Bank regulation may sound dry and technical, but it's actually a powerful tool in the fight against climate change!
Canada's 5 big banks are the top financiers of oil and gas, and they've proven time and again that they won't regulate themselves to meet climate targets without outside pressure.
That's why we need our government to pass strong rules to bring banks in line with climate science as soon as possible. And we need your help.
Join us for an info-session with Julie Segal, Climate Finance Senior Manager at Environmental Defence, to learn more about bank regulation and why it's a crucial part of the fight to stop fossil fuel funding. You don't need any finance knowledge to get involved -- you just have to be a parent, grandparent or caregiver who cares.
This session will cover:
The link between finance and climate change
Why we need bank regulation
Current solutions (i.e. the Climate-Aligned Finance Act)
Actions you can take to support the campaign for better regulation
