![]() This week, millions of Americans have been living through the effects of climate change. Floods have destroyed much of Yellowstone National Park. Severe storms have battered Chicago, Madison and Milwaukee. Temperature records have been broken in California, Arizona, Nevada, Texas, and South Carolina. These extreme weather events are a reminder of how important it is that our banks treat the climate crisis like the emergency it is. In May 2021, the IEA, the world’s most respected energy modeler, announced that to have a fifty percent chance of limiting global warming to 1.5°C, there can be no new oil and gas fields developed. Yet, within three months of the IEA’s announcement, Citi, Chase, Bank of America, and Wells Fargo helped facilitate $36 billion in financing to the corporations most rapidly opening new oil and gas fields, including Exxon-Mobil, Aramco, and BP. We as customers have the power to change that. But to change it, we first need to understand just how our banks are trying to pull the wool over our eyes with their greenwashing.

WHERE: #2 Shelter at Walla Walla Point Park
whomever you think would appreciate being there.
Some ideas percolating are:
Farmers Markets – investigating insurance or other possibilities
MONEY – plenty of opportunities to work on divestment and getting the rich to pay their fair share in our state
Meeting up with our 12th district Representatives Steele on money,
climate concerns . . .
Also could meet up with Rep. Goehner on water, transportation . . .
what you think our 350Wenatchee group can work on.
Last week, President Biden announced that he would invoke the Defense Production Act (DPA) to pave the way for higher domestic production of clean energy technologies like solar, building insulation, heat pumps, fuel cells, and power grid infrastructure (like transformers).
This is a massive win!!! (Here’s Leah talking about just how big of a victory it is!)
We wanted to take this moment specifically to celebrate this win with you! You’ve earned it! If you’re feeling festive, click here to tweet a thank you to the White House for invoking the DPA on climate!
There is so much more work to come. Let’s Go Joe is still moving forward calling for executive actions on healthcare and student debt. We have our work cut out for us matching the ideals of this country with its reality. But, let’s enjoy this moment. We couldn’t have done it without one another.
Together, we are Indivisible.
In solidarity,
Indivisible Team
