Good Idea: Change to a climate friendly Bank this weekend

https://www.not-ship.com/banks-are-funding-climate-chaos-you-dont-have-to-2/

Your bank might be doing more damage to the climate than flying. In 2024, banks poured $869 billion into the fossil fuel industry, a huge jump from the year before, funding the companies building pipelines and drilling for oil around the world. A major banking alliance that had committed members to move away from financing high-emission sectors fell apart last year when nearly every top fossil-fuel-funding bank pulled out.

According to a report by Project Drawdown, banking with a carbon-intensive U.S. bank means you could be indirectly lending 20 to 30 percent of your money to the industries most responsible for the climate crisis. The carbon footprint of where you keep your cash can actually outweigh the impact of flying. The good news is that switching matters. Moving just $8,000 from a high-carbon bank to a low-carbon one can cut your personal emissions by twice as much as going vegetarian.

Banks are funding climate chaos. You don't have to.

Switching banks could be one of the most climate-friendly decisions you make.

“We must #protest. #Interrupt. #Disrupt. #Strike.
And above all — prepare for massive #boycotts.
Not temporary boycotts. Not symbolic ones.
Permanent #divestment from the #monopolies that bankroll #authoritarianism and manufacture #oligarchs.”

@dalfen Given that this makes the #USA more unpredictable than "P.R." #China, #NorthKorea and #Russia, I'd simply refuse to trade at all with the #US if not #Embargo the USA entirely.

Because only #Boycott, #Divestment and #Sanctions will work as the last peaceful option against #Trumpism right now…

"Germany is facing calls to withdraw its billions of euros’ worth of gold from US vaults, spurred on by the shift in transatlantic relations and the unpredictability of DT.

Germany holds the world’s second biggest national gold reserves after the US, of which approximately €164bn (£122bn) worth – 1,236 tonnes – is stored in New York."
