<P>It’s decision time. Next week, AXA’s CEO,Thomas Buberl, could
decide <STRONG>to stop his multinational company from insuring any
new oil and gas projects</STRONG>.</P>
<P>Withdrawing insurance coverage from these dirty projects is a
powerful lever to keep fossil fuels in the ground. In the past AXA
has done a pretty good job - by becoming <STRONG>the first insurer
to exclude all coal projects</STRONG>.</P>
<P>And in 10 days, on Climate Finance Day, AXA could do exactly the
same thing for oil and gas. <STRONG>Problem is, the initiative is
facing a lot of backlash and opponents are doing their best to water
down the new policy </STRONG>to save their most juicy and
climate-wrecking deals.</P>
<P><STRONG>we need your help to call on Thomas Buberl, AXA’s CEO, to
adopt a new breakthrough policy</STRONG> to end AXA’s support for
new oil and gas once and for all:</P>

Thomas Buberl to take leadership on climate and stop supporting new
oil and gas projects!</A></P>
<P>Thomas Buberl is considered the most active climate leader within
the insurance industry. In 2017, he stopped insuring new coal
projects. AXA’s move was followed by many insurers and <STRONG>coal
has now become almost uninsurable</STRONG>.</P>
<P>Despite this, a new investigation will soon publicly reveal that
<STRONG>AXA continues to insure the exploration of huge oil and gas
reserves, including in fragile ecosystems near the mouth of the
Amazon River</STRONG> which are home to blue whales, manatees and
other threatened species.</P>
<P>Today, AXA has not only the unique opportunity to follow through
on its green promises, but it also has <STRONG>the power to redefine
the rules of the game by making oil and gas projects uninsurable
too</STRONG>.</P>

Thomas Buberl to take the lead on climate by ending all support for
new oil and gas projects!</A></P>
<P>A few days ago, the International Energy Agency concluded the
planet cannot afford any new oil and gas projects <STRONG>if we want
to avoid catastrophic climate breakdown</STRONG>. Thomas Buberl is
now in the hot seat to live up to his commitments: <STRONG>he must
follow the science and not yield to climate wreckers’
greed</STRONG>.</P>
<P>All over the world, SumofUs members and their partners are
ramping up the pressure on the world's biggest insurance companies
to hold them accountable for their complicity in climate chaos.
<STRONG>Today, together, we can bring the most powerful actor to do
the right thing and bring the industry with him:</STRONG></P>
