Oil and gas
Join us in sending a strong message that offshore oil and gas drilling is not welcome here in Aotearoa New Zealand
Make oil history
Powerful, corrupting and polluting, the oil and gas industry has no place in our collective future. Burning oil and gas drives climate change, fuels conflict and makes us sick. The search for it endangers communities, our precious oceans and marine life.
Fossil fuel companies are responsible for a large majority of climate damaging emissions since the late eighties. The criminal thing is they have known this for just as long, and yet continue their destructive practices unwavered. Together we must transition away from oil and gas, and create renewable, citizen powered energy systems that are not only better for the planet, but are fairer for people too.
Things you can do
We want you to take action because together, we’re strong.
