Earlier today, climate activists with 350 Brooklyn, Sunrise Movement, and
more joined forces to protest outside Citibank headquarters as investors
gathered in New York City. [ [link removed] ]Will you join the tweetstorm to stand with
the protesters?

Citi already agreed to stop funding the destructive East African Crude Oil
Pipeline (EACOP) — and you’d think that would be the end of it. But no.
Citi is going behind our backs by continuing to finance TotalEnergies, the
global energy company that’s building EACOP. So, as Total hosts its main
investors for Investor Day today, we’re making our voices heard.
Total wants to impress at its Investor Day event — and that’s why we need
to show investors how they’re funding dirty fossil fuels that are
destroying the planet.
John, we’re calling out destructive fossil fuel expansion — and
Citi’s hypocrisy — both on the ground and online. Will you join us?
[ [link removed] ]Send a tweet to Citibank demanding they stop funding TotalEnergies and
EACOP once and for all.

If built, EACOP will displace communities in Tanzania and Uganda along its
nearly 900 miles of pipeline. It’s been called “a carbon bomb for
humanity,”^1 and will throw even more fuel on the climate crisis fire.
All summer long, activists in the U.S. have been taking part in Summer of
Heat protests against EACOP in NYC — and many have been arrested.
Activists in Uganda and Tanzania have faced even worse — harassment,
violence, arrests and kidnappings — for speaking out.^2
That’s why it’s more urgent than ever to stand in solidarity in our
collective fight to end fossil fuel expansion.

Together, activists have pressured dozens of banks and insurance companies
not to finance or insure EACOP. We can push Citi to drop Total and EACOP,
too.
[ [link removed] ]Join in on the action today. Send a tweet to Citibank to demand that it
stop financing Total and EACOP.
