Join Labor Network for Sustainability, Democratic Socialists of America, and 350.org for a webinar on the future of state and city divestment campaigns and the rationale and arguments for moving investments out of fossil fuels and into climate solutions.
Nearly 1000 institutions, with a combined asset value of over $7.1 trillion have committed to divest in some form from fossil fuels. This includes some of the world’s largest and most influential cities such as New York City, London, Washington DC, Paris, and Berlin. With fossil fuel stocks becoming increasingly financially risky, funds are divesting while continuing to meet their fiduciary responsibilities to their pensioners and retirees. Many are investing billions in climate solutions that will accelerate the just transition to a better future.
The webinar, will also discuss strategies to advance divestment in your city and state pension and union funds. RSVP and you will receive a Zoom link a few days before the webinar.
