Wells Fargo funds oil, coal, logging, mining operations.

by Robyn E.

Did you know that Wells Fargo, one of America’s largest banks, is a top financier of destructive oil, coal, logging, and mining operations that contribute to global warming, ecosystem destruction, and human rights abuses?

The corrupt power of their finances funds organizations that have worked to rollback forest, endangered species and clean water protections devastating eco-systems and communities from Alaska to Appalachia. Take action: http://go.care2.com/e/R2CH/A8L4/EQvM

Wells Fargo funds and supports:
  • Logging in Alaska’s Tongass National Forest.
  • Drilling in the desert and mountain landscapes of America’s West.
  • Coal companies using mountaintop removal, a brutal strip mining process that is literally exploding the tops off of mountains in Appalachia.
Other US banks, like Citigroup, JP Morgan Chase and Goldman Sachs, have taken a more responsible approach. Yet, Wells Fargo still does not have a comprehensive environmental and social policy.

They have no excuse! It's time Wells Fargo took responsibility for the destructive impact of its investments and charted a new course toward justice and sustainability. Sign this petition telling Wells Fargo to get their act together!
