We can’t stop climate chaos if banks like RBC keep funding fossil fuels
Canada’s biggest bank, RBC, talks about “purpose” and says climate change is a critical issue. But its business practices tell a different story:
$338 Billion in fossil fuel funding since Paris
Making RBC one of the biggest fossil banks on Earth
Financing Coastal GasLink, TMX, & US Gulf Coast Gas
Projects that violate Indigenous rights and poison communities of colour
Low clean to dirty energy ratio of 0.4:1
RBC ranks 97th of 100 global banks by BloombergNEF
It’s code red for humanity, but while our planet literally burns, banks like RBC are pouring more fuel on the fire.
Join the growing global movement to stop the funders of climate change.
