GOOD BANKING

Align your money with your values.

 

Centralized banks are the main funders of environmentally harmful industries such as nuclear, coal, and clear cutting logging companies. They are also responsible for the most recent economic collapse that caused people around the world to lose their homes, their jobs, and their retirements. They use customer’s deposits to make these destructive loans. Are these the projects you want to keep supporting with your deposits? If not, then pull your money out of centralized banks and find a community bank or credit union that invests in good local community projects.

SUPPORT LOCAL BANKS AND BUILDING SOCIETIES WITH AN ETHICAL POLICY LIKE COOPERATIVE BANK (WHICH ALSO SUPPORTS THE POST OFFICE) TRIODOS AND THE CHARITY BANK.

Since the Ethical Policy was introduced in 1992, The Co-operative Bank has withheld over £1billion of funding from business activities that its customers say are unethical.

Unethical is such as dealing in weapons and the arms trade, nuclear and coal, animal testing, GMO, human rights issues and the list goes on. Each bank has its own policy. Large banks lend to anyone for whatever which means you are funding destructive practices without knowing.

Move your money and support that which you believe in -  a fair and just world for all.
