Defund Line 3 - Global Day of Action

San Francisco

May 7, 2021

 

A beautiful creative action in San Francisco to demand that financial institutions stop funding the destruction of the planet and our future. This was part of a Global Day of Action to Stop Line 3 oil pipeline.

 

From the organizers:

"For years, Indigenous communities and allies have been opposing the construction of the Line 3 pipeline, which would transport nearly one million barrels of dirty tar sands oil - every single day. Enbridge Energy, the company building the pipeline, has a terrible environmental track record, and this pipeline would violate several treaties with indigenous communities.

 

Indigenous-led water protectors and allies in Minnesota are taking action every day to stop the construction of Enbridge's Line 3 pipeline - confronting bulldozers, decision-makers, and the politicians that are putting profit before people. Pipelines take billions of dollars to build - and banks like JP Morgan Chase, Wells Fargo, Citibank, Bank of America, TD Ameritrade, Union Bank - as well as insurers like Liberty Mutual - are bankrolling Line 3."

 

Event organized and endorsed by: Oil and Gas Action Network | Extinction Rebellion SF Bay | Diablo Rising Tide | East Point Peace Academy | Silicon Valley Climate Action Now | Fossil Free California | 350 Bay Area | 1000 Grandmothers for Future Generations | Idle No More SF Bay | Code Pink SF Bay Area | Women’s Earth and Climate Action Network (WECAN) International
