National Day of Action: Chase, STOP funding MTR!
Loading...
Uploaded by tanyabernicetheday on Oct 30, 2009
JP Morgan Chase Bank is one of the last remaining, and largest, financiers of coal fired power plants and Mountain Top Removal mining. It is this continued support for coal companies that motivated students and youth from all over Kentucky to rally in front of downtown Lexingtons Chase bank today at 1pm. The action aimed to send a strong message to Chase bank to halt their support of Mountain Top Removal and raise awareness for the devastation in Appalachia caused by the very companies the bank loans to. JP Morgan Chase Banks current endorsement of coal companies stands in stark contrast with CEO Jamie Dimons promise to walk the talk on energy issues.
We cant stand by as mountain top removal keeps being made possible by Chase bank, raising awareness for the issue is the first step in banning it said TERRA member Casey Price. Participants insisted that Mountain Top Removal mining is at the helm of the environmental and human rights issues facing Appalachia, and until the cessation of all financial support upholding the dirty energy industry is demanded, well continue to be plagued by dirty energy.
