Thanks for calling BlackRock!

Here is an example of how a conversation could start (or you can just wing it!):

Hello, I’m [your name], from [town/city/country], and I'm calling to ask BlackRock to stop financially supporting Adani's disastrous coal mine in Australia.

BlackRock is the biggest financial investor in Adani and last year, BlackRock said Adani must “be held accountable” for the environmental risks posed by its Carmichael coal mine.

I care about this because...

• The Traditional Owners of the land Adani is mining, the Wangan and Jagalingou people, do not give their consent. The mine is threatening one of the biggest collections of culturally significant artifacts.

• Adani has started shipping coal out via the Great Barrier Reef which just suffered another mass coral bleaching event. If all of the coal that Adani wants to mine is burnt, it’s game over for the Great Barrier Reef .
  
  

• Coal ships navigating through the world's most extensive coral reef ecosystem is risky, and the Adani Group is already responsible for a coal ship sinking off the coast of Mumbai that devastated marine life.

• Climate action must ramp up this decade in order to prevent the catastrophic impacts of climate change. That means no new fossil fuel projects like Adani's coal mine (which would be one of the biggest in the world!)

  
  

  Thanks for your time.
