To highlight damage caused by the oil and gas industry, campaigners from Fossil Free London interrupted the World Energy Council Assembly’s dinner at the Hilton in Mayfair on 3 December. Oil and gas executives had gathered to present and receive industry “achievement awards”. Award nominees and attendees included Shell, BP, and Ithaca Energy.

Campaigners chanted “no awards for climate criminals”, as they were dragged out of the building by security.

The protest comes after devastating flooding has killed at least 1,250 people across much of southeast Asia in recent days.
