Olympic Torch: Protest Against ArcelorMittal, The Maker Of The Torch

An activist is dancing with her hands tied by chains. Several collectives, including Attac, Oxfam, Greenpeace, Stop Total, and Extinction Rebellion, are organizing a protest action against ArcelorMittal, the giant producer of steel. It is part of a global campaign against ArcelorMittal called 'Shiny claims, dirty flames'. ArcelorMittal is sponsoring the France 2024 Olympic Games in France and is also making the Olympic torch. However, the different collectives are reminding that ArcelorMittal promised to invest $1.5 billion in mitigation for its CO2 emissions between 2021 and 2023 but used only $500 million. At the same time, ArcelorMittal is distributing $11 billion to shareholders. Activists are also denouncing the pollution (air, soil, water) caused by ArcelorMittal mining and its disdain for human rights. In Toulouse, France, on May 17, 2024. (Photo by Alain Pitton/NurPhoto)
