Baltimore, Maryland

vs. BP et al.

Share

The City of Baltimore is suing 26 oil and gas companies — including ExxonMobil, Shell, Chevron, and BP — to hold them accountable and make them pay for lying about climate damages they knew their products would cause. 

“These oil and gas companies knew for decades that their products would harm communities like ours, and we’re going to hold them accountable. Baltimore’s residents, workers, and businesses shouldn’t have to pay for the damage knowingly caused by these companies.”
