Yorkshire Building Society

Your bank is climate responsible.

We love Yorkshire Building Society! It does everything that we would expect a Great building society to do:

  • Does not lend to companies involved in the fossil fuel sector
  • Has a clear policy stating that it does not lend to that sector, and
  • Has credible climate targets
  • We would like to see it offering green products that reward customers for engaging in climate-friendly practices.

    Bank.Green was founded on the belief that banks have had an easy time from their customers for too long.

    “We’re on a mission to build a greener society by ensuring high environmental standards become integrated into all business operations. We’ll achieve this through four ambitions: further embedding operational environmental standards; developing our carbon emission reduction commitment; addressing the financial risks of climate change; growing communications and engagement.”
