Check out this entertaining, yet powerful, video directed by Raine Allen Miller, where Oscar winner Olivia Colman, alias ‘Oblivia Coalmine,’ sarcastically thanks viewers for unwittingly contributing to fossil fuel industries through their pension funds, fueling a lucrative year. The campaign, by Make My Money Matter seeks to raise awareness about the detrimental ties between UK pensions and the climate crisis, urging pension schemes to divest from companies driving fossil fuel expansion. Founded by filmmaker and activist Richard Curtis, the campaign empowers savers to align their money with values for a better world. Curtis jokingly added: “I’ve seen some dark, dystopian characters in my career, and that doesn’t even include Hugh Grant in Love Actually. But I think Oblivia Coalmine is right up there with the worst.” Want to clean up your banking, insurance and pension/super?

The Academy Award-winner Olivia Coleman stars as ‘Oblivia Coalmine,’ a power-hungry Big Oil CEO, in the latest campaign for Richard Curtis-backed Make My Money Matter. The campaign, founded by filmmaker and activist Richard Curtis, aims to highlight how pensions, investments, and savings can be funding climate change. New public polling by Opinium shows that such investments are not just bad for the planet – but they are also unpopular with savers. Just 19% of UK pension holders support their scheme investing in oil and gas, compared with two-thirds (66%) who support their pension investing in renewables. https://lnkd.in/eACDbfTn
