As shocking as it sounds, during the 7 years following the Paris Agreement (a legally binding international treaty on fighting climate change), the world’s top 60 private-sector banks pumped $5.5 trillion into fossil fuels. We have to send a message to them that it’s not what we want. Changing your bank or changing your pensions is really simple using tools such as Bank.Green

That’s why we’re challenging you to take on our 5k AND pledge to change banks or move your pension – and we’ll plant 10 trees for you!

The pledge is a challenge, we don’t require any evidence, however we suggest you tell your friends you’re doing it for accountability and you can help be a part of the change and raise awareness for the planet. Use the hashtag #EarthRunsPledge and let us know how your challenge is going!

Your seeded medal, if you’ve ordered one, will be sent within 7 working days of your event deadline by 2nd class post.
