FINANCING DESTRUCTION

Or  how to stop the flow of trillions to new coal,oil and gas

Julien Vincent won the 2022 Goldman Environmental Prize as founder of Market Forces.

We interview him and his colleague Pablo Brait to tell the Market Forces story of divestment and shareholder action. 

In Queensland, Coedi McEvoy up on Wangan and Jagalingou territory right opposite Adan's Carmichael coal Mine urges would be investors not to destroy his cultural heritage.

In Sydney, we hear how a schoolboy, Chris Black, engaged with a Banking summit inside the Hilton Hotel. He told the head of National Australia Bank his story of bushfire flood and cyclone. His generation live in fear of a future being ruined by more investment in coal, oil and gas as it turbocharges climate chaos. This was livestreamed to the Financial Review audience but only we were outside to hear his moving letter  read by  Jean Hinchcliff ( Young Author of Lead the Way)

In London the AGM of Shell Oil is disrupted by shareholders from Extinction Rebellion. We hear about the human rights and environmental destruction in the Niger Delta by Shell. Plus how financing more oil leads to unlivable wet bulb temperatures in Singapore and parts of SE Asia.
