Divestment in Place
Thursday, April 23, 7 p.m.

So you want to do something about climate change, but you are stuck at home. No problem! Now is the perfect time to sit down at your computer and figure out how you can help stop the flow of your money supporting fossil fuel. 

Join 350Brattleboro on Thursday, April 23rd at 7 p.m. for an informational Zoom meeting with banking and investment experts. The discussion will cover cash and capital. That is, where to find a checking account or credit card as well as where to invest. The event was originally planned for the library. Now it will be a Zoom on-line meeting sponsored by 350Brattleboro, Brooks Memorial Library and All Souls Church SEAC Committee. This event is free, but a simple registration is required. 

Climate destruction is underwritten by banks, asset managers and insurance companies. This Earth Day, switch your bank account, credit card, or retirement account to an institution that will use your money for good. Gofossilfree.org estimates that more than 1,000 institutions and 58,000 individuals have pulled trillions of dollars out of fossil fuels.
