This is the sending off celebration for the fossil fuel industry!
On Friday 8th of March, the Scottish Oil Club, an exclusive body representing the international oil and gas industry, will hold their annual celebratory dinner at the National Museum of Scotland. 890 fossil fuel industry leaders will celebrate the success of their trade and network to further its interests.
A major driver of the climate emergency, the fossil fuel industry should not be celebrated, and definitely not on International Women’s Day. Women across the globe are on the front line of facing climate chaos, while rarely being the drivers of it.
