In 2021, the Banking on Climate Chaos report investigated the deeply entangled links between the worlds of finance and dirty energy. It found that JPMorgan Chase, Citi, Wells Fargo, and Bank of America are the four worst banking institutions when it comes to funding the climate crisis, through their massive investments in fossil fuels.
Since 2016, 35 banks have poured $2.7 trillion into fossil fuels., according to a report. These big banks have also failed to respond to the climate crisis. The report also mentions that Chase in particular has dumped over a quarter trillion dollars into fossil fuels in the last four years alone.

We must hold these companies accountable for their substantial role in climate change.
