CitiGroup held its annual general meeting today under pressure from angry shareholders both inside and outside the meeting. Before it was over, Becky Tarbotton, the Global Finance Campaign Director of the Rainforest Action Network (RAN), had extracted an unexpected promise from Sir Win Bischoff, the chairman.

He promised to accompany her on a flight over Appalachia to witness the effects of Mountaintop Removal Mining, financed by his bank, or to send the CEO, Vikram Pandit, in his stead.
