    Virunga: Africa's Most Beautiful and Diverse Oil Field?
    Keep oil exploration out of Africa's oldest national park.
    Your support really matters. People-power works. Together we will draw the line.
    Why Virunga?

    2
    Heard of Virunga? It's Africa's oldest national park, and a treasured World Heritage
    Site.
    Rainforests, volcanoes, rare and beautiful wildlife - Virunga has it all. People who
    live and work there know it's a very special place.
    But Virunga is at risk of becoming Africa's newest oil field. When we heard UK oil
    company Soco were exploring for oil inside Virunga, we had to draw the line.
    Some places are just too precious to exploit.
    Virunga and Oil
    Virunga National Park is the size of a small country, straddling the equator in
    Democratic Republic of the Congo.
    It's got more than its share of wonderful wildlife - not just huge numbers of unique
    birds, but African icons like lions, elephants, hippos, chimps and the remarkable
    okapi. And a quarter of the world's critically endangered mountain gorillas.
    Soco's exploring for oil isn't the only threat to Virunga - civil unrest and wars have
    put pressure on local people, wildlife and resources on-and-off for years. But we
    believe oil exploration would bring a new and unacceptable level of risk for
    Virunga's environment and communities.
    That's why we need to draw the line.
