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?
