Nurses and other health professionals are no strangers to the ways our overheating planet is wreaking havoc on our health. That's why RNAO and partnering health professionals are calling on the $112 billion Healthcare of Ontario Pension Plan (@HOOPPnow) to stop investing nurses’ retirement savings in companies that are making the #ClimateCrisis worse.
Op-ed by RNAO CEO @DorisGrinspun & @ActionShift Senior Manager Laura McGrath in @HealthyDebate: healthydebate.ca/2025/01/top…
📢Ontario health care workers: Let's make sure our pension fund, @HOOPPnow, gets the message and stops investing in oil, gas, coal and pipelines.

At COP28 countries launched the #COFFIS coalition to #StopFundingFossils
They had promised to release their fossil fuel subsidy inventories by COP29 & many did
But Canada missed the deadline
@cafreeland & @s_guilbeault: we need transparency - release the inventory now!

A Canadian pension plan invested $410 M this year in Encino Energy to frack Ohio wildlife areas.
98 percent of Encino is owned by @cppinvestments.
Why frack Ohio's beautiful public lands? They belong to us, not Canada. bit.ly/3Onf2hO

This just in: as #COP29 unfolds, 27 faith institutions just announced commitments to #divest from fossil fuels.
It's a moral imperative — AND financially responsible.

Teachers are rising up. Our pension plan, one of the largest pension plans in the world, invests in war crimes. We are refusing to be complicit.
@OTPPinfo : it's time to divest.
Take action alongside these teachers at worldbeyondwar.org/otpp

Today, if you open your copy of the @globeandmail you'll find a full page letter to Bay St from us. The headline: we're getting out of the oil & gas biz.
Why? ... 🧵 #ESG

@cppib has been urged by @ActionShift to up its climate ambition, following a surge of investment in fossil fuel assets. Comments from both here: esginvestor.net/cpp-investme…

Perfect placement by the Globe and Mail. Climate disasters are indeed brought to us by RBC and all others who continue to fund fossil fuel expansion while national treasures burn.

This is revealing.
Exxon's Imperial Oil for years has told investors that carbon capture is 'critical' for meeting Paris climate goals.
But after Canada passed an anti-greenwashing law, Imperial deleted those documents from its site.

We need a world we can actually retire into 🌎
This means us having more money and a healthy retirement in a cleaner, greener society 🌱
That's why we're working with @TheFinanceLab and @ShareAction to show how we can make this happen 👇

Pretty bad climate report card for BCI and BC Public Sector Pension Plans! Is a C- really the best we can do in a climate emergency? 🚨
Pension 💵 won’t mean much for if the world is on 🔥
9/ Despite its relatively robust approach to climate engagement, BCI has no #netzero target and no exclusions on investing in #fossilfuels... nor has BCI explained how its significant fossil fuel assets have credible net-zero pathways. #cdnpoli #bcpoli shiftaction.ca/reportcard202…

New report analyzed some of the world's largest pension funds for climate targets — many fell short.
As I told @CBC, the inconsistency in climate targets and plans shows the need for regulation to improve ambition & consistency. Great report @ActionShift.

Great report by @ActionShift on Canada’s pension funds and their progress towards climate commitments. Leaders (@LaCDPQ & UPP) and many Laggards. Let’s find ways to elevate the Laggards to increase climate emission reduction targets.

Thanks to @ActionShift for their very important work.
As 🇺🇸 takes a hard look at LNG, Canada's pension funds seem to be fueling the problem.
🇨🇦, we need to do a much better job of putting our money where our mouth is on #climate.
