The Federal Reserve Chair, Chairman Powell, announced that the Federal Reserve System will “stick to its knitting” and not be a “climate policymaker.” Yet the Board of the US Federal Reserve System — the referee of the US economy — is supposed to protect the U.S. economy from financial risk, including climate change.
The Fed has asked for public input on their recommendations for protecting our economy from the climate crisis, and we need to make sure they hear our demands loud and clear.
We want to thank everyone who has already emailed the Fed with their comments on this! We’re now calling on you to flood them with faxes to demand that they take immediate steps to promote investment in the transition to a clean, just, renewable economy.
