In 2023, the Move Beyond Coal movement had a major win. Together, we stopped a $1bn loan to Whitehaven Coal from Australian banks, including NAB. This win shows what people power can do in shifting financial institutions away from investing in thermal coal expansion.
In 2024, we have a big task ahead of us.
Whilst we've been successful in stopping Australian banks investing in Whitehaven Coal's expansion plans, we must now turn our attention to other, even less ethical investors, that are propping up Whitehaven Coal.
Whilst the rest of the Move Beyond Coal network are focused on stopping new coal and gas approvals at a political level, we are looking for a dedicated band of digital activists who want to tackle Whitehaven's finance- from potential Joint Venture Partners through to international banks and private investors.
