Tomorrow is a big day:

“…the board of the EU’s European Investment Bank – the largest public bank in the world – meets to decide whether the time has finally come to stop expanding the fossil fuel sector.”

As Bill McKibben rightly points out in his lovely prose:

“The first rule of holes is, when you’re in one, stop digging.”

In related news, here’s a fun fact from yesterday’s Guardian article on investment banks:

“The world’s largest investment banks have provided more than $700bn of financing for the fossil fuel companies most aggressively expanding in new coal, oil and gas projects since the Paris climate change agreement, figures show.”

The second rule of holes is, screw you, you namby-pamby environmentalists! Dig baby dig!
