FEATURE PROJECT: THE P2 PROJECT: PENSIONS + PLANET

The P2 Project supports climate scientists internationally in their efforts, both individually and collectively, to engage constructively with pension funds on the risks and opportunities presented by the climate crisis. The project is contributing to a fundamental shift in pension fund investment practices that will help move the world closer to sustainability while at the same time protecting pension benefits.
