Just Stop Oil is a British environmental activist group. Using civil resistance, direct action, vandalism and traffic obstruction, the group aims for the British government to commit to ending new fossil fuel licensing and production.[1] The group was founded in February 2022 and began protesting at English oil terminals in April 2022.[2] The group has received particular attention, positive and negative, for its methods of activism.[3][4][5][6]
