Your bank has room for improvement on climate responsibility.

The good news is that your bank is not a leading fossil fuel funder and we have found positive evidence that they care about the environment. The bad news is that either a) we haven’t yet been able to confirm for certain that it does not fund fossil fuels or b) it funds at least four times more renewables than fossil fuels, but it still funds fossil fuels.

Since your bank is showing themselves to be somewhat socially responsible, that ethos should now incorporate an urgent end to fossil fuel financing. To take positive action, keep on scrolling…

Commercial lending accounts for only a small percentage of credit unions’ overall lending. In many cases credit unions lend exclusively to their members, who are individuals and small businesses. On this basis, the risk of them lending to the fossil fuel industry is low and they are a relatively safe bet.  

We were founded on the belief that banks have had an easy time from their customers for too long. Our mission is to encourage as many people as possible to take a stand - to refuse to let their money fuel environmental destruction any longer. Join us in building this movement by pressuring your bank to do better, or by taking your money to somewhere that cares about our planet's future.
