To all Australian banks,

As the funders for many of our biggest and boldest projects, you hold the unique power to direct huge money into solutions to the climate crisis — and away from making it worse. We urge you to invest in our future, not coal and gas. We call on you to:

  • Set a deadline — 2030 or earlier — to end all your investments in thermal coal
  • Rule out funding any new or expanded thermal coal, oil or gas projects
  • Ramp up funding for climate solutions like clean energy

Would all banks please be leaders in the corporate world and get out of funding fossil fuels. The future of our children and grandchildren is too precious to risk. Fund renewables and sustainable storage options.
