It’s ~ HORROR SEASON ~ 👻🎃! But what’s even scarier than Freddy Krueger is what @TD_Canada’s doing to frontline communities and to the planet through their fossil fuel funding. Let’s put an end to their shenanigans >> act.gp/3DxQQVA #FossilBanks @GreenpeaceCA

It’s great that Canada’s own @cathmckenna is leading the UN’s anti-greenwashing task force. First order of business: Canadian banks @rbc @scotiabank @TD_Canada @BMO @cibc not living up to their net zero commitments #FossilBanks act.gp/3ebMbyr @greenpeaceCA

I have the same concern about Canada's new Net-Zero Challenge (tinyurl.com/2p8pp6dy). Financial institutions have 2 years to produce a comprehensive net-zero plan. In the meantime, they get the halo-effect of signing up.
