The University of Cambridge aims to divest from all direct and indirect investments in fossil fuels by 2030, as part of our plan to cut greenhouse gas emissions to zero by 2038: bit.ly/3igdCDz@cisl_cambridge #CambridgeDivests #NetZero2038 #CambridgeZero
BREAKING: @UniCambridge to #divest from fossil fuels by 2030, and cut its emissions to net zero by 2038
This is very welcome
OK, it would be even better if the dates were sooner, but this is very significant
The pace of #netzero investing is really stepping up, with leading UK funds setting targets for the 2030s

This 'sounds' good. But 2030 and 2038 are a long time in the future. We need cuts now! Also, the devil is in the details as @UofCalifornia experience shows. Institutions can SAY they are going fossil free, but until full transparency we just don't know.
The #RacetoZero is on! @Cambridge_Uni aims for a net zero greenhouse gas emissions across its entire investment portfolio by 2038, in-line with its broader targets for cutting emissions. #ClimateAction @CambridgeZero
