MAKE BIG OIL PAY: HOLD POLLUTERS ACCOUNTABLE IN WISCONSIN 

Wisconsin communities are already facing more flooding, extreme heat, and damage to roads, homes, and public buildings. These impacts strain local budgets and affect families in both cities and rural areas.

​

Research shows that major fossil fuel companies knew for decades their products contributed to climate change, yet failed to act. As a result, Wisconsin taxpayers are increasingly being asked to pay for climate damage through higher public costs.

​

A 2024 study estimates these impacts could cost Wisconsin at least $16 billion by 2040, with most of the burden falling on local governments. We believe families and communities should not be left paying for harm they did not cause. This petition calls on state, city, and county leaders to explore ways to hold major polluters accountable and protect Wisconsin communities.
