It's time the #BoycottTMobile for supporting authoritarianism.

Why are we calling for a #BoycottTMobile?
They’ve lobbied to pass Trump’s Big Bill, launched Trump Mobile on their network, partnered with far-right fascist Elon Musk’s Starlink, and their union busting is disgusting.

T-Mobile loves to say it’s a “force for good.” But here’s the truth ⬇️

👉 T-Mobile is siding with Trump.
👉 T-Mobile is putting profits over people.
👉 T-Mobile is helping fund Elon Musk’s empire through its T-Satellite program.

New @reclaimfinance.org report reveals that banks finance fossil fuels more than double❗️ the amount for energy transition.

Read more in the first edition of the Banking on Business as Usual report: reclaimfinance.org/site/en/bank...

Banking On Business As Usual - Reclaim Finance

Between 2021 and 2024, the 65 biggest banks globally allocated to fossil fuels more than twice the amount of money allocated to sustainable power supply.

📢 We are urging banks to reduce financing for fossil fuels, end all support for fossil fuel expansion, and to rapidly increase financing for sustainable alternatives by setting financial targets, robust sectoral policies, and enabling a ratio of at least 6:1 to be achieved by 2030.

Full report ⤵️

➡️ This ratio shows that banks cannot claim to be backing the energy transition while still financing business as usual.
They must at the same time step away from fossil fuels and increase their financing for sustainable alternatives.

🌍 NOWHERE are banks on track:

- At the bottom of the ranking, US (0.25:1) banks provide 4x more finance for fossil fuels than for sustainable alternatives

- Japanese (0.35:1) and Chinese banks (0.52:1) do slightly better

- European banks have the ‘least bad’ ratio (0.70:1)

The financing ratio is 0.42:1 : for each dollar allocated to fossil fuels, just 42 cents went to sustainable alternatives.

This falls far below the needs identified in the IEA #NZE projections: fossil investments must drop 60% by 2030, while green funding must more than double to reach 6:1.

The biggest 65 banks are NOT on track when it comes to financing the energy transition:

Between 2021 and 2024, just US$1,368 billion was allocated to sustainable power (such as solar, wind, and related infrastructure), while US$3,285 billion was allocated to fossil fuels
