we are proud to stand with FFDH alumni in their call to #divest from FF research funds at #Harvard ✊
Harvard faculty agree: It’s time to divest the research agenda from the pervasive influence of the fossil fuel industry. Our alumni branch is proud to have @FacultyDivest’s endorsement for their white paper calling for a ban on research funding from the fossil fuel industry.

Harvard's own @NaomiOreskes on MSNBC discussing what #ExxonKnew about climate change in the 1970s!🧐
#ExxonKnew, and Exxon lied.
.@NaomiOreskes, who co-authored the first peer reviewed analysis of fossil fuel industry climate modeling, on @KatyTurNBC discussing just how much #ExxonKnew about future climate change before executives waged a campaign to misinform the public.

Fossil fuel companies like @Shell continue to profit from climate chaos, whilst hiding behind misleading carbon offset projects that deepen injustices against people most vulnerable to the climate crisis.

could #Harvard be next? ✊
Princeton now marks the 3rd school to move towards fossil fuel divestment after students launched a legal complaint against fossil fuel holdings.
