Your Signature is Needed: Toxics dumped into the sea

BREAKING NEWS: Activists launch global HUNGER STRIKE to hold Formosa Plastics accountable for their environmental disasters! [Sign the petition to support their demands!]( Formosa Plastics is responsible for devastation across the world, Friend. In Texas, they illegally released billions of plastic pellets into waterways for years. In Louisiana, they’re trying to build a giant plastics complex in an area already so polluted that it’s nicknamed Cancer Alley. And in 2016, a Formosa plant’s toxic release ruined the livelihoods of MILLIONS of people in Vietnam. Now, many brave souls are launching a Hunger Strike to DEMAND justice for those hurt by Formosa’s legacy of harm. They’ll need as much help as they can get, Friend – and every day activists will be getting hungrier, which is why we need you to act right now! [Please, Friend, support striking activists and stand up to greedy Formosa Plastics! We need at least 1 of every 6 people reading this email to sign the petition in order to hit our goal!]( [SIGN THE PETITION]( The disaster in Vietnam occurred when a Formosa steel plant dumped toxic chemicals into the sea. The results: untold numbers of marine animals killed. More than 100,000 fishermen’s livelihoods ruined. Impacts to more than 4 MILLION residents in four different provinces. Yet, most of these victims have not received ANY direct compensation from Formosa. This is why activists have launched a hunger strike. It’s been years since this disaster, and justice has not been achieved. If Formosa isn’t held accountable for its actions in Vietnam, what’s to stop them from repeating those transgressions again in Cancer Alley or other places around the world? [Tell Formosa Plastics: STOP polluting communities and COMPENSATE the victims of the environmental catastrophes you’ve directly caused!]( [SIGN THE PETITION]( Standing with you, Paloma Henriques Senior Petrochemical Campaigner, Friends of the Earth Contact Us: Friends of the Earth U.S. Washington, D.C. | Berkeley, CA 1-877-843-8687 [Contact us](foe.org/about-us/contact/) Email Preferences: [Click here to unsubscribe]( Learn more: www.foe.org/news www.foe.org/about-us www.foeaction.org Connect: [Facebook]( [Twitter]( [Flickr]( © 2021, Friends of the Earth.
