[📊Report] The 60 largest banks are exposed to $1.35tn in fossil fuel assets whose value will drop in the transition to #netzero.
If we treated them as 'higher risk' under #Basel3, the banks' capital increase would take 3-5 months of retained profits without reducing lending
1/9

Using the annual reports of 60 of the world biggest banks, we have estimated their exposures to fossil fuel assets - indisputably #StrandedAssets. We found levels similar to the 2008 banks exposures to #subprime mortgages. The threat of a #fossilsubprimes crisis is a reality
2/9

Until bank capital rules reflect it, this risk will increasingly threaten financial stability, leaving taxpayers exposed to shouldering new bailouts. Fossil fuel assets should be treated as “higher risk” and assigned a risk weight of 150% in line with the #BaselFramework.

Our new report: 'Unburnable #Carbon - 10 Years On' finds global stock markets 🏦 are financing energy companies which are sitting on 3x more #coal, #oil & #gas reserves than can be burned without breaking the 1.5°C Paris climate target carbontracker.org/reports/uburna… #CarbonBubble

🧵Despite growing urgency to tackle #ClimateChange, 'Unburnable #Carbon' reveals “embedded #emissions” in the #FossilFuel🛢️reserves of companies listed on stock exchanges – the CO2 released if they’re extracted & burned – has grown by nearly 40% since 2012 carbontracker.org/reports/uburna…

@CarolineLucas @EdwardJDavey @Ed_Miliband @MichaelEMann @CFigueres @AnnPettifor @billmckibben @martinwolf_ @AlokSharma_RDG The report warns that 90% of all known #FossilFuel🛢️reserves & resources held by companies must stay in the ground as 'unburnable #carbon' to limit global warming to 1.5°C🌡️🛑carbontracker.org/reports/uburna… #KeepItInTheGround

@antonioguterres

Australia was just singled out as a climate "holdout" by UN secretary General @antonioguterres . It's rare to see him single a country out like this. What does he mean? 🧵⬇️

👏 Many G20 developed economies have announced meaningful #emissionsreduction targets for 2030.
👎 Not Australia. Scott Morrison still took Tony Abbott's 26-28% emissions target to COP26. This targets is 6 years old.

🥵The COP26 conference was focussed on improved 2030 targets and a rapid phaseout of coal (by 2030). Australia refused, making us a loner among developed countries & a "holdout" on climate.

1/ In one corner of the #COP26 forest, we launched a joint statement committing signatories to end international public #fossilfuelfinance by the Dec 2022 and to prioritise $ for the #cleanenergytransition.
ukcop26.org/statement-on-i…

2/ This should shift $24bn that has been going into international public support and subsidy for fossil fuels into clean energy. Critically, this will leverage and redirect many $billions more in private finance, delivering clean power to markets around the world...

3/ It's an #inclusive agenda. It’s not just rich nations, but also emerging economies - signalling they want cheap clean power, and to create jobs & investment and avoid #strandedassets. #Gabon #Zambia #Gambia #SouthSudan #Ethiopia #Fiji #MarshallIslands #SriLanka #ElSalvador...

On Thursday, the @EIB board (Member States, @EU_Commission) decides whether funding #gas infrastructure is still in the public interest.

I shuffled through the extraordinary amount of voices saying "no, we've got better things to fund" and put them in this THREAD.

Economist Prof. @CKemfert clearly tells us that we're setting us up for another badly managed transition with #strandedassets if we use public funding for #fossilfuels as renewables and efficiency will undercut the market for gas. euractiv.de/section/energi… @OlafScholz

@Suncorp

Sara Parrott @Suncorp #climatechange is an existential threat to the insurance industry. Suncorp will not underwite thermal coal projects from 2025. $39 billion in assets they can invest in for a better future #strandedassets #sustainablefinance #wftebrisbane

Moving from fear of #climatechange and concern over backlash or sticking your neck out, to seeing it as a strategic risk, giving staff permission to engage can create massive organisational cultural shift. Suncorp started on its journey only 2-3 yrs ago #wftebrisbane

.@NeridaBradley Corporate Australia is changing, recognising it needs to embrace change and supporting individuals to drive this change #wftebrisbane
