MAKE YOUR ORGANISATION’S
MONEY MATTER
Across the world, businesses are ramping up their efforts to
cut their carbon footprint.
But, despite these steps, your organisation could be unintentionally funnelling billions into carbon intensive industries through your pension investments – directly contradicting your own values and sustainability strategies. We’re here to help you change that.
What's your financial footprint?
Pension Emissions
The carbon footprint of FTSE100 company pensions is 7x higher than their company emissions. Despite their climate commitments, UK businesses are unintentionally funnelling billions of pounds into carbon intensive industries through their pensions.
Fossil Fuels
UK pension schemes invest a staggering £88 billion in fossil fuel companies. That’s £3,000 per pension holder in businesses like Shell and BP. These oil and gas companies are continuing to expand operations and develop new fossil fuels, despite the science being clear this must end.
Deforestation
For every £10 you put in your pension, £2 is linked to deforestation. From timber to tobacco, mining to manufacturing, our pensions are propping up the businesses responsible for chopping down 10 million hectares of forests each year.
