Time to Make Polluters Pay: Ending Big Oil Profiteering

As public anger grows over rising bills, fossil fuel profiteering and worsening climate disasters, we're bringing together journalists, campaigners and voices from the climate frontline to explore how public narratives are shifting, what stories resonate most strongly, and how legal and political breakthroughs can help build broader public support for accountability.

Momentum is building around the world. European finance ministers are looking to introduce new windfall taxes, a major tax loophole was just closed in the UK, and climate litigation from the USA to the Philippines is taking us closer to accountability for climate damage. The Make Polluters Pay agenda is moving rapidly into the mainstream, and London Climate Action Week is a key moment to bring the movement together.

Chaired by journalist Megan Rowling - Climate Home News, the panel will include Steve Wright - General Secretary of the Fire Brigades Union, Laurel Kivuyo - Climate Hub Tanzania, Savio Carvalho - 350.org, with opening remarks from Louise Hutchins - Make Polluters Pay Coalition. More speakers to be announced.

The event is organised for the Make Polluters Pay Coalition by Stamp Out Poverty and 350.org. With thanks to partners Oxfam and Global Witness.

There are a limited number of places available, so please book your place now and spread the word – we'd love to see you there.
