TODAY: In the 82nd day of protesting @Citibank, scientists, faith leaders and climate activists chain themselves to the bank’s global HQ to demand that Citi listen to the science and stop funding fossil fuels.
We won’t stop until they stop. #SummerofHeat
Breaking: faith leaders, scientists, youth activists & orcas unite to demand that @Citi stop financing fossil fuel expansion & the genocide in Gaza.
For an hour, nearly 1,000+ bankers were unable to get into the HQ.🧵
I'll be closely following the court hearing in the case against climate activists and human rights defenders John Mark Rozendaal & Alec Connon in New York, #USA tomorrow. I express my strong concern at the charges brought against them @usmissiongeneva
Six Costco members and shareholders were arrested at Costco’s global HQ in Issaquah, WA yesterday.
@Costco would rather send their own members and shareholders away in handcuffs than meet with them about their climate concerns.
Costco: drop dirty @Citi!

❗@Vanguard_Group just pulled out of the Net Zero Asset Managers initiative in a move that essentially aligns the firm with climate deniers.
Vanguard’s leaders are risking our future & they’re doing it out of fear and greed. #WTFVanguard https://t.co/iD7FOVTaw6
@Vanguard_Group is sinking our collective ship with its hundreds of billions invested in fossil fuels—so our eco-doom carnival breached in their back yard all summer long, conscripting mutineers of all ages!

Incredible #BlameWallStreet action yesterday in Portland by @350_PDX @SunrisePDX@TIAADivest targeting @TIAA!
TIAA - one of the largest retirement fund managers in the US, is currently funding coal + fracking companies to the tune of tens of billions of dollars. 🤬💥
The climate crisis is here, but Vanguard refuses to hear out investors or advocates who are demanding climate safe investing options.
Why is @Vanguard_Group ignoring its customers? #FixMyFunds
Yesterday in San Francisco activists took over one of Chase’s largest events of the year to make it clear: world destroyers don’t get to have positive PR events.
A full 🧵
It’s 2022: we don’t need more massive polluting fossil fuel projects. I’m joining thousands of people around the world to call on @LibertyMutual to drop the toxic Trans Mountain tar sands pipeline.
#LibertyDropTMX#stopTMX
Looking for someone to blame for the extreme heat currently scorching much of the world?
Banks like @Chase, @Citi & @BankofAmerica should be near the top of your list.
