We appeal to all possible organizations, institutions and citizens of all countries with an appeal for help and support in our fight against the powerful corporation Chevron. On 2 June 2013 at 6 a.m. Chevron again invaded on land leased for the construction of drilling rigs. Residents of nearby villages blocked the cars and did not allow for the commencement of works. A People are determined. We ask fro help in any form.


Why this is important

Żurawlów village (near Zamość) – residents’ protest against the unlawful activity of Chevron corporation.

Friends,

Text of the petition is a fragment of the open letter of residents of Żurawlów village (near Zamość in Poland). Currently, they are still protesting against the unlawful activity of international corporation, Chevron, on their land.
We are trying to get to 100,000 signatures, and could use your help.

People in France, Ukraine, Germany know more about the event than people in Poland (there is a media silence around the protest in Żurawlów, and other issues connected with shale gas).
We are ignored in our own county.

e.g. in Lithuania, Bucharest People are protesting to support residents of Żurawlów.

Voor wie de terminologie niet zo machtig is, het Engelse *fracking* wordt in het Nederlands (volgens Wikipedia) wel hydraulisch fractureren, fraccen of inderdaad fracking genoemd. De techniek wordt gebruikt bij de winning van schaliegas.
