Anti Mountaintop Removal Actions on various "PNC Alliance Schools"

PNC Bank, one of the leading financiers of companies that practice mountaintop removal, will be recruiting new account holders during freshman week on colleges and universities across their footprint. Earth Quaker Action Team is organizing student groups to leaflet students about PNC's connection to this practice before they open their accounts. If you would like to get involved or know someone on any of the campuses listed on PNC's website who might like to organize a simple action, EQAT has materials and is eager to offer support.

Contact Walter Hjelt Sullivan, EQAT program director at GreenPNC@gmail.com for more information.
