The grass is greener and the skies are bluer on the other side of the fence! I will no longer post on X and have created a convenient starter pack of fossil fuel finance campaign accounts which you can follow when you make the leap.

If 'careful consideration' results in the support of a 1500 mw gas power plant in one of the world's most corrupt and repressive countries, which is exporting electricity at that, you wonder whether the Swiss government pays any attention to climate change. .

Swiss Export Risk Insurance (SERV) is now insuring one gas-fired power plant in Turkmenistan. Contractor Calik Enerji Swiss AG in Lucerne and the company General Electric Global Parts & Products in canton Aargau are set to benefit from the project.

Replacing their aging workforce is one of the big challenges of the insurance industry. Fossil fuel insurers will find it difficult to attract young talent and their HR staff should support the #InsureOurFuture demands!
