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:
- divesting from thermal coal by 2030 or earlier;
- divesting from oil & gas in line with the Paris climate agreement;
- 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."

I hold 81000 ANZ shares
As a customer, I expect much more of ANZ. We can do better than stay with oil and gas. Renewable energy is our only choice.
I strongly urge your company to divest from thermal coal as speedily as possible and NOT invest in the oil and gas industries for the sake of ‘Planet A.’
Get with the program to save our planet

Shame On you ANZ
Hold you heads low!
Please stop financing fossil fuels! They are out of date and they hurt our planet. Get modern and start helping non-fossil fuels, especially if you want more people to bank with your bank.
As a client of the ANZ bank, I am very disappointed
