Philanthropy has a climate emergency problem.

And here's the thing:

We can't ask grantees to solve the crisis if our investments are fueling it. If philanthropy owns stock in fossil fuels, we own climate change.

A thread on why that really matters.👇 Wallace Global Fund has supported the movement for fossil fuel divestment since its inception. We’ve worked directly with advocates, activists, organizations, and the broader philanthropic community to get fossil fuels out of all of our investments. We started 10 years ago.
