We're calling on Congress to co-sponsor and pass the Fossil Free Finance Act so that we can stop banks fuelling climate chaos, and instead invest responsibly. We're in a critical climate emergency. Temperature records are being shattered, climate disasters are mounting and our communities are suffering. Still, Wall Street banks continue to fund fossil fuel expansion and deforestation, gambling on risky dirty energy that puts communities and our economic system at risk. Since these banks won't stop on their own, we need the Federal Reserve (Fed) to step in. The Fed oversees our banking system and our economy. It has the power to stop money going to planet destroying projects. But right now, the Fed is choosing not to use any of its authority to rein in the big banks. Thankfully, Senator Ed Markey and Representative Ayanna Pressley have a plan: The Fossil Free Finance Act. [1] The FFFA would require the Fed to mandate the biggest banks to stop financing the climate crisis and deforestation, and instead align their financing with science-based emissions targets.
