"$hift" is a short documentary aimed to mobilize people to join the divestment movement that is sweeping the nation, exposing divestment from the fossil fuel industry as a practical solution for creating the systemic change that is necessary to sustain a livable planet.

Brought to you by Jamie Oliveira, Jennifer Fong, Seth Hahn and Nicole Blunt in cooperation with the Health Equity Institute at San Francisco State University.

The film focuses on the divestment movement lead by Fossil Free SFSU, and includes activists from 350.org, 350 SF Bay Area, Fossil Free SF and others from the Go Fossil Free movement.

"$hift" is one of four short student films showing at the Coppola Theatre in the Fine Arts building (FA 101) at San Francisco State Univerity.  This event is FREE.  We hope you join us for an exciting evening.

Bike the Math 5/29

Join us on May 29th to Bike the Math from Dublin/Pleasanton BART (8am) to Chevron Headquarters in San Ramon. Let's tell Chevron to stop fueling climate chaos and become a renewable energy company!

For updates, join our Bike the Math Facebook Event Page

It’s simple math: if we burn more than 565 gigatons of carbon dioxide, the planet will heat up more than 3.5°F. Even this increase will have profound effects — anything more risks catastrophe for life on earth. Fossil fuel corporations already have more than five times this amount in their reserves. And they’re planning to burn it all and continue to look for more — unless we stop them.

CO2 + $$$ = Overheating Planet!

Pedal the Message to Chevron: Change Your Fossil-Foolish Ways!
