There is speculation and discussion that fossil fuel divestment, driven
by either social investing concerns or market forces,
may drive large investment funds (e.g., pension funds) back into
investing in tobacco stocks.

Looks to me like a strategy where we increase the quality of the air you
breath, but make it harder for you to breath :-( !
