Fossil fuel interests are now cynically using the war in Ukraine to try to lock in a high carbon future. A shift to renewables is crucial to mending our broken global energy mix & offering hope to millions suffering climate impacts today.

There's a 95% chance your local government council invests in fossil fuels. In the run up to COP it's time to change that. Join some of our online events at the Fossil Free Gathering to see what you can about divestment. From the 4th of October: divest.org.uk/gathering2021

Strong proposal from @EdwardJDavey, which includes the following: "In the longer term, pension funds would have to disinvest from fossil fuels by 2035, with all companies with fossil fuel assets removed from the exchange by 2045." theguardian.com/business/2021/…
