Taking Our Faith to the Streets: Just Transition from Fossil Fuels to Climate Justice

In the spirit of compassion and action, people of faith are called to answer the Earth’s cry for care in this climate emergency.  On Monday, October 26 from noon to 12:45 pm the Interfaith Coalition for Earth Justice and its members across Southern California will hold a Vigil to call on Wells Fargo Bank to end their investment in fossil fuel projects and support a just transition to 100% renewables. 

• Immediately end their investment in fossil fuel projects
• Immediately invest in 100% renewables and a fair phase-out of current fossil fuel production
• Immediately act to invest in companies that provide a just transition for impacted workers and climate-vulnerable communities

This action is part of GreenFaith’s Faiths 4 Climate Justice campaign and is projected to be the first in a series of actions at Wells Fargo. We act in solidarity with GreenFaith’s global actions, October 4 to November 6, leading up to COP 27, the UN Climate Conference.

Time is running out for any significant impact on global climate disruption. Our faith demands that we ask: if not now, when? If not us, who?

We will gather at Wells Fargo Plaza 401 B St., San Diego.  A press conference will be held at 11:30 before the Vigil at 12 noon. For more information, contact Diane Lopez Hughes at dianelopezhughes@me.com
