FutureCoal urges global finance to fund coal responsibly

# Global alliance for sustainable coal, FutureCoal, is calling on banks, insurers, and investors to fund coal fairly and responsibly. Chairperson Mike Teke says coal remains a vital energy source, supporting industries, jobs, and economic growth, especially in regions with limited alternatives. Teke urged financial institutions to back coal under FutureCoal’s sustainable coal stewardship framework, which promotes low-emission and advanced technologies, while ensuring coal works alongside renewables for long-term energy security.
