AVAAZ to launch spoof advertisement targeting EXXON greenwash

As Obama opens a new round of global climate talks in Washington DC next week, oil companies are flooding the US Capitol with lobbyists—and US airwaves with misleading climate ads.

Avaaz is filming a spoof ad that looks and sounds just like Exxon's—except that it's an Avaaz actor telling the truth about climate change and oil-company obstruction. (Check out clips from the real Exxon ad, and photos from the set of Avaaz's new one, in the video on the right.)

We have to move fast. We've got the actor, producers, editors, and designers lined up. Donate now to help us launch an ad campaign next week before the talks, and use the oil industry's own imagery to push for climate action!
