<P><STRONG>“Shell Must Fall”:</STRONG> People held physically distanced
actions outside Shell’s headquarters in the Hague on Tuesday, during the
oil giant’s virtual Annual General Meeting inside. The protest was limited
to thirty people due to coronavirus, and many activists wore protective
masks. Other actions were held at the same time across the Netherlands and
Europe, including in Groningen, Prague, and Berlin. “Shell has earned
billions from oil exploitation, now these dirty investments must come to
an end,” Greenpeace biologist Helena Spiritus told Reuters. <A

<P><STRONG>Winning!</STRONG> A major fracked gas pipeline in New York City
has been stopped for good thanks to a 3-year campaign supported by the
Stop Williams Pipeline coalition and tens of thousands of New Yorkers.
Williams pipeline would’ve cost $1 billion USD and pumped in 400 million
cubic feet of gas every day – its denial is sending a signal across the
U.S. that we don’t need more fossil fuel infrastructure. <A

oppose the country's new Mining Law, which would make it easier for
foreign companies to invest in coal extraction. Using the messaging

lack of support for people in need during the pandemic. <A

<P><STRONG>In good faith:</STRONG> On Monday, 42 faith institutions put
the call for a Just Recovery into practice, with a joint commitment to
divest from fossil fuels because of their damage to people and the
climate. Multiple faiths and 14 countries are represented in the
announcement, including Argentina, Bangladesh, the UK, Kenya, and Myanmar.
It’s a meaningful moment for Catholics in particular, who mark the fifth
anniversary of Pope Francis’ <A

<P><STRONG>Watchdog:</STRONG> Australia’s Prime Minister has handpicked a
number of gas executives for the Covid Commission, which is tasked with
leading the country’s economic recovery. But a new group, Fossil Fuel
Watch, is on the scene to expose the dirty dealings. They’re challenging
the fossil fuel industry’s wishlist of tax cuts and weakened environmental
regulations, to keep up chances for a Just Recovery. <A
