It's easy to start banking with Triodos and you’ll know your money is funding projects that make the world a better place. 

Dear John

This summer has been full of turmoil for many people. We’ve witnessed extreme weather sweep the globe because of a rapidly changing climate.

But despite the warnings of scientists, most traditional banks are still heavily invested in coal, oil and gas. The world’s 60 biggest private banks have invested nearly £2.8 trillion in fossil fuels since 2015 [1].

That could mean your money funding a new oil pipeline or deforestation – contributing to the climate emergency and often hitting marginalised communities the hardest.

Our partner, Triodos Bank, does things differently. Triodos is a sustainable bank, a certified B Corporation [2] and has never invested in fossil fuels, tobacco, fast fashion, weapons or ammunition. It's easy to start banking with Triodos and you’ll know your money is funding projects that make the world a better place.

If you open your first personal current account with Triodos Bank UK, £60 will be donated to us once your balance reaches £100. This applies if you’re a new Triodos customer or if you’ve got existing savings or investments with them. Eligibility, £3 monthly fee, and terms and conditions apply to this offer. This financial promotion has been approved by Triodos Bank UK.

The refer a friend scheme ([link removed]) is also a great way to spread the word if you’ve already got a Triodos current account and want to have an even bigger impact.

Last month’s IPCC report was a massive wake-up call for anyone still doubting the urgency of action to tackle the climate crisis.

Most importantly we need governments across the globe – including ours – to stop dragging their heels and help create a greener, fairer world.

And with the UN climate talks in Glasgow fast approaching, we know that lots of you are looking for ways to make a difference too. Switching to sustainable banking is just one and we look forward to sharing more with you over the next couple of months.
