"If banks won’t stop funding climate devastation, our government must force their hand, and Senator Merkley's bills would force the action we need," said David Turnbull of Oil Change International.
“This report shows that the UK has a clear opportunity to show climate leadership and stop propping up deadly fossil fuels with public money.
Limiting warming to 1.5ºC is both urgent and possible, but governments and investors alike need pathways that allow them to plan for success, not further entrench fossil fuels.
Today, the French government outlined new measures aimed at greening the country’s export credit support policy. Under the proposed new policy, France will continue supporting fossil fuel projects worldwide until at least 2035. OCI urges the French government to reconsider this end date as it is grossly misaligned with the Paris Agreement.
"Chase’s path to aligning with the Paris Agreement is obvious — it must stop funding fossil fuels immediately. Anything short of an end to fossil finance is woefully insufficient."
