Reputational Risk Projects
Oil & gas projects are not only major sources of greenhouse gas emissions. They can also trigger or exacerbate violent conflicts, pollute the environment or harm local communities. All over the world, local citizens, scientists and environmental groups protest oil & gas projects or challenge them in court. Many projects are so harmful that they pose a reputational risk to the financial backers of the involved companies. GOGEL identifies reputational risk projects and links them to the involved oil & gas companies.
This part of the GOGEL is growing. We continuously track Reputational Risk Projects and update and add new projects on a regular basis. If you think we are missing an oil & gas project that meets the aforementioned criteria, please get in touch.
Conflict/Violence
Oil & gas projects can create or exacerbate already existing
causes of conflict and violence.
Environmental Destruction
Beyond their carbon footprint, oil & gas companies' projects
often have a severe impact on the environment.
Social Harm
Oil & gas companies' projects often have negative social effects
on local communities.
Litigation
Opposition against oil & gas can also take the form of
legal action to delay or cancel projects.
