, their monster ship needs to gear up in Seattle. One man has the power to turn Shell away - Seattle's green mayor Ed Murray. He's already told Shell that they don't have permission to service their rigsin Seattle, but they've essentially said that they're coming whether the City likes it or not.

Now it's up to Ed to decide whether to lay down or go all-in for the Arctic. We know he's with us, but it takes real guts to stand up to one of the most powerful companies in history. Let's show the Mayor that the whole world stands with him and the people of Seattle in doing whatever it takes to say "Shell No!" to Arctic drilling.

Sign the petition to support the protest against Shell.
