Pressure mounts over museum’s sponsorship deals as open letter expresses ‘deep concern’
More than 40 senior academics and scientists have vowed not to work with the Science Museum as the row over its financial relationship with fossil fuel corporations escalates.
In an open letter, prominent figures including a former chair of the UN’s climate body the IPCC and several leading scientists, many of whom have worked closely with the museum in the past, say they are “deeply concerned” about its fossil fuel sponsorship deals and they are severing ties with the museum until a moratorium is announced.
