ABOUT US
BUILDING THE MOVEMENT THAT CAN MAKE POLLUTERS PAY
No single organisation can take on the fossil fuel industry alone. But together, we can build the public and political support needed to win.
Some of the
UK's leading organisations,
one shared goal
The Make Polluters Pay Coalition brings together some of the UK's leading environmental organisations, international development charities and faith groups behind one shared goal: making the fossil fuel industry pay for the damage it has caused.
Together, our organisations reach millions of people across the UK.
Beyond the coalition we're building a much wider movement, including trade unions, community groups, mothers' networks, tax justice campaigners, politicians, journalists, researchers, frontline communities, youth campaigners and many others, working together to build the pressure needed for change.
The coalition is convened by Stamp Out Poverty, which works to connect partners, coordinate campaigning and help turn growing public support into political change.
Together, we're building a movement that can make polluters pay.
