7 | Germany / Austria / Switzerland / Lithuania / Latvia | Christian | Catholic Church | Jesuit Central European Province | Religious order | Full divestment | https://www.jesuiten.org/ | "Der Klimawandel bedroht unsere Umwelt und das Leben auf unserem Planeten. Besonders betroffen sind die ärmeren Menschen im Globalen Süden, die am wenigsten zu den Ursachen des Klimawandels beitragen und nur begrenzte Mittel haben, sich zu schützen. Wenn wir Jesuiten uns für die Bewahrung der Schöpfung einsetzen, sind wir gerade in Europa aufgerufen, Verantwortung zu übernehmen und an der Seite der Menschen in den stärker betroffenen Regionen zu stehen. Der Ausstieg aus der Unterstützung fossiler Energiegewinnung ist ein konkreter Beitrag dazu. Unsere finanziellen Investitionen, die wir beispielsweise für die Ausbildung und Altersvorsorge der Ordensmitglieder benötigen, folgen bereits ethischen Richtlinien. Diese werden wir nun verschärfen und konsequent aus allen fossilen Investitionen aussteigen. So leisten wir einen Beitrag zu einer lebenswerten Zukunft – für uns und kommende Generationen." P. Thomas Hollweck SJ, Provinzial der Jesuiten in Zentraleuropa | "Climate change threatens our environment and life on our planet. Those particularly affected are the poorer people in the Global South, who contribute least to the causes of climate change and have only limited means to protect themselves. When we Jesuits commit ourselves to the preservation of creation, we in Europe in particular are called upon to take responsibility and stand alongside the people in the regions that are most affected. Divesting from fossil fuel energy production is a concrete contribution to this. Our financial investments, which we need for the education and retirement provision of members of the order, for example, already follow ethical guidelines. We will now tighten these guidelines and consistently divest from all fossil fuel investments. In this way, we are contributing to a future worth living – for us and for coming generations."

Realtà già operative e pronte a raccogliere l’adesione dei privati cittadini e delle piccole e medie imprese. A queste CER si aggiungerà presto una settima comunità per la città di Cremona, sul medesimo modello organizzativo delle altre già costituite. "Nell’ultima conferenza stampa, in occasione dell’avvio del progetto di costituzione della CER “Città di Cremona” il vescovo di Cremona, mons. Antonio Napolioni, ha sottolineato «lo stile di partecipazione ecclesiale ai movimenti di cambiamento sociale ispirati alla ricerca del bene comune, secondo il magistero sociale della Chiesa. Ed in particolare della Laudato Sì». «La sfida ambientale e quella di una economia di solidarietà, la cura dei processi democratici e partecipativi – ha sottolineato il vescovo – sono questioni che non possono vederci distratti o disimpegnati, né ideologicamente divisi, perché è in gioco il futuro dell’umanità nella sua casa comune. Cremona può così ulteriormente onorare la sua tradizione di città a dimensione umana, ricca di esperienze solidali che alimentano la speranza»." Eugenio Bignardi, direttore dell'Ufficio Pastorale Sociale e Lavoro - Diocesi di Cremona | "Our commitment to divestment from fossil fuels, a fundamental choice for the energy transition, has also been reflected in extensive coordination efforts for the creation of Renewable Energy Communities, which parishes are promoting, along with municipalities, third-sector organizations, and foundations. To date, 72 organizations have been involved in the Renewable Energy Communities project, promoted by the Diocese of Cremona, thanks to the establishment, at the end of 2024, of six Renewable Energy Communities within the diocese in 27 municipalities in the provinces of Cremona, Bergamo, and Mantua. These organizations are already operational and ready to welcome the participation of private citizens and small and medium-sized businesses. A seventh community for the city of Cremona will soon be added to these Renewable Energy Communities, based on the same organizational model as those already established. At the latest press conference, on the occasion of the launch of the project to establish the "City of Cremona" Renewable Energy Community, the Bishop of Cremona, Bishop Antonio Napolioni, emphasized "the style of ecclesial participation in social change movements inspired by the pursuit of the common good, according to the social teaching of the Church, and in particular Laudato Si'. "The environmental challenge and that of a solidarity economy, the care for democratic and participatory processes," the bishop emphasized, "are issues that cannot keep us distracted or disengaged, nor ideologically divided, because the future of humanity in its common home is at stake. Cremona can thus further honor its tradition as a city in a human dimension, rich in experiences of solidarity that nourish hope.""

23 | 42 of the member institutions of the Arbeitskreis Kirchlicher Investoren (AKI) [1]: | "Die Mitglieder des AKI, zu denen alle Landeskirchen in Deutschland gehören, eint die Überzeugung, dass Geld anzulegen nicht bedeutet, Verantwortung abzulegen. Im Gegenteil: Indem sie Unternehmen ausschließen, die mit mehr als 5 Prozent Umsatz Kohle fördern sowie die unkonventionelle Förderung von Öl und Gas betreiben, übernehmen sie Verantwortung vor Gott und den Menschen dafür, was mit ihrem Geld geschieht. Kohle, Ölsand und Ölschiefer sind die fossilen Energieträger mit der schlechtesten Treibhausgas- und Umweltbilanz. Im AKI wird die Anwendung dieser Ausschlusskriterien ergänzt durch weitere Instrumente der ethisch-nachhaltigen Geldanlage wie die Bevorzugung von Unternehmen, die sich auf wissenschaftsbasierte Klimaziele verpflichtet haben. Wir wenden auch das gestaltende Instrument des Engagements an, also die aktive Einflussnahme von Investoren auf Anlageobjekte mit dem Ziel der Verbesserung des Klimamanagements von Unternehmen." Dr. Jörg Mayer, AKI-Vorsitzender | "The members of the AKI, which includes all regional churches in Germany, are united by the conviction that investing money does not mean abdicating responsibility. On the contrary: By excluding companies that derive more than 5 percent of their revenues from the extraction of coal or from unconventional oil and gas production, they assume responsibility before God and humanity for what happens to their money. Coal, oil sands and oil shale are the fossil fuels with the worst greenhouse gas and environmental footprints. At AKI, the application of these exclusion criteria is supplemented by other instruments of ethical and sustainable investment, such as preferential treatment of companies that have committed to science-based climate targets. We also apply the formative tool of engagement, i.e., the active influence of investors on investment projects with the aim of improving companies' climate management."
