Mike Malloy - The Clinton Foundation Is Taking Money From Fossil Fuels Sector



Citing big-dollar donations from three fossil fuel giants—Chevron, Conoco Philips, and Exxon—a leading climate justice group is calling on the Clinton Foundation and the Clinton Global Initiative to stop investing in or accepting money from the industry that's driving the global climate crisis.

"Taking money from and investing in the fossil fuel industry poses a challenge to all of the good work the Clinton Foundation is doing around climate, health, and poverty," said May Boeve, a spokesperson for 350 Action, which is the political advocacy arm of 350.org.

"This is an opportunity for the Clinton Foundation to prove themselves as climate leaders," she added, "and join the movement in taking back our systems from the stranglehold of the fossil fuel industry."
