Break up with your Bank
Golden State Guiding wants to keep the momentum going regarding our campaign in 2020, Break up with your Bank! Quoting an article recently published regarding financial institutions funding the fossil fuel industry, Howard Fisher, CEO of Basso Capital Management had this to say “To put it simply, you’re either funding fossil fuel extraction or not. Big banks fund big oil, big oil funds lobbyists, lobbyists control policy and hold the key to environmental policy change.”
In the last 4 years a collective 35 banks throughout the world have contributed 2.7 trillion dollars to the fossil fuel industry, the top 5 donors being @chase, @wellsfargo, @citi, @bankofamerica, and @rbc. It’s important for everyone to understand who they are supporting through their financial institution choices.

Safe Climbing with Shelta Hats
If you're like us we're always in the outdoors! Whether it be climbing, backpacking, or just a casual day out on the trail we're constantly under the sun. We've partnered with the premium outdoor hat manufacturer Shelta to provide awareness regarding the harmful UVA/UVB rays our bodies absorb while participating in the activities we love so much. We've implemented an educational program to better inform our clients of these harmful rays and what we can do about them when we're in the field. We've got to admit, there's nothing like these hats in the market! Truly a one of a kind hat perfect for your outdoor needs. Learn more at sheltahats.com and support a sunblocking movement!
