National Parks 2026
Objectives
Protect National Parks
Target
Chevron
Gas station boycotts are highly actionable — consumers can switch brands at minimal cost. Chevron's Texaco brand expands their retail footprint making them doubly targetable. Their public lands lobbying record is well documented.
Better alternatives
Ways to take a stand
I pledge to i will give chevron a one-star review on google maps at my local station
Leaving a public review at your nearest Chevron station signals consumer dissatisfaction and is visible to thousands of potential customers. It takes only minutes and requires no spending change.
I pledge to i will delete the chevron app from my phone
Removing the Chevron app reduces engagement with their digital loyalty ecosystem and signals disengagement from their consumer data pipeline. It is quick, free, and immediately impactful.
I pledge to i will cancel my chevron techron advantage credit card
Closing a co-branded Chevron credit card removes a recurring financial relationship that drives loyalty spending at Chevron stations. This directly reduces Chevron's consumer revenue and loyalty program metrics.
I pledge to i will switch my regular fuel purchases to a non-chevron station for the next 30 days
Choosing a competitor station for all fill-ups over a month directly reduces Chevron's retail fuel revenue. Even a modest shift in consumer spending across many participants creates measurable economic pressure.
I pledge to i will stop purchasing chevron-branded motor oil and lubricants and switch to an alternative brand
Chevron sells consumer lubricants and motor oil (including the Havoline brand) through retail auto stores. Switching to a competitor brand withdraws spending from a profitable consumer product line.
I pledge to i will permanently stop filling up at chevron or texaco stations and switch to an alternative fuel provider
Making a long-term commitment to avoid all Chevron and Texaco-branded stations is the most direct and sustained form of consumer economic pressure available against Chevron's retail fuel business. Over time, this represents hundreds of dollars in redirected spending.
Target
ConocoPhillips
The Willow Project is among the most publicly visible fossil fuel-versus-public-lands controversies in recent years, with massive social media awareness. Consumers can boycott Phillips 66 branded stations directly. Strong existing campaign infrastructure exists around Willow.

Ways to take a stand
I pledge to i will share this campaign about conocophillips on my social media
Raising public awareness amplifies economic pressure by encouraging others to reconsider their fuel and energy choices. Visibility drives momentum for the campaign.
I pledge to i will leave a critical review of conocophillips on a public platform
Public reviews on Google, Yelp, or Trustpilot shape brand perception and can deter new customers. Aggregated negative sentiment creates reputational pressure on the company.
I pledge to i will stop purchasing fuel at phillips 66 and 76 branded gas stations
Phillips 66 and 76 stations are retail-facing brands with historical ties to ConocoPhillips infrastructure and branding lineage; redirecting fuel spending to competing stations reduces throughput revenue at these locations.
I pledge to i will switch my regular gas station to a non-conocophillips-affiliated brand
Consistently choosing competing fuel brands such as Shell, BP, or independent stations withdraws recurring consumer spending from ConocoPhillips-affiliated retail networks.
I pledge to i will divest any personal holdings in conocophillips stock or funds that include cop
Selling COP shares or switching to ESG funds that exclude ConocoPhillips reduces investor demand and signals financial disapproval to markets. Coordinated divestment can affect stock valuation over time.
I pledge to i will switch my home or business energy supplier away from any conocophillips-sourced natural gas provider
ConocoPhillips is a major natural gas producer; choosing energy suppliers that source from renewable or alternative providers directly reduces downstream demand for their core product.
Target
American Petroleum Institute (via member brands: Shell, TotalEnergies)
Shell gas stations are among the most common in the US and consumers can easily switch to non-API-member alternatives or EVs. The API lobbying connection to public lands harm is well-documented through FEC and lobbying disclosure records.
Better alternatives
Ways to take a stand
I pledge to i will delete the shell or totalenergies loyalty app from my phone
Removing loyalty apps reduces engagement data and severs the digital relationship these brands use to retain customers. It takes under a minute and signals disengagement from their consumer ecosystem.
I pledge to i will stop using my shell or totalenergies loyalty rewards card
Loyalty programs are designed to lock in repeat purchases; abandoning the card breaks that cycle and reduces the behavioral data these companies collect on your spending habits.
I pledge to i will switch my regular fuel purchases away from shell and totalenergies stations for one month
Redirecting even one month of fuel spending to independent or alternative fuel retailers directly reduces revenue to API member brands and demonstrates that consumer loyalty is not guaranteed.
I pledge to i will replace shell or totalenergies branded lubricants or motor oil with a competing brand
Shell and TotalEnergies both sell high-margin consumer lubricants (e.g., Shell Helix, Total Quartz); switching brands hits a profitable product line beyond just pump fuel.
I pledge to i will permanently switch my primary fueling station away from all shell and totalenergies locations
A permanent switch in fueling behavior represents a sustained, compounding revenue loss for these API member brands and undermines the market share arguments the institute uses in policy lobbying.
I pledge to i will transition my home or vehicle energy use away from products supplied by shell or totalenergies
Where available, switching home heating oil, natural gas supply contracts, or fleet fuel accounts away from Shell- or TotalEnergies-affiliated suppliers creates significant and lasting financial pressure on API's most powerful members.
Target
BP (bp pulse / Amoco / ARCO)
BP's retail fuel stations make them directly boycottable by everyday consumers. Their broken climate commitments (they publicly pledged net-zero and then reversed) create a powerful 'broken promise' campaign narrative on top of the public lands harm angle.
Better alternatives
Ways to take a stand
I pledge to i will delete the bp app from my phone
Removing the bp pulse app reduces BP's digital engagement metrics and loyalty program participation, directly signaling consumer disengagement from their ecosystem.
I pledge to i will cancel my bp fuel rewards membership
Cancelling your bp Rewards or BPme account removes you from their loyalty data pool and reduces the recurring revenue value they assign to you as a customer.
I pledge to i will stop purchasing fuel at bp, amoco, and arco stations
Fuel retail is a primary consumer-facing revenue stream for BP; redirecting even a single fill-up per week to a competitor directly reduces their pump volume and associated convenience store sales.
I pledge to i will switch my ev charging to a non-bp network
BP's bp pulse charging network is a growing revenue stream tied to their energy transition strategy; choosing competitors like Electrify America or ChargePoint undermines this pivot.
I pledge to i will avoid all bp-branded convenience store purchases for 30 days
In-store retail and food service at BP stations carry higher margins than fuel itself; avoiding these purchases for a month hits the most profitable part of their consumer business.
I pledge to i will commit to never purchasing fuel or convenience items at bp, amoco, or arco stations
A permanent switch away from all BP-branded retail locations represents the highest sustained economic pressure an individual consumer can apply, compounding lost revenue over time.
