Divestment delayed

Under pressure from Germany, the European Investment Bank delayed its decision on providing no further fossil fuels loans until November.

Alex Doukas from the NGO Oil Change International had this to say about that:

“This delay is a direct result of Germany and the European commission pushing to add more fossil fuels back into the policy. This is the opposite of the leadership demanded by millions of climate strikers and activists around the world”.

Messy.
