Educators, activists, and clients demand TIAA stop financing climate destruction. With $78B in fossil fuels, land grabs, and harmful agribusiness, TIAA harms the planet and exploits BIPOC communities. https://linktr.ee/tiaadivest #GreenSky #Divest

Have you seen TIAA’s latest greenwashing effort? They invest $78 billion in fossil fuels, furthering the climate crisis, but educate their customers on “protecting their finances from natural disasters.” Moreover, fossil fuels are volatile…

It’s ironic, and arguably hypocritical, that TIAA warns clients about volatility and disaster risk, while simultaneously fueling the causes of both through massive fossil fuel investments. #TIAADivest

TIAA-Divest! stands with all who are speaking out against injustice. As basic rights to freedom of speech and assembly come under intensifying threat from authoritarians and oligarchs, we oppose the crackdown on student organizers, educators, and grassroots leaders who dare to raise their voices..

This is climate change.

This is what happens when fossil fuel companies pump pollution into our environment with FULL KNOWLEDGE that they would cause unnatural disasters like this dangerous heat dome — directly harming the health of both people and planet.

Hollywood actors to SAG retirement fund: drop fossil fuels!
YouTube video by Stand.earth Hollywood actors to SAG retirement fund: drop fossil fuels!

Big Oil is in 99% of retirement plans — and they’ve been losing us all a lot of money.

Getting out of #BigOil is one of the most impactful climate actions you can take.

We’re asking the SAG-Producers Pension Plan managers to stop investing $100M+ in Big Oil.

If TIAA is going to pretend to hold an election & continue to hand out millions of dollars to board whose members approve of massive fossil fuel investments & displacing indigenous communities to build their land portfolio, then we need to change tactics. That’s why WE’RE STAGING A HOSTILE TAKEOVER!

Environmental protest during Cornell graduation cut short by university police Activists blindfolded the statue of Cornell founder A.D White and hung banners, then shared the footage and photos globally through social media.

This could not have happened without direction from Cornell's leaders! Are you as outraged as we are?

We are outraged that Cornell activists have been banned from campus for peacefully protesting Cornell’s climate inaction and we demand that Cornell’s President immediately reverse the ban and apologize to those impacted as well as to the larger Cornell community. 2/2

Climate activists were banned from Cornell after a demonstration. They say it's an escalation Activists from the climate justice group Cornell on Fire say similar protests have occurred in the past without disciplinary action.

TIAA-Divest! campaign has worked in solidarity with the climate campaign at Cornell, and especially with Cornell On Fire for many years. We had expected that Cornell would rise above the repressive tactics being deployed across US educational institutions to silence dissent not embrace intimidation.
