Our work
Our vision is a future where institutions invest with a high degree of respect for the environment, utilising our money to deliver solutions to major environmental issues, and where the community holds to account the custodians of their money to ensure it is used to benefit the environment.
Our work exposes the institutions that are financing environmentally destructive projects and helps people to hold these institutions accountable. We work with the community to prevent investment in projects that would harm the environment and drive global warming.
