Chase
Not to be outdone by all these other companies getting green kudos, Chase joined in the fun in 2019, with a tweet bragging about its paperless card services. “Celebrate #EarthDay by saving a tree. 🌳” the tweet reads. (Trees again!!!) “Over 16K+ trees are saved annually through paperless enrollment.”
Again, trees are cool! But conveniently, this post leaves out the fact that parent company JPMorgan Chase is one of the top funders of fossil fuel projects around the world, investing billions in oil, gas and coal in 2021—even after making net-zero promises. Makes those thousands of trees seem like chump change.
