Tell JPMorgan Chase: defund hazardous pipelines

Kathleen- Your help can stop big banks from funding environmental destruction. Tell JPMorgan Chase to defund pipeline projects! In cities across the country today, Summer of Resistance activists are engaged in peaceful protest at JPMorgan Chase locations, demanding that the bank stop funding dirty tar sands pipelines, like Keystone XL. By making your voice heard now, you can stand with these activists against KXL and other tar sands pipelines that threaten human health, human rights, our climate and communities. Demand that JPMorgan Chase pull their funding from pipeline projects — sign the petition. We've reached our goal of getting 50,000 signatures on our petition to JPMorgan Chase, calling on the bank to stop funding the expansion of tar sands pipelines and environmental destruction. But I know we can rally more people to take a stand. So, we've upped our goal to 75,000 signatures. And there's an important signature we don't have yet — yours! Please add your name to the petition now! Last week JPMorgan Chase's CEO Jamie Dimon and many others agreed to disband Trump's Strategic and Policy Forum in disagreement with Trump's reaction to Charlottesville. While Dimon might not be on Trump's council anymore, he's still doing Trump's bidding by funding destructive tar sands pipelines. As the sixth-largest bank in the world — and one that publicly supported the Paris Climate Agreement1 — JPMorgan Chase and Dimon have a responsibility to cut ties to this climate and human rights disaster, keep their word on Indigenous rights, and be consistent with the moral stand Dimon took last week. Tell JPMorgan Chase and Jamie Dimon we will hold them accountable and demand that they cut ties to the tar sands oil pipelines. Our efforts in pressuring big banks to pull their funding from pipelines is working. For example, ING formally announced it will not be financing tar sands oil pipeline projects, including Keystone XL, after it received a letter sent by 20 Indigenous and environmental groups asking the bank to refrain from financing Kinder Morgan's Trans Mountain pipeline. It's clear that large banks are beginning to be wary of the risks associated with dirty tar sands oil — we must keep raising our voices. Please help us reach our goal of 75,000 signatures and keep up the pressure on JPMorgan Chase. Thank you, Diana Best Senior Climate and Energy Campaigner, Greenpeace USA P.S. Cutting off funding for pipelines is one of the most effective ways we can stop the fossil fuel industry from violating human rights and invading, drilling, and polluting in our communities. We cannot afford to fail. Please take a stand and add your name to our petition to JPMorgan Chase today. [1] http://bteam.org/announcements/30-major-ceos-call-on-trump-stay-in-paris/
