we need change with oil companies with the help of follow this

Why buy shares in oil companies?

As shareholders, we get to determine what oil companies do by tabling resolutions at their Annual General Meetings for all shareholders to vote on.

The Follow This resolutions give investors a choice that no oil company would ever give them without us: to limit global warming to 1.5C or to carry on with business-as-usual.

How does it work?

Buying a share not only gives you a vote, it also encourages big institutional investors (banks, pensions, insurers, asset managers etc) with millions of votes to follow our lead. 

The more members we represent, the easier it becomes to show large investors that people all over the world want the funding of fossil fuels to stop now.

Using the system against itself

We’re using the system to change the system. The tools we need to transform Big Oil already exist, we just need more and more people to use them.

Add your vote and your weight to a growing movement of retail investors and together we can change the world of oil and finance for good.
