This past Tuesday Rainforest Action Network (RAN) stepped out of the forest and into the city of Charlotte, NC to let Bank of America know that their business plans are intolerable and are continuing to destroy this planet. RAN activists scaled a crane right outside of Bank of Americas headquarters and dropped a banner reading: "Bank of America: Funding Coal, Killing Communities."
America's largest bank is also one of the top financiers of coal, which is a major contributor to Global Warming.
This is why I do some online volunteering/promotions for RAN. They go straight to 'the bank' when it comes to stopping the plight of our environment. Rather then going after the individual coal companies, RAN figures to hit 'em where it hurts; their wallet.
Check out RANs new campaign to get Bank of America to stop funding 'mountain-top removal' coal mining and prevent them from funding the construction of new coal fueled power plants.
