Demand a Just Transition: Stop Using Geopolitics to Inflate Oil Prices and Invest in Renewable Energy
Related Article: Oil prices hold sharp gains ahead of Trump-Putin meeting By Investing.com - in.investing.com - Thursday, August 14, 2025, 10:34:38 PM Eastern Daylight Time
Target: U.S. President, U.S. Congress, and Department of Energy
Goal: Urge the U.S. government to end the use of oil sanctions as a political tool, prevent artificial inflation of oil prices, and invest in a rapid transition to renewable energy.
Recent reports show that oil prices are surging due to political threats and international negotiations, with the U.S. and Russia using energy as a bargaining chip. These actions do not serve the interests of ordinary people, who bear the brunt of higher fuel and energy costs. Instead of using sanctions and tariffs to manipulate markets and escalate conflicts, our leaders must prioritize the needs of communities and the planet.
Artificially inflated oil prices not only hurt working families at the pump and in their homes, but also prolong our dependence on fossil fuels, worsening the climate crisis. The time has come to stop using oil as a tool of international power games. We call for a just transition to renewable energy, protection for workers and communities, and an end to policies that put profits and politics over people and the planet.
Key Demands
- End the use of oil sanctions and tariffs as tools of geopolitical leverage.
- Reject any policy that artificially inflates oil prices and harms working people.
- Invest in a rapid and just transition to renewable energy sources.
- Protect workers and communities currently dependent on the fossil fuel industry through retraining and economic support.
- Commit to international cooperation for energy security and climate action, not escalation and conflict.
