    MMMM is creating a movement calling for the trillions of pounds invested in UK pensions to build a better world. They do this through clever and engaging campaigns, aimed at individuals, organizations and the government, raising awareness of how pension funds are invested in lots of extractive and destructive industries and encouraging people to consider how they could be spent on much better things such as social housing, wind farms or reforestation to name but a few.
