We've reserved a place for you at our
Zoom Meeting ([link removed])
Enbridge Line 3
What the #&!! is going on?
"Within the next two decades, temperatures are likely to rise by more than 1.5C above pre-industrial levels, breaching the ambition of the 2015 Paris climate agreement, and bringing widespread devastation and extreme weather.
Only rapid and drastic reductions in greenhouse gases in this decade can prevent such climate breakdown, with every fraction of a degree of further heating likely to compound the accelerating effects..." - The Guardian on IPCC report
WE (you and I because we know about it)
HAVE TO GET THE WORD OUT!
We'll hear from
Jill Ferguson

350MKE Fridays for Future
Friday, August 13, 12:00 - 1:00 pm
Chase & Wells Fargo Banks
Wisconsin Ave. at Water St ([link removed]) .
Masks and Physical Distancing
On Friday, August 13th, activists around the country will organize actions & protests at the branches, offices, and headquarters of the banks funding Line 3.
Enbridge is building Line 3, a pipeline that would result in a 10% expansion of the tar sands and have the same climate impact as fifty new coal-fired power plants. Yet last month, major banks, such as JPMorgan Chase and Citibank, facilitated $1.5 billion in so-called sustainability loans to Enbridge.
We'll be uploading images of our Milwaukee event to the central campaign bulletin board. So let's get a turnout to show that Milwaukee cares!

DEFUND LINE 3: EXPOSE GREENWASHING DAY OF ACTION ([link removed])
Ahead of the Glasgow Climate Talks, ([link removed]) Line 3 is a litmus test for Wall Street. Either major banks stop funding the toxic Line 3 pipeline, or their climate promises aren’t worth the paper they are written.
On Friday, August 13th, activists around the country will deliver that message to the banks funding Line 3.
Our Demands of Wall Street
We demand that by November 1st, 2021, the start of the Glasgow Climate Talks, all financial institutions take the following steps:
1. Respect Human Rights and Indigenous Sovereignty: End all financial services for any project or company that violates human rights, engages in practices of racial discrimination, or fails to respect Indigenous People’s treaty rights, sovereignty, and right to Free, Prior and Informed Consent.
2. End Support for Deforestation: End all financial services for and investments in for any company involved in deforestation, natural land conversion or peatland destruction across its supply chain.
3. End Support for Fossil Fuels: Begin an immediate phase-out of all financial services for the fossil fuel industry, including immediately ending all financial services for any project or company that is engaged in expanding the extraction, production or transportation of fossil fuels.
