"The heirs to the fabled Rockefeller oil fortune withdrew their funds from fossil fuel investments on Monday, lending a symbolic boost to a $50bn divestment campaign ahead of a United Nations summit on climate change.

The former vice-president, Al Gore, will present the divestment commitments to world leaders, making the case that investments in oil and coal have an uncertain future.

With Monday?s announcement, more than 800 global investors ? including foundations such as the Rockefeller Brothers, religious groups, healthcare organisations, cities and universities ? have pledged to withdraw a total of $50bn from fossil fuel investments over the next five years.
