Friday January 20, Noon-1:00 pm
100 E Broad St, Columbus, OH – outside Chase Tower/Chase Bank
Protest against Chase Bank funding of the fossil fuel industry
Third Act Ohio, a group of "experienced" Americans 60+ will demonstrate outside Chase Tower to raise public awareness about how Chase and other big banks are funding the climate chaos we have witnessed in extreme flooding, wildfires, and droughts since 2018.  Chase is by far the worst offender, having loaned $382B for fossil-fuel projects between 2016 and 2021.  The International Energy Agency—long an ally of oil, gas, and coal companies—about-faced last year:  it warned the world to cease all new fossil-fuel projects in 2021 to have any chance to reach carbon neutrality by 2050.  Third Actors will also be delivering letters to the bank's branch manager, and for delivery to Chase CEO Jamie Dimon.
