Head in the Tar Sands

in fossilfuels •  7 years ago 

Banks are back in the dirty business of fossil fuel investing, with over $100 billion plunged into dirty works last year thanks to POTUS. Funding for tar sand oil extraction has doubled. The Paris agreement on climate is long forgotten as global emissions will increase with carbon heavy tar sands exploited, extreme deepwater oil and coal. JPMorgan Chase has increased their outlays for coal funding 21 times and quadrupled investment in tar sands. Rainforest Action Network (RAN) has spoken out strongly against banks lack of accountability and exploitation of the planet and toxic ramifications.
