Activists from this team have a long history of encouraging individuals to move their money out of banks that support the fossil fuel industry, and were pivotal in getting local municipalities and colleges to divest. Our friends at DivestEd (part of the Stop the Money Pipeline coalition) support college divestment around the country. Divestment efforts include:
- Personal Divestment
