Your bank has room for improvement on climate responsibility.
Progressive Building Society does not have commercial lending, so it is not funding fossil fuel companies. We'd like to see Progressive offer "green" products, such as loans for energy efficiency home improvements.
We'd also like to see Progressive measure its greenhouse gas emissions (including emissions enabled by its lending) and set targets to reduce such emissions.
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.
Banks live and die on their reputations. Mass movements of money to fossil-free competitors puts those reputations at grave risk. By moving your money to a sustainable financial institution, you will:
Send a message to your bank that it must defund fossil fuels
Join a fast-growing movement of consumers standing up for their future
Take a critical climate action with profound effects
