350CO organized an action to take place at Chase Bank in downtown Denver for August 9, 2024 to protest the bank’s investments in and loans to Fossil Fuel Companies. Chase is one of the main banks that invests in fossil fuel.
Third Act Colorado sponsored it as part of the Third Act National’s “Summer of Heat” actions around the country, and Greenfaith Boulder County Circle also joined as a sponsor for the event.
About 25 people came with banners, signs and a polar bear head we took turns wearing. Third Act had a rocky chair for the “old Third Actors” who were part of the protest. It was a successful action on a hot day!
