In this webinar, participants will hear from Rob Goldberg, COO of Barnard College, Chris Ito, CEO of FFI, and Kathy Mulvey, Climate Accountability Campaign Manager at The Union of Concerned Scientists.

They will take a deeper dive in Barnard College’s process of evaluating the question of fossil fuel divestment and creating an innovative approach that focuses on fossil fuel companies that deny climate science or otherwise seek to thwart efforts to mitigate the impact of climate change. Barnard’s partners at the Union of Concerned Scientists and FFI will share how their research can help inform investors on which fossil fuel companies have been hindering climate policy.
