Are my savings funding climate breakdown?

H Hughes

Hello there, I am writing a magazine article about Irish banks' involvement in investing in fossil fuels and other environmentally harmful practices that directly contribute to climate change. From my reading and despite BOI's roadmap towards sustainability, it seems that BOI is still directly contributing to the climate crisis by using my money to invest in and support the fossil fuel industry. This is verified by independent websites such as bank.green. As information around this is lacking from BOI's website, I wanted to reach out and see if you could provide me with a more detailed overview of where exactly my money goes and how much of it is directly or indirectly funding harmful practices that contribute to climate change? Thanks, Holly
