The Big Shift Global

Calling on the world's biggest public development banks to shift their finance out of fossil fuels & into sustainable, renewable energy. #StopFundingFossils

[The Big Shift Global @bigshiftglobal]

While the world is burning, the @WorldBank is silent.

Instead of leading, the Bank keeps bankrolling fossil fuels.

Now is a pivotal moment ahead of the @WorldBank Annual Meeting.

Some countries are forced to spend as much 💰️ repaying debts as they need to tackle climate change.

The debt and climate crises must be addressed together, to ensure that no-one is left behind in the energy transition.

SouthEast Asia can leap straight to renewables.
So why is the @ADB_HQ still giving gas a backdoor pass?

It’s time for the Bank to get serious and fund the clean energy future communities are already fighting for.

[The Big Shift Global @bigshiftglobal]

A polluted future? Only if banks keep funding it.

A clean future is what happens when we choose justice, renewables, and communities first.

Let’s start 2026 off with the truth...

From coal plants to gas pipelines, the World Bank helped fund the climate crisis that communities in the Global South are now forced to survive.

2026 has to be the year the Bank puts public finance behind genuine climate justice.

[The Big Shift Global @bigshiftglobal]

A little end-of-year joy, Big Shift style 🎄

Even in the fight for fair, fossil-free future where big banks are held to account, there's space for rest, play and community 🙌

We hope you have a great festive break, and see you next year for another year of big shifts.

Our message to the @ADB_HQ : communities and ecosystems are suffering from your gas projects.

A “transition” fuel shouldn’t create more debt, more disasters, more harm. ❌

This isn’t development.

We need a just transition that protects people and the planet. Are you with us?

This is the true cost of gas to communities in Asia.🌍

Destroying environments, endangering women & stealing children's futures. The @ADB_HQ might call it development. We'll call it what is it.

Asia deserves better.
No gas. No loopholes. No false solutions. ✊

[Oil Change International @PriceofOil]

At @COP30 rich countries insisted on a private finance-led just transition.

📉This model has failed to deliver the needed funds.

💸For the transition to succeed, we need a public finance-led approach.

.@ADB_HQ’s new energy amendments leave loopholes for more gas expansion, fuelling pollution, debt & displacement across Asia.

Asia deserves clean, secure, renewable energy. Not fossil lifelines and false solutions.

They say renewables are too expensive.💸

But they’re already cheaper than gas and coal in most of Latin America and they keep getting cheaper.

Clean energy means jobs, stability, and growth that lasts.

💥Just landed: Our response to COP30💥

Wealthy countries once again failed to pay their fair share while communities face disasters & debt.

The just transition mechanism is a chance for change but for MDBs to play a role, they must end fossil finance.
