Petition text

The European Commission is working on the Green Deal and the environmental, social and governance (ESG) criteria to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050. That's great.

They have launched a call for tender to select an advisor. But it was a branch of BlackRock that won despite the obvious conflict of interest:
BlackRock is the world's largest investment fund, with a significant portion invested in oil, gas and coal.

The American defender of fossil fuels will prepare Europe's climate future? It's the wolf that will guard the sheep!

Let's all sign up to get this contract cancelled! It is a trap!

We want :
The Commission is waiting for a strong message from the people of Europe to counter the tendering regulation, which they cannot do on their own.

Let’s all sign to keep alive the hope of limiting our greenhouse gas emissions.

Let’s all sign in order to convince the Members of the European Parliament not to let this lobbyist’s manipulation take place!

Why is this important?

Let's all sign so that we don't let these billionaires take full power during this pandemic, during these difficult times that are blocking us in 2020!

It’s important to support the European Green Deal,
It’s important to obtain the carbon neutrality in 2050,
It’s important to limit our emissions of greenhouse gas emissions,
It’s important to show the independence of the European Union,
It’s important to prepare a better planet for our grandchildren,
It’s important to control the power of lobbyists on the European Union,
It’s important to respect the memory of those who died from this pandemic,
It’s important to show that we, people, we have the last word in democracy.

Let's all sign with the NGOs* that are rallying around Agir Pour Le Climat-APLC and WECF. APLC has been leading for three years the movement for a European Treaty for Climate and Biodiversity, see www.pacte-climat.eu .

(*)The first NGOs to be involved are Agir pour le Climat, WECF, OXFAM, Citoyens pour le Climat...

Det er vanskeligt for almindelige mennesker at forandre politikernes opfattelse af verden. Deres omgangskreds er de økonomiske magthavere, der bruger store økonomiske midler med lobbyisme at få indflydelse på de politiske beslutningstagere og dermed afgørende indflydelse på verdens gang, der først og fremmest har tjent en uafbrudt vækst af de riges rigdom, der er så forbryderisk stor som aldrig før i menneskehedens historie. Forleden døde den engelske monark, der indledte sin stilling som overhoved for det mægtige britiske imperium. Dette imperium blev bygget gennem de engelske erobringer af af mange af verdens lande og deres folk. Som et eksempel på den voldsomme udbytning af store dele af verdens befolkninger er Englands erobring af Indien. Da englænderne ankom Indien var landet enormt rigt, faktisk verdens rigeste land. Da inderne tvang englænderne til at give inderne selvstændighed. Da englænderne forlod Indien i 1947 tilhørte inderne de fattigste folk i verden. I de knap 100 år englænder havde Indien, var inderne blevet frarøvet alle deres rigdomme og dermed nu forandret til verdens fattigste. Ser vi på mængden af rigdommene frarøvet inderne i de knap 100 år som engelsk, så svarer det til 17 gange de nuværende rigdomme England besidder. Ved sin dødsdag var det engelsk kongehus suverænt verdens rigeste kongehus og den engelske dronning en af verdens rigste person. Der var da ej heller megen sorg af finde blandt folk i de tidligere engelske kolonier. Tværtimod benyttede de lejligheden til at fortælle, hvad de havde været udsat for som koloni. De gjorde endvidere også opmærksom på, at de nu også betalte for de nuværende riges lande voldsomme påvirkninger af verdens klima. I den gamle engelske koloni Pakistan er en 1/3 af landet oversvømmet. Millioner af mennesker har mistet alt, de ejede. Kæmpe arealer af landbrugsjord med afgrøder er oversvømmet. Menneskeboliger bortskyllet og ødelagt af vandmasserne. Pakistan forventer nu sult i landet. Sådan kunne der fortsættes i alle verdens fattige lande. De har fået frastjålet deres rigdomme. Dette er årsagen til deres fattigdom og de rige lande rigdom. Dette bør præsident Von der Leyen sige højt for både kommission og parlament i EU.

We have to fight for our planet's future

The "Green Deal" should be real and honest and not misused by an investment fund only interested in defending their profits.

Georgia

It’s important to obtain the carbon neutrality in 2050.

It’s important to control the power of lobbyists on the European Union

Alissa

To survive.

The climate will affect our future. Perhaps reconsidering the contract or adding some clauses to prevent any form of ulterior motives might be more advantageous than receiving more money. Another american mistake would not be beneficial to our future.

Mario

Whoever has the money exercises power! No government should work like that.

Lin

We've had enough.

Ako nastavimo ovako,uništićemo prirodu a tako ćemo uništiti i čovečanstvo. Kucnuo je poslaednji čas da se osvestimo i spasemo i sebe i prirodu!

Wim

Because I care about a healthy climate

Herman

The power of these investment funds must be broken, for they have proven time and time and again that they do not care about the well-being of societies and ecosystems. It would be a monumental mistake to allow BlackRock any say in the Green Deal.

Mateusz

Our planet is literally in danger. We can start to panic if things won't change in next few years.

Richard

Because the EU belongs to its citizens not to companies!

Lars

We must move now on these things before the time is up...

Anne-Marie

Stop conflict of interests in the European Commission. Save the tiny bit of credibility this body might have left to side with the electorate and not the businesses

Free from Coal Lobbies and Corporation Into Europe!

Because there is too much green washing and it is time for concrete actions, not lobbying.
