<P>Hi,</P>
<P>Last week, 40 world leaders met for the Leaders Summit on Climate in a
two-day virtual conference.</P>
<P>With this rare meeting of world leaders to discuss the climate crisis, we saw
the opportunity to send them a bold message: <STRONG>stop funding fossil fuel
projects and get serious about climate justice.</STRONG></P>
<P>So our team went to the White House in Washington, D.C. to deliver over
300,000 signatures, <STRONG>including yours, to host of the Summit and US
President, Joe Biden. </STRONG></P>
<P>If you missed the virtual rally, you can <A

<P> </P>
<P>But despite some glimmers of hope, the outcome of the Summit is clear: world
leaders failed to deliver on climate justice. The biggest problem was their lack
of commitments to stop financing fossil fuel projects — one of the key areas
that can speed up the transition away from fossil fuel energy. <STRONG>It’s one
thing to make climate goals, but it’s another thing to keep on funding the
flames.</STRONG></P>
<P><STRONG>That’s why we need to keep turning up the pressure. If we truly want
to stop the planet from warming we need grand ambitions on a large
scale.</STRONG> We must focus on how the industry is financed. We need to stop
letting our money be used to support planet-destroying endeavors, and instead
radically invest in and build infrastructure for fair, just renewable
energy.</P>

a finance campaign near you and join people everywhere pushing banks, government
regulators, and politicians to stop financing fossil fuel projects.</A></P>
<P>As long as money continues to flow into new fossil fuel developments, we will
never have a chance at a just transition away from climate chaos. Let’s follow
the money.</P>
