As more banks declare they won’t fund fossil fuel projects, we’ll see a domino effect and every project will be harder to fund. As more investors – both public and private institutions – demand fossil free indexes, the capital needed to fund these monstrous mega-projects will be impossible to raise. And that’s not to even mention how hard it will get for the world’s biggest polluters when no-one will insurer their mines, pipelines, and power-stations anymore. Our activism against these bad actors in the finance sector will build our power, make real change and be fun. You have a chance to use your power. But this should also be accompanied by a bigger critique of the system that says it’s okay to put profit first. We have a chance to imagine a new financial system, even as we go about making the one we have play a pivotal role in ending the era of fossil fuels.

The money that’s fueling the fire of global warming — and how we stop it. The biggest climate mobilization in history simply won't be enough if it stops this week and people just go home. And and won't count for much if we can't direct this energy towards the companies who are are not only causing climate change, but profiting from it.
