Former coal executive Ian Dunlop spoke out at Macquarie's annual general meeting today, warning "if you keep doing things in the way we've been doing it, and they lead to the potential temperature increase that have been mentioned at two and a half, three degrees ... they're not livable worlds"

@Macquarie has:

👎 weakened its climate language
🚩 increased fossil fuel financing
🚨 used catastrophic warming scenarios to justify new gas, while dismissing risk.

Rest in peace, @Macquarie's climate leadership ⚰️

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of #Macquarie’s climate ambition, following a long illness brought on by increased fossil fuel financing, weakened climate commitments, and backing fracking in the Beetaloo Basin.

We ensured Macquarie’s climate ambition got the farewell it deserved at its AGM today!
