Stop Exxon's oil bomb
To the head of Guyana’s Environmental Protection Agency Khemraj Parsram, the president of Guyana Irfaan Ali and Exxon CEO Darren Woods:
As concerned global citizens, we urgently call on you to do all you can to cancel all current and planned oil and gas exploration and production in Guyana. Exxon’s investment is a bad deal for the people of Guyana. It is turning the country from a carbon sink to a carbon bomb, threatening precious biodiversity hotspots of the Caribbean. This seriously undermines Guyana’s commitment to going 100% renewable under the Paris Agreement.

But now, one man can seriously hamper this catastrophic project.
Khemraj Parsram, the head of the Guyanese environmental body, will decide whether to grant Exxon a new permit to continue this devastating operation. We only have few weeks to make sure he stands strong against Exxon – and here’s the plan:
When enough of us join, Avaaz will help expose in the local media how bad the project is for Guyana, support brave opposition and work hand in hand with experts until the pressure is impossible for Mr. Parsram to ignore.
For the sake of life on Earth and future generations, we have to stop Exxon’s oil bomb -- sign now and tell everyone.
