Relatives,
There’s a lot going on right now. We’re in the midst of a global pandemic. People around the country are taking to the streets to defend Black lives and protest police brutality. The clock keeps ticking on climate change. Throughout it all, big banks are continuing to fund fossil fuels.
By funding fossil fuel companies and projects, banks press the gas pedal on climate change. They fuel harm to communities sited near fossil fuel projects, as well as to communities that are already feeling the hurt from our warming climate. In recognition of our growing movement, many banks have taken steps away from coal or other fossil fuels — but we know they haven’t done nearly enough.
Join us for part one of a two-part webinar series that will break down the ways that banks fuel the climate crisis. : [link removed] You’ll get a better sense of who are the worst players across the world, and what people are doing about it. Plus, at the end we’ll ask you what you want to learn more about, and use that to inform part two!
