Congratulations - @CIMBMalaysia becomes the first emerging markets bank to develop a strong coal exit policy. Now other ASEAN banks must follow this lead in the run up to #COP26 and fight the #climateemergency

[Laurence Tubiana @LaurenceTubiana]

Good news from @CIMBMalaysia. Ending finance to new #coal projects and exiting coal entirely by 2040 is essential to achieving the #ParisAgreement. Time for other ASEAN banks to follow this leadership by @COP26 and tackle the #climatecrisis

One of the key reasons our economies are so unstable is that we're liquidating nature for short-term output: the benefits we take are c$125trn/year & global GDP (a poor metric, I know) is c$85trn/year, so a whopping $40trn nature deficit per annum @planet_tracker @CampanaleMark

THREAD: Why is this hugely significant for #ClimateAction?

This is a fivefold increase from the @IDFC_Network contributions to #greenfinance in 2017!

The group of banks committed around $200 billion in 2017 to #greenfinance (1/)

Tax pollution not people.

Stop subsidies to fossil fuels.

Stop building new coal plants by 2020.

Ridiculous! UK government raises VAT on solar panels to 20% while airlines are exempt from VAT on aviation fuel. This policy change is a giveaway to the fossil fuel industry. #ClimateEmergency #ExtinctionRebellion @flyingless

None of the “big six” development banks has yet laid out a roadmap toward 1.5 degrees, as New York City @nycgov has done, argues @_HWright @Devex #climatechange https://t.co/81pr6jI3r5 #WBGMeetings

Graph by @WRIFood shows the biggest chunk of land can be liberated for forests through a shift in diets.

Vital to get to net zero emissions by mid-century and avoid #ClimateEmergency #MeatlessMonday #veganfood
