This podcast introduces 350.org’s fossil fuel divestment campaign.
In the podcast May Boeve talks about the link between climate change and fossil fuel investments, and the moral and economic argument for divesting from fossil fuels.
The fossil fuel divestment movement exists to demonstrate that if it’s wrong to cause climate change, it’s wrong to profit from it. It seeks to divest banks, pension funds, endowments, and beyond from oil, coal, and gas. The impact is now measured not only in the tens of trillions divested globally, but also in the growth of the fossil free investment products industry; the thousands of leaders trained as divestment organizers; and the diminished social license of the fossil fuel industry.
