Our divestment team is the local arm of international 350.org’s divestment campaign. Our goal is to be informed about global divestment efforts and to use this information to persuade local governments, colleges and universities, foundations and other local not-for-profit organizations to drop fossil fuel investments from their portfolios.
We use various strategies: meeting with elected officials and boards of not-for-profit organizations, supporting college students and alumni who are organizing to encourage their schools to divest, circulating petitions requesting divestiture, and publicizing divestment opportunities and decisions.
