The energy transition necessitated by climate change is wreaking havoc on the value of fossil fuel assets.
Our mission is to pass legislation to divest Illinois public pension funds from fossil fuels.
Who we are
Climate Safe Pensions Illinois is a statewide coalition of organizations advocating for fossil fuel divestment in Illinois.
Divestment is a global movement
Over 1,600 public, private, and non-profit institutions across the planet have already divested. Collectively those institutions represent an approximate value of over $40 trillion.
Help us pass the
Fossil Fuel
Divestment Act
