Lucie Pinson
Environmental Strategist | Transforming Finance to Combat Climate Change
About
When global financial institutions seemed immovable, Lucie Pinson discovered a powerful lever for environmental change: strategic financial advocacy. As a pioneering financial responsibility campaigner, she targets the critical intersection between banking policies and fossil fuel expansion.
By systematically negotiating with banks and insurers, Pinson has emerged as a key architect in developing exit strategies for coal, oil, and gas investments. Her work represents a sophisticated approach to climate action, focusing not just on environmental activism, but on redesigning the economic infrastructure that sustains carbon-intensive industries.

How to stop banks from investing in fossil fuels
Money is pollution's biggest driving force -- particularly, the cash invested in dirty energy projects, says financial responsibility campaigner Lucie Pinson. She shares a three-pronged approach to stop banks from funding fossil fuel companies, including what she calls "collaborative blackmailing" (it's more ethical than it sounds). By demanding more accountability from polluting companies and encouraging ethical banking, Pinson shows how to cut off the problem at its source.
