What does your pension fund have to do with the destruction of the rainforests? | Greenpeace Switzerland

What does your pension fund have to do with the destruction of the rainforests?

Swiss pension funds hold at least CHF 60 billion in companies that are driving the destruction of rainforests. The destruction of the rainforests is fatal for the global climate and biodiversity and represents an existential threat to mankind. Hundreds of global companies are driving this deforestation.

Swiss pension funds hold at least CHF 60 billion in companies that are driving the destruction of rainforests. The destruction of the rainforests is fatal for the global climate and biodiversity and represents an existential threat to humanity.
Hundreds of global companies are driving this deforestation. They do this with their production processes, supply chains, products and services. It is all the more paradoxical that our pension funds are also contributing to the destruction of our future livelihoods with our retirement money.

Sign our appeal to the pension funds now and ask them to:
create transparency about their sustainability by the end of the year and commit to an effective sustainability strategy by 2023. #Pensions4Future
