On Wednesday, May 25th, 2011 join in spirited protest at the Chevron headquarters in San Ramon, during the annual Chevron shareholders meeting. FACES will stand with our allies with the True Cost of Chevron campaign to show the strength of our communities against Chevron's environmental bullying!
FACES Board of Directors member Mari Rose Taruc will directly address the Chevron Board of Directors and CEO along with representatives from other impacted communities. Mari Rose will share some of the experiences of our allies in Manila on behalf of FACES and AESJ, giving the Chevron shareholders a glimpse of the real impacts of Chevron's operations in the Philippines.
While delegates will demand environmental justice on the inside, we need your help to raise the roof on the outside! Beginning 7 am we will hold chants, peaceful actions, and solidarity building in front of the Chevron head quarters. Please join us for any part or all of the day!
