Bankwatch joins NGO boycott of COP19

Today, Bankwatch joined other organisations walking out of Warsaw Climate Conference. Under the Polish government’s leadership the talks have utterly failed to address the urgency of the situation. Targets have been unambitious, the interests of the fossil fuel industry have been allowed to dominate the discussions, and there is no new financing on the table for climate mitigation and adaptation. This conference has lost credibility in the fight against climate change.
