<P>Insurance giant Munich Re is <STRONG>using a dodgy loophole to
back some of the world’s dirtiest coal projects</STRONG> -- like the
mammoth Bełchatów plant in Poland, Europe’s biggest carbon
polluter!</P>
<P>Instead of underwriting coal mines and power stations directly,
it insures other companies doing it — <STRONG>allowing it to keep
its hands clean, while still profiting from dirty fossil
fuels.</STRONG></P>
<P>But now the world’s No.1 reinsurer, SwissRe, has promised to stop
this practice, and <STRONG>pressure is mounting on Munich
Re</STRONG> -- the second biggest -- to follow suit. </P>
<P>Its annual shareholder meeting is in <STRONG>just 5
days</STRONG>. If enough of us sign we can shine a light on its
double dealings -- and embarrass the company into action. </P>

Munich Re: say no to coal, stop insuring disaster</A></P>
<P>Munich Re promised three years ago to step back from coal. But
today it’s still insuring companies like PZU, which insures most
Polish coal mines and plants -- including Europe’s biggest CO2
emitter. <STRONG>This is greenwashing in the extreme.</STRONG></P>
<P>The coal industry is the <STRONG>single biggest cause of climate
change and kills hundreds of thousands of people a year</STRONG> --
and without insurance it can’t survive.<BR> <BR>Insurance firms
are turning against fossil fuels, but progress is still too slow --
if even a fraction of the world’s planned coal mines get built it
could blow our chances of meeting global climate targets.</P>
<P>This moment could be a turning point -- <STRONG>If Munich Re
joins Swiss Re in clamping down on coal, the rest are sure to
follow</STRONG>. But they won’t move unless we push hard -- will you
help?</P>
<P><A style="COLOR: #00abbd; FONT-WEIGHT: bold"
href="https://act.sumofus.org/go/570835?t=2&akid=88297%2E15424008%2EnYHAi5">Yes,
I’ll tell Munich Re to stop insuring disaster</A></P>
<P>Taking on the world’s insurance giants is daunting, but no
mistake our pressure is working. Slowly but surely big insurers are
dropping coal -- and that’s all down to action from people like you.
Now it’s time to ramp up our efforts, and finish the job.</P><IMG
