Category - Divestment

We protested outside a big pensions conference to tell pensions fund managers to face the climate risk.

Looking back at what the divestment campaign has been doing this year.

We’re campaigning for workplace pensions to be free from fossil fuels.

£2 billion from council pension funds in Scotland is invested in fossil fuel companies, including some of the world’s worst polluters.

2022 has been an exciting year for our campaign to call on Scottish councils and MSPs to end their pension fund investments in fossil fuels. 

A look back at this year’s Fossil Free Gathering – a weekend of talks, workshops and discussions about divestment and climate justice.

As long as our banks, pensions and institutions continue to invest in fossil fuels, we are banking our future on their success – in COP26, but also in our national and local governments.

Campaigners are urging councillors to agree on strong climate standards and a clear divestment timeline.
