  • Effective Strategies for Driving Fossil Fuel Divestment
    1. Build a strong coalition of supporters.

    * This includes environmental organizations, faith groups, labor unions, student groups, and others.

    * The more diverse and broad the coalition, the more effective it will be.

    2. Develop a clear and concise message.

    * What are the goals of the divestment movement?

    * Why is it important to divest from fossil fuels?

    * Make sure your message is easy to understand and communicate.

    3. Target specific institutions.

    * Which institutions are the most invested in fossil fuels?

    * Which institutions have the most to lose if they divest?

    * Focus your efforts on these institutions and make them the face of the divestment movement.

    4. Use a variety of tactics.

    * In addition to traditional forms of protest, such as rallies and marches, use creative tactics to get your message across.

    * This could include things like social media campaigns, art installations, and flash mobs.

    5. Be persistent.

    * The divestment movement is a long-term struggle and there will be setbacks along the way.

    * Don't get discouraged. Keep up the pressure and eventually, you will win.

    6. Tell the stories of the people and communities who are most affected by fossil fuels.

    * Divestment is not just about divesting money from fossil fuels, it is also about investing in the future.

    * Tell the stories of the people who are disproportionately affected by climate change: small island states, indigenous communities, and marginalized communities.

    * Show how divestment can help to build a more just and sustainable future for these communities.
