is unbelievable. Giant fossil fuel companies are using an obscure international
treaty to sue our countries for billions of dollars for shutting down coal
plants and oil rigs. But insiders say that with a million voices, we can help
fuel an almighty revolt by powerful countries at a critical meeting next week.
Sign now with one click to stop this toxic treaty and tell everyone! Dear
friends, This is outrageous -- just as many countries are finally acting to stop
climate change and protect the planet, fossil fuel giants are suing governments
for billions.It all happens because of a powerful international treaty that
almost no one has heard of: the Energy Charter Treaty.It was designed to
encourage energy companies to invest in developing economies, but now it's being
weaponised to sue countries when they try to shut down toxic coal plants and oil
rigs -- wrecking our transition to 100% clean energy. Companies have already won
over $50 Billion from taxpayer funds -- and more and more countries are still
getting caught in the trap.But finally there’s a plan to scrap it. Italy has
already withdrawn, and now France, Spain and others are calling for the treaty
to go. If we champion their call with a 1-million strong petition, it could fuel
a major revolt at critical negotiations next week. This is our chance to
make sure no one is sued for acting on climate change. Sign now with one click:

terrible treaty is basically the exact opposite
of the Paris Climate Agreement. It punishes
governments for moving off fossil fuels, and
keeps us marching into a deadly future of
drowning cities, wildfires, and a catastrophic
loss of life.<BR><BR>Take Italy: When it banned
oil drilling off its coast, a <STRONG>British
company sued the government for almost $300
million -- nine times more than the company had
even invested.</STRONG> That's precious tax
money that could otherwise have been used for
renewable energy, schools, or
hospitals.<BR><BR>And so <STRONG>no matter where
you are in the world, this treaty affects
you.</STRONG> To beat climate change, we need a
huge global transition to green energy -- but if
some countries are being held back, the entire
global effort is sabotaged.<BR><BR>Insiders from
opposing countries tell us that strong public
support could tip the balance ahead of a
critical meeting in days, and get a critical
mass of countries to quit the treaty. So let's
make it happen -- sign now and Avaaz will
deliver our voices directly to key leaders, and
with an ad in one of Europe’s top media outlets:
