We need to join forces with the parties resisting Shell destruction and exploitation in the many locales and countries where this resistance has matured, and in those places where it is new or incipient. It is a winning strategy to coordinate across borders just as Shell’s head office coordinates its subsidiary behavior in all the countries with Shell subsidiaries. The best frame for this is, I think, Oil Watch. Of great use too is the Indigenous Environmental Network. Along with these two networks there are the less global and less formal multiple networks through which we can educate and discuss coordinated joint cross-border action against Shell that does two things: (1) stops Shell profit taking and associated destruction if even for a very short time and (2) affirms real social alternatives based on repairing the ecology and making a power shift to a different civilization based on commoning and solar energy.
