On April 19, The Climate Reality Project’s US branch joined several other organizations in a rally right outside of the World Bank in Washington, DC, where leaders held their spring meetings. The branch brought along a banner signed with messages from Climate Reality Leaders, recently trained in NYC, calling on one of the world’s biggest financial institutions to take bold and urgent climate action.
Few entities in the world have the power to accelerate the clean energy transition we need like the World Bank. Ajay Banga, in his first year as World Bank president, has made meaningful progress on climate finance. But there’s still more work to do. Join us in calling on World Bank President Banga to: - End all financing for fossil fuel projects worldwide.
-
Use World Bank lending to accelerate a just transition to clean energy in the Global South and beyond.
- Ensure Global South nations have access to the fair credit they need to build healthy and resilient net-zero economies.
