Our Cause

Oil sits at the center of most of our greatest environmental, health, human rights and security challenges today. Oil is fully integrated into the structures and operations of governments, economies and societies around the world, especially in the U.S.

Our Mission

Our mission is to increase choice by decreasing and ultimately ending global oil dependency through educating and moving individuals, governments, and civil society towards non-petroleum sources of energy.

Our Organization

EndOil is a registered 501 (c)(3) non-profit organization, founded in 2004, dedicated to educating and fostering direct action to promote energy alternatives and end oil dependency and the health, environmental, and social ills related to its extraction and usage both in America and around the world. In order to do this, it creates, invests in, and administers campaigns, partners with like-minded organizations, provides educational information, and creates a forum for discussion. We believe direct-action and strong alternatives are the best ways to create change, and everything we do is intended to inform, encourage, and inspire action.

EndOil organizes and supports initiatives and movements that:

1. Educate on and promote responsible alternatives;
2. Monitor and call attention to the impacts of oil dependency;
3. Resist oil-related activities and those entities that promote and profit from them; and
4. Work to repair the damage, both human and environmental, of oil dependency.

Our goal is to build a young, active, and non-partisan supporter base large enough and dedicated enough to enact real change.

Our Initiatives

Communities for Clean Ports

Communities for Clean Ports (CCP) is a resource for individuals and organizations fighting to end the port-related pollution and the public health, environmental, and economic costs it causes. Port Pollution Poisoning directly and intimately connects the daily lives of real people to environmental action, public health, and social and economic justice. Ending port pollution is a crucial part of ending the health and economic tax it levies on those in port communities. CCP works alongside allied organizations large and small—from environmental and community groups, to social and economic justice organizations, to organized labor and other advocates for workers. Please visit http://www.CleanPorts.org for more information.

A New Model for Social Advocacy

EndOil’s website, EndOil.Net (EON) will be the place in which the worldwide anti-oil and oil alternatives community will gather, grow and be empowered to educate, evangelize and self-mobilize to promote alternatives to petroleum based energy and end oil dependency. To accomplish this, EndOil is planning nothing short of a new model of social advocacy - one that will combine the best aspects of social networking and online advocacy. EON will turn the full suite of organizing tools over to those who join the online community – from petitions to pledges. EON’s decentralized, user-driven Web 2.0 approach will empower its community to fight entrenched oil interests on multiple levels, at thousands upon thousands of points around the world.
