Fossil Free London says JP Morgan has been a major source of funding for fossil fuel projects since the Paris Agreement, when governments agreed to try to limit global average temperature rises to 1. 5C above pre-industrial levels.
One campaigner said: " They are making billions of profit every year at a time of worsening inequality when so much of The World is being devastated by the climate crisis.
