Ireland will be the first country to divest from all fossil fuels after all-party support in a Parliamentary vote

The €8bn national investment fund must sell all its >€350 milion investments in coal, oil, gas & peat “as soon as is practicable”, expected to mean within 5 years.

This is another very significant milestone in the remorseless advance of the divestment movement. I feel happy for all the many campaigners involved today.
