Help us make 2024 the strongest year to date for fossil fuel divestment!
As the climate crisis becomes more severe, many Coloradans are still unaware of the role that our banks, cities, insurance companies, and pension funds play in financing and perpetuating climate destruction through loans, investments, and bond holdings in fossil fuel companies.
Through movement and coalition building, research, legislation & policy advocacy and peaceful direct action, we are working to make Colorado a leader in defunding the climate crisis!
Our key campaign successes this year include:
Fossil Free PERA
We helped to pass legislation in 2023 which requires insurance companies and CO PERA to disclose their climate risk
We worked with Boulder County to release a 2023 Corporate Knights Report, showing that PERA lost $2.7 billion by not divesting from fossil fuels
We released a report which showed that PERA voted against 61% of Environmental, Social, and Governance resolutions in the companies they invest in
Local Government Divestment
We partnered with Boulder County to release a Local Divestment Roadmap, for city and county governments across the US to learn how to divest from fossil fuels
University Divestment
We supported student-led university divestment campaigns at CU, CSU, and DU, including hosting nonviolent direct action, media, public comment, and art trainings for student organizers.
National Divestment Coalitions & Mobilization
We partnered with Third Act, Third Act Labor, and Rainforest Action Network for a national 3/21 Banks Day of Action
We participated in the September Wave of Climate Actions in NYC
We co-organized a 10/1 Insurance Leadership Forum Rally with Rainforest Action Network
With your support, we can do so much more together in 2024!
