Counting on …. Day 1.173

15th September 2023

Yesterday I joined a multi faith group to hand over a letter to Lloyd’s of London asking them to cease insuring new oil projects. Whilst companies such as Lloyd’s finance/ financially enable oil projects, the exploration and production of oil will continue- and indeed will be seen as socially acceptable by the wider public. All parts of the fossil fuel industry need to be challenged and changed, if we as global community, are going to reduce carbon emissions to safeguard the environment.
