The peaceful protest is a bold challenge to fossil fuel companies to show accountability for their role in the climate crisis, heed the call of climate-impacted communities for justice, and start a rapid and just transition to phase out fossil fuels.The blockade consisted of eight activists, while climbers on top of one of the facility’s silos unfurled a banner with the words “Shell, stop burning our future.” The non-violent direct action escalates a week of lone protests by climate-impacted communities at the Philippine headquarters of Shell in Taguig City to demand climate justice from fossil fuel companies. For four straight days, Shell refused to speak to the communities outside the building.
