Policy - this is a chance for Australia's biggest bank to align actions with words. Commbank talks about getting to net zero emissions and that means Commbank needs to end this totally toxic relationship with the fossil fuel industry - no new fossil fuel financing, period.

Commbank loaned 14 billion to fossil fuels since 2016. No matter how much money banks and big corporations pour into their greenwashing, they really only care about profits while our communities pay the price.
It’s clear what we need to do - we can’t leave the transition to banks, fossil fuel corporations or their puppets in government. We need to organise our communities and build our power so that we are stronger than the fossil fuel corporations.
Come along Wednesday 10th May at 11:00am at Commbank Brisbane City (on the corner of Edward Street and Queen Street) to let Commbank know that we are watching them and here to hold them accountable we want Commbank this year to break up with the fossil fuel industry and:
- Rule out new corporate project loans to coal, oil and gas
- Reduce fossil fuel exposure to zero by 2030
- Invest in the rapid and fair transition to renewable energy.
What: Week of Action: Tell Commbank to break up with fossil fuels this financial year.
When: Wednesday 10th May, 11:00am
Where: Commbank Brisbane City, 240 Queen St, Brisbane City QLD (on the corner of Edward Street and Queen Street)
Let's make sure Commbank breaks up this totally toxic relationship with fossil fuels for good this financial year!
