Dear Green American,

Is your money sitting at one of the 10 US megabanks that disproportionately finance fossil fuels?

Moving your money to a community development or minority depository bank or credit union is one of the most effective things you can do to fight the climate crisis while building your community.

Consider:

Every $1,000 in savings at a U.S. megabank is roughly equivalent to the direct emissions generated by flying from New York to Seattle every year, according to Project Drawdown.

$62,500 at a U.S. megabank could be responsible for as much carbon (about 8 tons) as all the heating, driving, flying, cooling and cooking an average American does in six months, according to Kat Taylor of Beneficial State Bank and Bill McKibben of Third Act.

On average, $24 of every $100 lent by Wall Street megabanks are repurposed to fossil fuels, according to BankFWD.

Are you ready to move your money to a bank or credit union that builds your community instead of fossil fuels? Then our Better Banking Action Hour is for you.

Join us on Thursday, January 22, at 7 p.m. ET / 4 p.m. PT to learn:

How banks use your deposits

How to find a bank or credit union that doesn’t finance fossil fuels
