$3.4 trillion divested in fossil fuels by 500+ institutions - 350.org


Divesting from fossil fuels and the power it has over our governments is now unstoppable. In the lead up to the Paris climate talks, so far the divestment has totaled a staggering $3.4 trillion. And counting.... 
The divestment movement has been gathering pace and building momentum ahead of the climate summit in Paris, where we announced today that more than 500 institutions representing over $3.4 trillion in assets have made some form of divestment commitment. 

On 21st September, we were at 400 institutions representing $2.6 trillion under management. In the past ten weeks, more than 100 institutions made new commitments to divest from fossil fuels. change.org
