You won’t believe who is getting a “distinguished citizen” award!

John Watson is NOT a
“Distinguished Global Citizen”
There are many ways Chevron CEO John Watson has “distinguished” himself to the global community, but none of them deserves praise. Environmental destruction, loss of life, public health crisis, abuse of power, undermining democracy, attacking concerned shareholders and trampling First Amendment rights have been “The Chevron Way” under his watch. Yet, the San Francisco Commonwealth Club has seemingly ignored John Watson’s record and on April 2nd plans to present him with a “distinguished global citizen” award.TAKE ACTION NOW

Send a message directly to the Commonwealth Club
saying that such behavior should be condemned, not rewarded.

Due to Chevron’s egregious actions last year, people in twenty nations on five continents protested against the corporation. Only a few weeks ago, Chevron won the Public Eye Lifetime Achievement Award for corporate abuse. Additionally, Watson himself has a formal complaint filed against him at the International Criminal Court for crimes against humanity. His company, found liable for $9.5 billion for the worst oil-related disaster in history in Ecuador, continues to refuse to pay. Thumbing his nose at the courts, Watson’s strategy has been to attack the very people Chevron poisoned as criminals.

Such behavior is simply appalling. That’s why over 35 environmental and human rights organizations have denounced this award and are calling on the Commonwealth Club to rescind it. John Watson and Chevron must be called out for what they are: corporate criminals who abuse their massive wealth to harm people and planet with virtual impunity.

Please join us and let them hear your voice. Corporate criminals must be held accountable, not rewarded.

For justice,
