New Jersey nuns @SistersofPeace are fighting @Citi's attempt to stop shareholders voting on a resolution on Indigenous rights. Shareholders have the right to hold them to account! @standearth@amazonwatch https://t.co/xFFi76Oddw
There's nothing to see here. There's no need for further scrutiny of banks. They don't compound inequality and they're doing great on climate change (😬🤮) https://t.co/HWHbLzgEFL
2024 saw record heat and fading climate commitments in banking. Goldman Sachs exited NZBA, Morgan Stanley widened targets, and critics warn of “backsliding”. As political winds shift, can banks balance climate action with growth?

Climate groups have written to the global climate banking alliance after backflips by @MorganStanley & exit by @GoldmanSachs. Banks have signed up to Net Zero and investors, customers, workers and taxpayers demand they meet those commitments @TheBanker https://t.co/PwikDvFmvb
We do not #StandWithRGLNG. We stand with Juan Mancias and other members of the Carrizo Comecrudo Tribe fighting pollution on their ancestral lands. Get a grip @NextDecadeLNG
.@NatWestGroup is no angel
The bank helped @bp_plc raise $500,000,000 last year & the oil major is now drilling for fossil gas in Azerbaijan
This is a possible breach of the bank's climate commitments, according to @TBIJ#COP29#COP29Azerbaijan https://t.co/GraX4ZmkNt
Less than 100 miles from where world leaders have been discussing how to meet climate pledges at COP29, BP is drilling for gas
The project could inject more than 1 billion tonnes of carbon into the atmosphere (more than the UK emits over three years)

Banks say they're funding the energy transition but their targets to get there are a mess:
Incoherent, opaque, and unambitious, @ShareAction finds
Banks need to stop funding new oil and gas and fund genuine clean energy instead https://t.co/AuhxTwwIhJ
.@Barclays has sold all its shares in Israeli weapons firm @ElbitSystemsLtd totaling $3.44m
The bank has been under relentless pressure over its support of arms companies destroying Gaza
BUT Barclays mustn't quietly re-invest - we'll be watching https://t.co/PNBgA64lps
Get this: banks are finally agreeing to disclose their ratios of clean Vs dirty energy funding but now their lobby groups are muddying the water on what those disclosures look like.
You can't make this lot up

My next report will investigate the involvement of the private entities (including businesses, banks, pension funds, insurance companies and especially private military and security companies & weapons manufacturers) in the commission of international crimes in the occupied Palestinian territory. Anyone can make submissions:

Thank you @bmj_latest for responding to our concerns & no long accepting advertisements from banks that fund fossil fuels, such as Barclays Bank. 👏
Change is on the horizon. The health voice is strong and united.
We MUST move away from fossil fuels in the name of health.
The BMJ has gone further in its climate commitments, now banning ads from banks financing fossil fuels, as well as those producing fossil fuels! 🙌
This, @britishmuseum, is the kind of leadership this moment demands.
Stop being an apologist for Big Oil and #dropbp!
🥳GOOD NEWS FRIDAY
Media publication @bmj_latest bans ads from banks that fund fossil fuels
This follows complaints from readers about a @Barclays ad
Bit by bit, fossil-fuel-funding banks are losing their social licence

In public @UBS claims it is a climate leader. New info reveals that in practice, the bank finances the fossil fuel expansion of companies like Woodside, KEPCO and now, with a $172m bond, #ExxonMobil. Read my critique on the #SwissClimateRambles blog at https://t.co/hSaTvl3BoY
Yasher koach @Mzozane Roishetta Ozane for bringing the 🔥 to @Citi.
New devastating report directly links Citi's funding of methane gas export terminals to premature deaths, asthma, and millions in health costs every year.
Stop treating frontline communities as disposable.
#EnvironmentalRacism brought to you by @Citi. Its harmful fossil fuel investments devastate BIPOC communities & fuel climate destruction worldwide. Let's hold it accountable for prioritizing profit over people. #CorporateAccountability#ClimateJustice
