Morning, @sciencemuseum! Just so you know, Chair of the Adani Group and two execs from your sponsor Adani Green Energy have been indicted, and an arrest warrant issued for Gautam Adani. 😮 Will you now *finally* be cutting ties to Adani? 👀

Sorry @ThangamDebb - calling out unethical sponsorship deals is *not* pointless! 🤨💰🏛️ This is a disappointingly uninformed and misleading piece which overlooks the fundamental reasons why unethical corporations with an image problem like BP seek to sponsor the arts... 1/x

Siri, how do you say “I don’t give a f*** about your future”, in climate-wrecking, war-fuelling fossil fuel producer speak? “BP abandons oil and gas pledge as it prepares to target Middle East” telegraph.co.uk/business/2024/…

Shame on the @BritishMuseum Director. "I think you have to have very good reasons for turning down money that would help keep the museum free to the public.” Look at the accounts. 👀 BP sponsorship does NOT help to keep the museum free to the public. theartnewspaper.com/2024/09/16/wil…

“We have to be vigilant that we don’t allow our culture-making to become commodified, to be used as a product to clean up a brand.” Our Co-Director @TheGarrard spoke to @TheStage as part of this new piece on the challenges of ethical sponsorship of the arts… 1/3

This. Is. Grim. 🤢 BP is cutting renewables. Putting billions into more oil and gas. But now, it’s desperately greenwashing its image…by sponsoring and renaming a music arena in Birmingham but using its EV charging brand! 🫨🛢️🎶

Earlier this year, several architect groups said they wouldn’t bid for the @britishmuseum’s redevelopment due to sponsorship by oil giant BP. 🔥🛢️ We urge the shortlisted architects to reconsider and withdraw their bids, until BP is dropped by the Museum! architectsjournal.co.uk/news/british-m…

As Future Architects Forum put it earlier this year... 'Such donations by oil companies are transparent acts of reputation washing and any architect with the slightest pretence of social concern must refuse to become complicit.’ architectsjournal.co.uk/news/british-m…

Nope, it’s not #AprilFoolsDay. BP is *actually* partnering with NASA to drill on the moon and Mars…and because it will help BP advance its oil and gas drilling on Earth. 😠 Because burning one planet isn’t enough for @bp_plc. 🔥🌎🛢️ theguardian.com/business/artic…
