The Fossil Free movement aims to accelerate the transition to a 100% renewable energy society (Rooftop Solar), leave fossil fuels in the ground. No to any new coal, oil or gas plant and to convince institutions, pension funds and the stock market to divest from companies that promote the exploitation of fossil fuels. With this new recognition, WWF Southern Switzerland has joined the global Fossil Free movement.
