Pendant trois jours cette semaine, des milliers de personnes soutenant la campagne Insure Our Survival de XR ont organisé des manifestations et des actions de haut niveau dans la ville de Londres appelant les assureurs à cesser d’assurer tous les nouveaux projets pétroliers, gaziers et charbonniers. Les projets de combustibles fossiles – charbon, gaz et pétrole – ne peuvent fonctionner sans assurance.

28th Oct. 2024. HISCOX Insurance offices, City of London, UK. Extinction Rebellion ‘Insure Our Survival’ protest. For three days this week, thousands of people supporting XR’s Insure Our Survival campaign staged high-profile protests and actions in the City of London calling upon insurers to stop insuring all new oil, gas and coal projects. Fossil fuel projects – coal, gas and oil – cannot operate without insurance. This puts the insurance industry in a uniquely powerful position to have an impact on the future of our world. Extinction Rebellion say: Why Target Insurers? Insurance is the Achilles heel of the global fossil fuel industry. It’s what gives oil, gas and coal companies the confidence to dig and drill as the planet burns - by covering their operations against financial losses when things go wrong. Without insurance, major oil and gas companies cannot operate and climate-wrecking oil, gas, and coal exploration, production and distribution will fail to go ahead. Just 20 companies insure 70% of fossil fuel projects. A large number of these companies are based in the UK, mostly in the City of London. Insure Our Survival are paying them regular visits to convince them to abandon the oil, gas and coal industries completely. This works! UPDATE 22/10/24 - Generali (Italy's biggest insurer) has just announced an ambitious policy and becomes the first major insurer to limit insurance to midstream and downstream oil and gas including LNG infrastructure. Insurance is an industry that isn’t used to being targeted by protest, and which cracks under pressure when it's faced with public scrutiny and reputational damage. Back in April, soon after the 'Insure Our Futures' actions - Zurich announced they would not insure any new oil and gas projects after sustained activist pressure had exposed them to public scrutiny and threatened to tarnish their reputation. In March 2024, six days after Christian Climate Action occupied their City of London office lobby,
