Energy Transfer – We will not be silenced
Now is your chance to push back against big polluters like Energy Transfer.
Oil companies are suing Greenpeace organisations around the world – because we hold them to account for their impact on people and our planet. But what they don’t realise is we’re a powerful movement, who will not be silenced.
When our court date comes, we will be counting on your support in telling Big Oil: We Will Not Be Silenced!
Add your name
We will not be silenced! Add your name now and tell Energy Transfer we will not be silenced.
We, the undersigned individuals and organisations, formally express our solidarity with Greenpeace against Energy Transfer’s meritless $300 million lawsuit.
Peaceful protest and free speech are fundamental human rights that underpin social progress. The Energy Transfer $300 million lawsuit against Greenpeace is an abuse of the legal system and a blatant attempt to silence legitimate work to protect people and our planet.
This lawsuit makes allegations that affect people far beyond Greenpeace. It attempts to rewrite the history of the Indigenous-led opposition movement at Standing Rock – by absurdly alleging that Greenpeace orchestrated the entire resistance. It seeks to hold the Greenpeace organisations in the US and Greenpeace International accountable for actions taken by unaffiliated and unknown individuals. This could have a chilling effect on anyone engaged in peaceful protest and assembly. It also attempts to sue over justified and protected speech, claiming it is “defamation.” This is corporate overreach that is part of a disturbing trend of attacks on advocacy and speech around the world.
We will not allow lawsuits like this one to stop us from advocating for a just, green and peaceful future. On the contrary, we will ensure they have the opposite effect, increasing the support for organisations like Greenpeace and strengthening the broader movement for justice.

This letter has been signed by more than 290 organisations and a growing list of public figures. If enough of us speak out, we can stop Energy Transfer’s abusive lawsuit, protect Greenpeace, and defend free speech. Add your name now!
