RAN activists are joining a huge protest outside of Chevron’s annual shareholder meeting this morning to demand the company take responsibility for its pollution in communities around the globe. Representatives from Angola, Ecuador, Nigeria, Indonesia, Canada, Alaska, and Texas, as well as from right here in California and several other places impacted by the company’s business operations, will be outside and inside the meeting to demand justice from Chevron.
The third annual True Cost of Chevron alternative annual report came out yesterday to expose the grim reality of Chevron’s business operations: “Chevron continues its long history of ravaging natural environments, violating human rights, ignoring the longstanding decisions of Indigenous communities, destroying traditional livelihoods, and converting its dollars into unjust political influence in the United States and around the world.”
