2018 is going great for the fossil free movement! Yesterday the universities of Sussex AND Edinburgh announced full divestments.
University of Edinburgh announced it will move its entire £322million investment portfolio out of the fossil fuel industry over the next three years. That's £6.3million it currently holds in fossil fuels companies including Total.
They have the 3rd largest university endowment in the UK and become the biggest full divestment so far!
