Halt oil operations until safety measures in place

Civil society group, A Fair Deal for Guyana – A Fair Deal for the Planet is demanding the halt of oil and gas operations until proper environmental safety measures are in place.

“WE DEMAND a pause on oil and gas operations until ExxonMobil guarantees that proper environmental safeguards are in place to protect our lands, oceans and climate,” states the group in an advertisement which appeared during last week’s energy conference and expo.
