Photos and brief report from Campaign Against Climate Change's 'Expose Exxon Day' at the UK headquarters of the world's largest oil company.



Around 100 people turned up on a gloriously sunny Good Friday at ExxonMobil (Esso)'s UK headquarters in Leatherhead, Surrey for an Easter action organised by Campaign Against Climate Change. The vigil and protest ran for 24 hours, starting from Thursday early evening. There was a chilled-out festival vibe on Friday, with colourful costumes and banners, live acoustic music, speakers, poetry, food stalls and face-painting.


ExxonMobil (Esso) has for years been using its vast wealth to run a cynical global campaign of funding junk science to spread disinformation and deliberately muddy the waters on our understanding of climate change, and using its clout with the Bush administration to block recognition of climate change and global action to reduce emissions.
