On Tuesday, dozens of Fossil Banks, No Thanks! campaign supporters from Japan to South Africa filled Twitter with photos as they sent messages to fossil banks outside branches, headquarters and even a sponsored sporting event. Twelve groups from nine countries targeted seventeen different banks, spreading the message far and wide: it's time for banks to stop financing fossil fuels!

Here is a selection of some of our favourite photos and tweets from the day. The whole brilliant bunch of photos can be found on Facebook here.
