ANZ is fuelling climate chaos

Australia’s dirtiest bank has invested $17,675,650,000 USD in fossil fuel projects.

ANZ claims to be taking action on climate change, but are one of the biggest lenders to fossil fuels in Australia.

ANZ has committed to achieving net zero by 2050, which means there can be no new investments in fossil fuels according to the International Energy Agency (IEA). Despite this, they have loaned $952 million to Whitehaven Coal, New Hope, Woodside and Santos – some of Australia’s most notorious polluters.

Keeping warming below 1.5 degrees means no more fossil fuel investments for ANZ.

We call on CEO Shayne Elliot and the ANZ board to bank on our future and end fossil fuel financing now.

ANZ must end oil and gas lending and commit to ending fossil fuels.
