Hosted by climate and energy experts from Shift Action for Pension Wealth and Planet Health, join working and retired teachers, healthcare workers, college and university staff and faculty, and municipal and provincial government employees from across B.C. to learn how you can take action on the climate crisis while protecting your pension savings.

• Explain why BCI's investment decisions matter for the climate crisis;
• Describe how your retirement savings are exposed to the financial risks of climate change;
• Provide a summary of the progress BCI is making in managing these risks, and an overview of its risky investments in fossil fuels and other high-carbon companies and infrastructure;
• Give you information about how to engage with your pension fund on climate.
