While there are many different kinds of events happening this weekend, our partners and dozens of 350 local groups are taking action outside Federal Reserve branches to call for change at the Fed.
Our movement successfully pressured President Biden to nominate the most diverse and well-qualified slate of candidates to the Federal Reserve who will take climate risk seriously.1
Now it’s our job now to make sure that, once confirmed, these nominees get to work right away to drastically reshape our economy and cut off the flow of funds from big banks to fossil fuels.
Will you RSVP now to take action in D.C. this weekend to send a signal to the Fed and every decision maker that they must prioritize the needs of future generations – not fossil fuel profits?
Through these actions on Earth Day, we will demand that the Federal Reserve phase out all fossil fuel financing from the banks by 2030.
Together we can show the power of our demands and build the pressure needed to win.
Hope to see you there.
– Team 350
