Crucial report on #justtransition & the phase out of oil & gas from the UK economy published today by @FoEScot @PlatformLondon @PriceofOil

The anti-science agenda and climate denial of fossil fuel companies led to @SciUnstained to protest their sponsorship role @EdSciFest

This pressure and fantastic campaigning meant they were successfully dropped. ✊

We're still on #NorthBridge disrupting central Edinburgh at rush hour for #InternationalRebellion #XRScotland #conscientiousprotectors

As more institutions drop fossil fuel sponsorship it seems like big oil is losing its social license!

@chiversdanny @newint you missed out our recent campaign win in getting Edinburgh Science Festival to drop fossil fuel sponsors! https://t.co/P8o2AGReyZ

[Science Unstained @SciUnstained]

@ReclaimOurBard @ScotlandXr The most recent one from the no war no warming performance in the British Museum - so powerful!

[Science Unstained @SciUnstained]

For anyone who came to our talk at the @ScotlandXr Festival of Climate Reality today - the video we showed was from the amazing @ReclaimOurBard

You can find all the amazing videos of their anti-fossil fuel sponsorship performances at https://t.co/jziKHwWevl

[Science Unstained @SciUnstained]

Some of our members spoke at this earlier today about why fossil fuel companies are not part of the solution and should not get legitimacy from sponsoring public art and science!

Head down to hear more about what people are doing to tackle the climate crisis!

[Extinction Rebellion Scotland @ScotlandXr]

Awesome programme for our #ExtinctionRebellion Scotland Festival of Climate Reality. 15 April, 10am-5pm, 5 Roxburgh Place, Edinburgh EH8 9SU

Fantastic day in Glasgow plotting how we're going to win divestment from fossil fuels in 2019 🤗💓 this movement is so powerful! #DivestScot https://t.co/svxvLlcwKL

Our Divest Scotland Activist Gathering is in full swing in Glasgow!

With @FF_Glasgow @MP_Divest @NoBPFundingScot @ReclaimOurBard @SciUnstained and @patrickharvie!

[Shell Out! @ShellOutOfSci]

Check out @jessworth going head to head with Claire Fox at 10:30 mins. A great argument for why oil company sponsorship in the arts is unacceptable.

[Friends of the Earth Scotland 🌎 @FoEScot]

This is amazing 👏

If you'd like to be involved in the next big campaign win, come along to our Activist Gathering this Saturday 👉 https://t.co/8uvuCrhvB8

'By being associated with science outreach events, fossil fuel companies aim to clean up their image and present themselves as responsible organisations aligned with scientific consensus on climate change.'

Coverage of @EdSciFest dropping fossil fuel sponsors in Energy Voice: oil and gas news for the energy sector

Glad the message is getting through to the industry! https://t.co/eixvaHnB1I

[Science Unstained @SciUnstained]

Solidarity to Shell Out Public Science who are calling out Science and Industry museum in Manchester for their Shell sponsorship.

If @EdSciFest can acknowledge these are inappropriate sponsors for their role in causing the climate crisis why can’t @sim_manchester??

[Shell Out! @ShellOutOfSci]

Greeting the guests at Shell’s #makethefuture event at the @sim_manchester.Nice that 5% is now going to clean tech.Shame about the other 95%

That feeling when institutions realise the #climatecrisis is real, and act accordingly! Congrats @EdSciFest on going #FossilFree & campaigners @FoeScot @SciUnstained @Cult_Unstained @artnotoil @FFcultureNL who continue to push for #FossilFreeCulture
