Marches and banners don’t move oil giants. Shareholder votes do. Follow This turns thousands of ordinary people and major investors into a voting bloc Big Oil can’t ignore. Join us and force them to face the vote.
From €30 a year. Takes one minute.
The climate crisis is not a mystery. Oil and gas companies drive 70% of global emissions. Every year their boards face the same choice: keep drilling, or move the money to clean energy.
Every year they choose drilling. Because the pressure hasn’t yet reached a tipping point.
You can change that. By joining Follow This you fuel the movement that moves oil companies. We confront their boards at their own shareholder meetings with climate resolutions, backed by investors too big to ignore.
Join the movement today.
HOW IT WORKS
The real decisions get made behind closed doors. We found the key: holding oil majors accountable at shareholder meetings to shift investments to clean energy and slash emissions.
You become a green shareholder. That's the honorary title we give our members. You don't need to buy or own shares. Your contribution funds the campaign and adds weight to every resolution we file.
Follow This holds shares in major oil and gas companies. That gets us inside their annual meetings. We challenge them: invest your brains and billions in the energy of the future. Or explain to your investors why you won't.
Once a year, the board has to face the people who own the company. We rally the pension funds and major investors who hold the real voting power. Together, we hold the board to account. On the record, in public.
Oil giants don’t change because we ask nicely. They change when shareholders vote. Here’s what those votes have already achieved.
In 2017, just 6% of Shell’s shareholders back our resolution. It is enough to make Shell the first oil major in history to set a climate target.
By 2021, 30% of Shell's shareholders vote with us. At Chevron, 61%. At Phillips 66, 80%. That level of revolt leaves the board no choice but to listen and act.
Follow This–backed investors win record 30% support at TotalEnergies' 2023 AGM. Up from 17% in 2020, despite the Ukraine war and Covid rebound headwinds.
In 2024, ExxonMobil sues Follow This to keep our resolution off the ballot. The case is dismissed. You don’t sue a movement that doesn’t matter.
In 2026, BP refuses our resolution. Investors revolt: two board proposals defeated, and the new chair took a record protest vote. Weeks later, he is ousted.
TIME TO ACT
Big Oil won’t change on its own. Pressure works best where they can’t ignore it: the shareholder meeting. By joining Follow This you become a green shareholder. Together we take on the biggest emitters on earth.
