BP profits: Greenpeace comment

In response to reports that BP intends to move away from renewables and increase oil and gas production, Elena Polisano, head of Greenpeace's climate justice campaign, said: “It's so jarring for BP to double down on fossil fuels while the world is still reeling from the latest gut-punches of extreme weather - from Storm Éowyn, to the ferocious LA wildfires, and floods in Queensland, Australia. 

“Pressure is growing for governments to see these fossil fuel billions as fair game to be directed towards extreme weather recovery funds, as is already happening in Vermont and New York.

“The climate crisis is fuelled by BP, so it's only fair to make polluters pay."
