This Massive Canadian Bank Is Funding a Poisonous Pipeline That Will Rip Through Indigenous Lands and Precious Wildlife Habitat

Vladimir,

 

Coastal GasLink is currently constructing yet another massive, 416-mile pipeline, and the Royal Bank of Canada is funding it. The proposed pipeline will cut through Wet'suwet'en land without approval from hereditary chiefs, and just like all other pipelines, is nearly guaranteed to leak eventually. On top of that, the Arctic and Antarctic just reported temperatures seventy degrees above average because of global warming. But apparently the Royal Bank of Canada doesn't care about climate destruction or environmental justice.

 

As Indigenous activists around the world have pointed out, native people are fighting on the front lines of climate change, in part because corporations threaten their sovereignty so often with these absurd, unjust projects. The Wet'suwet'en people have been vocal in their opposition to this pipeline, fighting hard to protect their own rights and the environment, wildlife, air, soil, and water that they so deeply respect and rely on. We must join them in this fight and put pressure on the Royal Bank of Canada to demonstrate that they care about the sovereignty of native people and the future of the earth. No banks will even exist if the planet literally becomes uninhabitable. Sign now to tell the Royal Bank of Canada: divest from this gas pipeline project now!

P.S. There is no reason we should be building more toxic fossil fuel infrastructure, and especially on Indigenous lands. Royal Bank of Canada must halt funding for the Coastal GasLink pipeline. Sign the petition.
