Ethical Consumer, billed as the United Kingdom’s leading alternative consumer organization, has launched an oil sands boycott campaign.
If you go to their site, you’ll have the opportunity to send letters to the top 10 companies/brands benefiting from the tar sands.
“Ethical Consumer believes that staking the future of our planet on technology [carbon capture — industry’ answer to that is of questionable utility is a risk we cannot afford to take. We are therefore launching a campaign to stop the tar sands developments, and are calling on consumers in the UK to boycott brands and companies that profit from them.”
