Join us in the campaign to switch £100 million away from fossil fuels and into investments that make a positive impact

The average pension pot is £50,000. What happens if that £50,000 is switched out of fossil fuel companies. The shares that are held in those companies are sold.


The selling of those shares will have minimal or no effect on those fossil fuel companies and another investor will immediately buy those shares replacing the £50,000.

So if £50,000 won’t change the pensions world will a £100 million?

When large numbers of pension investors move their money away from fossil fuels that starts to have an effect. Demand for shares and bonds in fossil fuels falls.


This then puts financial pressure on these companies. If enough investors become unwilling to own or finance fossil fuel businesses capital becomes more expensive and the cost of borrowing goes up.

“Joanna's extensive experience made what had always seemed like a complicated subject feel remarkably simple and achievable.”

  • “ I'm now genuinely excited about my pensions because they are in my control aligned with my values and working towards my retirement goals.”

“Joanna is friendly, honest, committed, enthusiastic and knowledgeable about green pensions.”

  • She assessed the greenness of my current pension and, with a little research, was able to indicate that I could do much better.
    Using her deep knowledge of available investments and their structure, helped by ongoing relationships with green fund managers, alternative, much more suitable, green investments were recommended.
    Possibly of most importance was her realistic view of the financial performance of green funds when compared with non-green. Buying into or continuing to hold non-green funds is not ethical.
    I would recommend a chat with Joanna to anyone wishing to encourage companies to build a sustainable future."
