🚨The F-List has dropped! 🚨
A new report by @CleanCreativeSA has named 42 advertising and PR agencies who are actively shielding the #fossilfuel industry through #greenwashing tactics. These agencies protect polluters by shaping public perception.

🚬 Who’s still in the Mad Men era of working for fossil fuels? Fossil fuel advertising hasn't changed much since the '60s and ‘70s — they’re still selling us fantasies. 🔗 Read our full F-List report for a full list of the biggest offenders: cleancreatives.org/f-list

🚨 VICTORY for @FossilFreeSA!
SA’s ad regulator rules @TotalEnergies' “sustainable development” claim about its SANParks partnership is misleading.
A crucial precedent in SA, showing companies can't hide harmful practices with false claims!

I call on advertising & PR companies to stop acting as enablers to planetary destruction by working for the fossil fuel industry.
Stop taking on new fossil fuel clients & set out plans to drop your existing ones.
They are poisoning our planet & they are toxic for your brand.

Get in, loser! We're banning fossil fuel ads.
