#PeoplePower beats Shell
On 1 September we celebrated the Makhanda High Court’s decision to revoke Shell’s exploration rights to do seismic blasting off the Wild Coast in South Africa! This was a massive victory for local communities fighting toxic fossil fuel companies to protect their livelihoods and our environment.This victory against Shell proves that people’s lives and precious marine ecosystems are valuable and worthy of protection from climate criminals.
We won, but still have R3 million in legal fees
We are now crowdfunding for our legal costs that we incurred in our actions to stop Shell from destroying the wild coast. Please donate today, every amount, no matter how small, will help!
