To Bank of Queensland, I believe in protecting and improving our natural environment and as a customer, I expect the same from the bank that has custody of my money. The expansion of the fossil fuel industry in Australia is threatening our land and water resources, people’s health and parts of our natural environment, including iconic sites such as the Great Barrier Reef. Furthermore, the world is at a point where we need to rapidly transition away from polluting fossil fuels to clean, renewable energy if we are to avoid runaway climate change. Any new loans to coal and gas companies and projects represent a massive risk to our prospects of keeping global warming to within manageable limits and delay the necessary action required. Thousands of customers have been leaving banks because of their heavy investment in the fossil fuel sector, and moving to banks that are not supporting these environmentally damaging projects. I may soon join them. I want you to unequivocally rule out future loans to coal and gas exploration, production, transport and export projects. I want you to make this commitment directly to me, as well as publicly. If you do not make this commitment, I will be forced to close my account with you and take my money to a bank that won't use it to finance the expansion of the fossil fuel industry, climate change and environmental destruction. I look forward to hearing back from you very soon. Sincerely,
Yes, I want to hear more from Market Forces about this campaign
