*WHY:* As you probably know, the City of Somerville is currently
invested in the fossil fuel industry. While Somerville works to lower
its own emissions and take other measures to address climate change as a
city, we are funding companies that spend billions of dollars funding
climate change denial and lobbying against common sense efforts needed
to reduce emissions. Not only that, our fossil fuel investments are
almost certainly losing money

The campaign to divest Somerville from the fossil fuel industry has made
a lot of progress over the last couple of years. We can win this fight,
but *we need YOUR help* to get it over the line. Come out and show your
support for fossil fuel divestment in Somerville!
More details will be forthcoming. Save the date!
