Health orgs @docsforclimate.bsky.social @noharm.org take note: fossil fuel investments made by health institutions ACROSS THE US HEALTH SECTOR @nam.edu aren't "just" violating basic medical ethics. They are now legally challenged as a 👉🏾breech of fiduciary duty👈🏾

We're highlighting a groundbreaking class action lawsuit to hold the company accountable in court.” “A worker filed a precedent-setting lawsuit against one of the world's largest real estate corporations, alleging Cushman & Wakefield's retirement plan managers breached their duties by failing to protect workers' savings from climate-related financial risks.” Arrow icon pointing right in top right corner.

Retirement plans aren't abstract financial products; they're deferred wages, long-term security, and a reflection of how employers care for their people in uncertain times. When these critical savings are invested in underperforming fossil fuel companies and climate exposed real estate, employees shoulder risks they never knowingly agreed to.” Arrow icon pointing right in top right corner.

Gray text box with “The Kvek vs. Cushman & Wakefield class action lawsuit in U.S. District Court Western District of Washington, is the first-ever legal challenge on 401(k) managers for ignoring climate financial risk, alleging that such oversight violates their fiduciary duties. We are supportive of this lawsuit and have been working for several decades to educate and activate both public and private sector workers about risks to their pensions and retirement funds.” Arrow icon pointing right in top right corner.

Background photo of a flaring oil refinery. Red text box with “It's not just Cushman & Wakefield. Instead of safeguarding its workers' futures, companies across the United States are funneling retirement savings into risky funds packed with underperforming fossil fuel companies or high-risk businesses like real estate, that can be severely damaged by the impacts of climate change-fueled extreme weather. No matter who you are or how you vote, your retirement should be secure, and this new landmark lawsuit is arguing just that. Retirement savings should be managed to protect working people, not to bankroll polluters or enrich billionaires.” Arrow icon pointing right in top right corner.

BREAKING: One of the world’s largest real estate corporations, Cushman & Wakefield, is risking its workers’ retirement funds by investing in climate-risky funds.

How Natural Disasters Affect Oil & Gas Pipelines The wrath of Hurricane Ida last month illustrated once again how natural disasters can affect oil and gas pipelines.

Good point.

#WindGetsTheWinterGold

Offshore wind showed up big during the East Coast’s brutal cold America’s two utility-scale offshore wind farms performed as well as gas power plants and better than coal in January — including during Winter Storm Fern.

How did wind power do during this winter's cold wave in the US Northeast?

A very important reference on reliability👇🏾
