Equator banks just finished two years of talking on new Principles, leading to very little substantive change. Financing climate disasters will continue. banktrack.org/article/with_n…. #Equatorbanksact, #fossilbanks #responsiblebanking

Has @AbsaSouthAfrica bank now committed to stop financing the coal sector, or has it not? From the looks of it, too many exemptions and loopholes to qualify as a serious step forward, but we love to be convinced otherwise. #FossilBanksNoThanks miningweekly.com/article/absa-i…

What does the @EIB understand that commercial banks do not? While the European Investment Bank announces end to all fossil fuel financing by 2021, commercial banks lost track of what future needs; an end to fossil fuels. #equatorbanksact, #fossilbanks eib.org/en/press/all/2…

Banks have an opportunity to make good on their commitment to #humanrights and the environment. Please ask them to revise the #EquatorPrinciples to better align with international standards for defending and protecting #IndigenousPeoples and #MotherEarth. equator-principles.com/EP4/

We are over three months late now in seeing the revised draft Equator Principles released for public comment. What could have happened; non complying banks obstructing? FAKE news becoming real? equator-principles.com/ep-association… #EquatorBanksAct
