Come to the City of London to help point them in the right direction. Wednesday 1 April 2009 is Financial Fools’ & Fossil Fools’ Day. People & Planet are calling a nationwide day of action to make the links between unaccountable financial power and its disasterous climate impacts. Focusing on RBS-NatWest, as part of the Ditch Dirty Development campaign, P&Pers will expose the bank’s foolish involvement in fossil fuel projects, and call for a just transition to renewable and sustainable energy sources. 1 April is a good time to mobilise for the AGM actions in London and Edinburgh.
RBS actions are part of broader activism on the G20. Organisations and networks across the UK and Europe including the Put People First coalition, Climate Camp and Rising Tide are all making links between the financial crisis and climate change.
