Coal funder, SMBC, withdraws their application to the GCF
Hi,

People power has once again shown that it is possible to stop the world’s 
biggest bankrollers of climate change.

The massive online protests that you joined together with many others from 
different parts of the world have forced Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation’s 
withdrawal from the Green Climate Fund (GCF), a global fund under the 
auspices of the United Nations climate pact allocated for low-emission and 
climate-resilient development.



Celebrate this victory by sharing the news on social media.

At the GCF Board meeting that took place last night, it was announced that 
SMBC withdrew its application for accreditation with the GCF.

But our work is not finished yet.

We will continue to challenge governments and businesses to put people and 
planet first – to immediately stop further investments in fossil fuels and 
transition towards 100% renewable energy.

Onwards,

Chuck Baclagon for 350.org
