HSBC and the Foundation for Environmental Education have announced a global programme, backed by a financial commitment from HSBC of US$2.5 million over three years, to teach five- to 18-year-olds about protecting the environment through FEE's Eco-Schools International Programme.

The HSBC Eco-Schools Climate Initiative will involve HSBC employees, initially in 11 countries, who will volunteer time to help schools address a variety of environmental themes ranging from energy, transport and waste to water and biodiversity in relation to climate change. This programme builds on HSBC's longstanding commitment to environmental education. The countries benefitting from this programme are Brazil, China, Ireland, Japan, Jordan, Malta, Russia, Slovakia, South Africa, the UK and the US.
