Climate actions
Steps this helps you take.
Choosing a sustainable bank means that your money is doing good and supports the causes you care about while you are asleep. Legacy banks use your money to finance planetary destruction by lending money to evil industries like the fossil fuel, meat and dairy, or weapon industry. Sustainable banks only invest in industries that make the planet and our societies thrive. They invest in renewable energy and other impact industries. Switching your bank is one of the most impactful and easiest climate actions available, that most people don't have on their radar.
Investing in green funds directs your capital towards sustainable initiatives, such as renewable energy projects and eco-friendly businesses, fostering innovation and driving positive environmental change.
Money is one of the biggest and most effective levers individuals have. Unfortunately money especially from insurances and banks is still used to fund harmful industries like deforestation (big meat) and the fossil fuel industry. The good news is, there are sustainable providers and once you did the switch you don't have to think about it anymore.
