The #OneforOne rule: banks' and #FossilFuel companies' worst nightmare! Here's why you should care about MEPs' vote tomorrow @Europarl_EN 👇

[350.org Deutschland @350Deutschland]

We know that a few hundred people closing their accounts won't be enough to stop #DeutscheBank from making their millions with fossil fuels. But it's crucial we start talking about the need to regulate banks. That's why the #OneforOne vote in Brussels tomorrow is crucial.

[Till Ehrmann @ehrmann_till]

🔥 Happening now: 56k strong #OneForOne petition handed over to MEP Ferber and Fernandez mock-ups, who prefer fossil fuel profits over people's & planet's safety. @fridaysforfutur @SumOfUs @350Deutschland

Do you remember how the EU Commission asked BlackRock to draft a study on sustainable finance in 2020, and got heavily criticized for it ? Well, it appears the EU executive finally decided to fix the problem !

[Corporate Europe Observatory (CEO) @corporateeurope]

In 2020 when responding to a complaint over leaving politically crucial work on banks and climate change to BlackRock, the EU Commission said it was mainly technical work. Friday they refused to release its exchange w BlackRock as it would reveal the policy options discussed.😕

[Change Finance @ChangeFinance_]

Despite claims to be transparent, the @EU_Commission has refused to release the report written by @BlackRock on sustainable finance before it presents its new strategy on Tuesday.

What are they hiding? Did BlackRock write the conclusions?

[Change Finance @ChangeFinance_]

🚨BlackRock’s lobbying web exposed!

With its privileged position in multiple influential groups, @Blackrock has a grip on the EU’s sustainable finance plans.
