About Oil Change International
Oil Change International is a non-profit organization that campaigns to expose the true costs of fossil fuels and hasten the ongoing transition towards clean energy. We're a small, gutsy group that wages hard-hitting campaigns, grounded in solid and credible research, to push the energy industry towards an environmentally and socially sustainable future. We work together with a broad network of allies, in the United States and globally, that are committed to identifying and overcoming political barriers to a clean energy transition and shifting the balance of power in the energy industry.
Oil Change's work is based on well-researched analysis of the fossil fuel industry and government policies relating to fossil fuels and clean energy. Domestically in the United States, we are focused on a Separation of Oil and State by exposing and ending the cycle of dirty energy money lining the halls of our government from the fossil fuel industry and going back out again in the form of fossil fuel subsidies. In addition, Oil Change also conducts corporate and policy research on the fossil fuel industry, providing hard-hitting information and campaign materials to the broader community. Internationally, we work to expose and end the massive public support going towards the fossil fuel industry and work to shift international finance to support clean energy and energy access for the poorest.
Founded in 2005, Oil Change International now has more than 300,000 supporters, a creative, passionate and dedicated staff of eighteen, and an increasingly broader reach domestically and internationally. Known both for our credible, insightful research on the fossil fuel industry and our aggressive, creative nonviolent campaign tactics, Oil Change is a talented group that continues to punch above its weight.
