Manchester urged to ditch fossil-fuel pensions
'According to the Fossil Free Greater Manchester group, the region has ‘the largest and dirtiest’ public sector pension fund in the country with approx £1 billion invested in fossil fuels.'
Local Quakers in the north of England are supporting a campaign to persuade the Greater Manchester Pension Fund (GMPF) to ditch investments in fossil fuel companies.
