To Bill McNabb III, and the Vanguard Investment Oversight Committee:

As citizens worldwide who cherish our planet, we believe Chevron should be held accountable for the devastation caused to the lands, rivers, and people of Ecuador. We urge you to support the two shareholder proposals by Zevin Asset Management and Newground Social Investment, and use your influence to get others on board. As Chevron’s biggest shareholder, you have major influence to persuade Chevron's management to reach a fair settlement with the affected communities in Ecuador.

Honour Lourdes: justice for the Amazon's Chernobyl!
When five year old Lourdes came back from swimming in the river, her belly bloated, blood poured from her nose, and she died. The river had been poisoned by billions of gallons of lethal waste dumped by the oil giant Chevron.

They call it the 'Amazon Chernobyl'. And Lourdes’ family is just one of thousands of indigenous people whose lives, lands and rivers were devastated. They’ve been fighting for justice for decades. Now finally one man could deliver it to them!

Bill McNabb is the chairman of Chevron's top stockholder, Vanguard. He’s renowned for challenging corporate abuse. If we can persuade him to join 36 other major investors and vote for Chevron to settle the case at their shareholder meeting in days, he could tip the balance!

Avaaz has been invited to deliver our call directly to McNabb at the shareholder meeting, and as we have Vanguard clients in our community, we know he'll listen! Let’s get a million of us to call on Mr Mcnabb to vote to honour Lourdes!
