FWCC makes green commitment

FWCC announces divestment from fossil fuel companies

by Tara Craig 9th October 2015

Friends World Committee for Consultation (FWCC) has announced its divestment from fossil fuel companies.

The announcement follows a decision made in June 2015 by the organisation’s Central Executive Committee. This was prompted by FWCC’s 2012 ‘Kabarak Call for Peace and Eco-justice’, which recognised the dangers of climate change and its effect on famine, migrations and war. FWCC pledged to act to reduce the organisation’s climate impact.
