ANZ is a major sponsor of the Australian Open: a cultural highlight that promotes fitness, community, and the importance of getting outside. ANZ is also a funding new and expansionary coal, oil or gas projects, which are turbocharging the climate crisis and putting our sports at risk.

This is not a game. ANZ has a climate problem.

Due to increasing heatwaves, the Open and other matches are at risk of cancellation, our champions and fans at risk of heatstroke.

They need to hear from you that you want to see ANZ shift the billions of dollars they are responsible for out of burning and digging fossil fuels and into solutions that will protect us from droughts, floods and heatwaves.

To ANZ:

"As concerned citizens, customers, shareholders, and employees, we call on ANZ to stop financing the digging and burning of fossil fuels. The first steps are:

  1. divesting from thermal coal by 2030 or earlier;
  2. divesting from oil & gas in line with the Paris climate agreement;
  3. not investing in new or expansion coal, gas & oil projects.

Burning fossil fuels is the biggest driver of climate damage. We are concerned about the climate crisis and want action."

Stop financing climate change, nonrenewable energy and big mining or we will take our banking elsewhere. You now have competetors who offer equivalent services and are socially and environmentaly ethical. Honestly we might leave anyway. After the shameful big issue stunt and the royal commission we did get our mortgage with another bank. Adequate service is not enough especially when theres an app for that now.

Make future planned action NOW ANZ, or your share price will decline and your supporters will desert you.
David 2020-10-30 10:27:40 +1100
This world cannot continue to be motivated by greed and consumerism. The ANZ bank is by far the worst climate polluter of the 4 big banks. Use this opportunity right now to stop financing the use of fossil fuels, and instead demonstrate your commitment to dealing with climate change, and supporting a clean, renewable energy based future. Show us that you care more about people than profits.
