### Message from IOS Campaign:
**This July marks one official year of the Insure Our Survival campaign**, and to celebrate in style we’re calling on everyone to escalate our actions at our local dirty insurers we’ve already targeted and plan our first direct action at those we haven’t yet put on notice. If you’ve been and put our demands to them already then we offer full support in training and resources to go back and pile on more pressure.
In the second week of July, we are calling on good folk across the UK to take action against their local dirty insurers, with a heavy emphasis on potential EACOP insurers and Marsh (who are filthy EACOP’s dirty broker) for those that have a choice of targets locally. From the streets to social media, we need your voices and creativity to make sure these companies know that we will resist their support of any carbon bomb, especially EACOP. We need your help to ramp up the pressure. Whether it's physical demonstrations, creative actions, or digital disruption, every action counts. Let's send a clear message: 'Rule out insuring EACOP, and all new Oil, Gas & Coal or be held accountable!'
### Escalating Actions
If you’ve already targeted an insurer and they haven’t changed course, escalation is often what gets results. If they ignored your rally, how about a lobby occupation this time. Had a lobby occupation with no change or engagement from the target? Perhaps it’s time for a rooftop banner drop or occupation? Could your group get someone outside every morning for a week or two, talking to staff arriving about their company's involvement in the increase in local flooding and destruction of countless species worldwide? Here is why escalation works:
- **We demonstrate staying power.** When they see we’re not going away, their resistance begins to crack. Insure Our Survival thrives on this consistency, as then they know we’ll keep returning as long as they fund destruction.
- **Unpredictability changes the equation.** After repeated low-level disruption, companies start asking not “Can we ride this out?” but “What’s next and how bad will it be?”
- **Escalation = amplification.** Bolder actions attract more media, energise other activists, and raise reputational and financial risks for the target.
We’ve been building momentum for a year. We’ve seen [major wins](https://rebeltoolkit.extinctionrebellion.uk/link/1613#bkmrk-this-works%21) and we need more. We don’t have twenty years. We need action now.

# September 2025 Wave of Actions
#### International Wave of Action
This year Insure Our Survival will be going even more international, with a planned series of major coordinated multi-country actions that aim to do greater damage to the reputations and profits of some of the worst offenders. UK teams can take action in concert with frontline and most affected communities alongside those in major insurers home nations and key markets in action with us on the same day against the same target.
So watch this space and we will notify trusted teams of targets for September as they are locked in.
