"L’encyclique Laudato Si', et plus récemment Laudate Deum, nous ont rappelé l’importance de mettre nos actes en cohérence avec notre Foi. Au diocèse de Grenoble-Vienne, parmi d’autres actions, nous avons désinvesti des énergies fossiles sur tous nos titres en direct et nous sommes en permanence attentifs pour désinvestir au fur et à mesure des produits structurés qui sont positionnés en partie sur ces énergies fossiles."

Ayant fait le lien entre, la consommation d'énergies fossiles, les dérèglements climatiques et sociaux et tout particulièrement l'impact sur les personnes les plus pauvres, nous nous engageons désormais résolument à désinvestir des énergies fossiles d'ici 5 ans. Par ce geste, nous souhaitons nous mettre en cohérence avec notre foi et également inviter chacun à se questionner sur ses finances, cela fait partie de notre chemin de conversion à tous."

IrelandChristianCatholic ChurchDiocese of Down and ConnorDioceseFull divestment"Each year, from September to October, the Christian family globally unites in a celebration of prayer and action to care for and protect our common home. Approaching the end of this ‘Season of Creation’, the Diocese of Down and Connor makes a commitment to fully divest from fossil fuels as a tangible expression of ecological solidarity and a concrete response to the Cry of the Earth.

"Pope Francis prophetically reminds us that the path to change begins with a single step. In his Letter to the children of the world (2024), Pope Francis stated that ‘Our world will change if we all begin…without being ashamed to take small steps, one at a time’. This is particularly true when responding to the environmental crisis facing the world. Each of us can and should play a responsible role in making the necessary changes to live in a more sustainable and ecologically friendly manner.

"It is evident that investments in fossil-related funds cause great harm to the environment and adversely impact upon the poorest and most vulnerable within society. Therefore, the Diocese of Down and Connor commits to fully divest from fossil fuel companies.

"This decision and commitment marks a symbolic shift in divestment from fossil fuels to investment in caring for the environment, to investment in sustainable living, to investment in the children of the future."


Most Revd Alan McGuckian SJ, Bishop of Down and Connor

ItalyChristianCatholic ChurchChristian Associations of Italian Workers (Associazioni Cristiane Lavoratori Italiani (ACLI))Lay organizationFull divestment"L'energia da combustibili fossili costituisce una delle principali fonti di inquinamento del nostro Pianeta: sono infatti i maggiori responsabili nelle emissioni di gas serra. L’utilizzo dei combustibili fossili ha un notevole impatto quindi sull'ambiente e sul cambiamento climatico in atto ed è necessario ridurne la dipendenza potenziando forme di approvvigionamento più sostenibili. Nell’ottica di una vera transizione energetica, servono provvedimenti urgenti che privilegino l'adozione di forme di energie rinnovabili (solare, eolica e idroelettrico) in sostituzione di quelle fossili.
"L'obiettivo deve essere quello di migliorare l'efficienza energetica da fonti rinnovabili in tutti i campi:
· nell’edilizia: con l’efficientamento dei condomini e l’installazione di pannelli fotovoltaici);
· nella viabilità: con la diffusione di veicoli elettrici o ibridi);
· nei processi industriali.

"Solo con l'adozione di nuove tecnologie e pratiche sostenibili potremo salvaguardare il nostro Pianeta, mitigare gli effetti del cambiamento climatico e continuare a produrre l'energia di cui abbiamo bisogno.
"Per questo come ACLI siamo sostenitori di ogni azione che possa sostenere il processo di transizione energetica anche attraverso le azioni volte a incentivare il disinvestimento dalle fonti fossili."

Emiliano Manfredonia, Presidente nazionale delle Acli
