DESCRIPTION:Protest Citigroup Thursday at Noon!\n               by gatito • Wednesday 
 April 24, 2002 at 04:56 PM\n\n                    Citigroup, number one 
 funder of the fossil fuel industry and the world's biggest global warmer\n  
                   makes its profits at the expense of the planet and its 
 inhabitants Protest at noon tomorrow\n                    (Thursday April 
 25th ) at 590 Market Street. Protest Citigroup, the world's most 
 destructive\n                    bank! \n\n               Stop the World's 
 most destructive bank! Refuse to do business with Citigroup! Refuse to let 
 \n               Citi use your money to fund global warming and global \n   
             forest destruction. Recently, Dutch bank \n               ABN 
 AMRO’s decision to cease funding for \n               extractive 
 industries within pristine forests \n               set a global standard 
 that banks must finally take \n               responsibility for profiting 
 from destruction. \n\n               Mass species extinction, \n            
    rising sea levels, and the spread of diseases are the \n               
 result of global warming stemming from our deadly \n               fossil 
 fuel addiction. As the \n               largest financial institution in 
 the world and the #1 \n               financier of fossil fuel projects, 
 Citi determines \n               what projects get funding and what do not. 
 As a \n               financial \n               powerhouse, the world’s 
 largest bank must take \n               responsibility for its actions. 
 Citi must stop \n               profiting from this deadly industry and 
 begin financing \n               clean alternatives, such as solar and 
 wind. As the \n               race for remaining fossil fuel reserves 
 becomes more \n               heated, \n               Citi has turned its 
 investments to the Amazon, fueling \n               an oil boom in pristine 
 rainforest ecosystems and on \n               sacred indigenous lands. \n\n 
               Citi’s destruction can be traced from redlining and \n      
          predatory lending, indebting people of color in our \n             
   inner cities, to participating in the OCP / Ecuador \n               
 pipeline where activists have put their bodies on the \n               line 
 to save their treasured forests. From Citigroup’s \n               
 partnership with Enron in the contested Dabhol power \n               plant 
 in India to profiting from global warming, \n               Citigroup lives 
 up to its reputation as the World’s \n               Most Destructive 
 Bank. On Earth Day, send a strong \n               message that now is the 
 time to REFUSE Citi, and tell \n               them“Not with My Money!”
