  • NGOs Criticise World Bank Over Climate Change Funds

    Environmentalists protest to the United Nations climate conference in an attempt to keep the World Bank from controlling climate change finance.

    Environmentalists have protested outside the main entrance to the United Nations climate conference in Poznan in an attempt to keep the World Bank from controlling climate change finance.

    International Finance Campaigner Karen Orenstein with Friends of the Earth US says: "The World Bank is not a credible institution to play any role in addressing the climate crisis. Its Climate Investment Funds are irreparably flawed and should be shut down."
