"We are calling on our attorneys general to compel our schools to do the right thing and divest," said an organizer with @FossilFree5, a coalition of students urging @MIT, @Princeton, @Stanford, @VanderbiltU & @Yale to stop investing in fossil fuels. cdreams.news/3GWBzMe
“We’re done waiting for our institutions to take the threat of climate change seriously. Action must come now.” Check out this powerful op-Ed by our comrades at @DivestPrinceton about why we are asking our state AGs to investigate our university’s fossil fuel investments.

This morning, divestment campaigns at Yale, Princeton, MIT, Vanderbilt, and Stanford -— the Fossil Free 5 — filed legal complaints against fossil fuel investments. Join our fight by signing our complaint at bit.ly/YaleDivestNow and visit fossilfree5.org to learn more.

Yale is a $42 billion hedge fund with a university attached. It’s long past time Yale aligned its billions behind its rhetoric. Divest from fossil fuels!
Yale invests $15 million over 30 decades to “chip away” at climate change, and hundreds of millions in the fossil fuel industry to finance climate change and profit from the destruction of the planet. yaledailynews.com/blog/2022/02/0…
Hey friends! We have an ACTION that all Yale students, staff, faculty, and alumni can take now toward fossil fuel divestment: submit your input to Yale using this toolkit, created in collaboration by the Yale College Council and a working group of the EJC! docs.google.com/document/d/1FA…
Our universities are funding Line 3 and other fossil fuel projects that threaten Indigenous sovereignty, land, water, and the future of our climate. Join us TOMORROW, 4 PM ET at the Student Divestment Virtual Rally to #DefundLine3: tinyurl.com/DL3Student
USC will divest from fossil fuels! Congratulations to our friends at DivestSC - your organizing made this happen! Another win for climate justice, and for a future world beyond extractive capitalism. You can read DivestSC's statement here: drive.google.com/file/d/10aEoNy…

Great op-ed on how @Yale (sitting on a $31 billion endowment!!) is only planning to go carbon-neutral by . . . 2050. Slower than less wealthy schools and a generation too late. Time for a plan to rapidly decarbonize & create green jobs for New Haven! yaledailynews.com/blog/2020/11/0…
If Swensen is wondering what he can do to fight for racial justice he can listen to students who spent three days occupying Cross Campus and calling his office, and he can divest from climate imperialism and give struggling New Haveners access to some of Yale's untaxed billions!
It's time to start asking what the policies we want are, not just who we want making them. Swensen manages an endowment of $31b, and he has consistently chosen to invest that money in companies that burn the planet or exploit the victims of climate change. Divestment now!

Thank you to everyone who showed up or made calls over the last three days to demand Yale divest from fossil fuels, cancel its Puerto Rican debt, and reinvest in NH! Yale students have been incredibly clear: no more education funded by climate chaos. To @Yale , we’ll be back!
Join us today on cross campus for the last day of the Yale Endowment Justice Coalition’s occupation of cross campus! We are demanding Yale disclose and divest their holdings in fossil fuel companies, cancel Puerto Rican debt, and reinvest in New Haven!

This morning, divestment campaigns at Yale, Princeton, MIT, Vanderbilt, and Stanford -— the Fossil Free 5 — filed legal complaints against fossil fuel investments. Join our fight by signing our complaint at bit.ly/YaleDivestNow and visit fossilfree5.org to learn more.
Yale is a $42 billion hedge fund with a university attached. It’s long past time Yale aligned its billions behind its rhetoric. Divest from fossil fuels!
Yale invests $15 million over 30 decades to “chip away” at climate change, and hundreds of millions in the fossil fuel industry to finance climate change and profit from the destruction of the planet. yaledailynews.com/blog/2022/02/0…
So join us (links in the toolkit above) to be a part of the movement for endowment justice!
The endowment's founding logics of white supremacy & settler colonialism extend into the present. Transforming the endowment is ongoing, and we seek to continue the work of those before us, like the apartheid divestment organizers who pitched tents & occupied the Beinecke Plaza.
There is SO much to fight for beyond fossil fuel divestment. Yale's $32 billion endowment is invested in immigration detention centers, the prison industrial complex, nuclear weapons/arms, land mines, and recently profited from the sale of Baupost's holdings in Puerto Rican debt.
So, while we are not placing our hopes on the CFFIP, filling out their survey is one way to demonstrate community support for divestment - and to spread the word about this movement! Share the toolkit with your friends and organizations: docs.google.com/document/d/1FA…
The EJC has seen before that committees can function as a delay tactic, a way to address organizers' demands without taking action. When we have tried to contact the Yale Corp, we are redirected to the Advisory Committee on Investor Responsibility (ACIR), which serves the Corp.
The committee's Chair is Jonathan Macey, an alternative on the board of directors for a fossil fuel company - the Hess Corporation, which engages in production of crude oil and natural gas. This piece by Rose Horowitch & Emily Tian gives helpful context: yaledailynews.com/blog/2020/10/2…
Last fall, when we held a distanced occupation of Cross Campus, Yale announced the formation of the Committee for Fossil Fuel Investment Principles (CFFIP), charged with making recommendations to the corporation about fossil fuel investments.
Hey friends! We have an ACTION that all Yale students, staff, faculty, and alumni can take now toward fossil fuel divestment: submit your input to Yale using this toolkit, created in collaboration by the Yale College Council and a working group of the EJC! docs.google.com/document/d/1FA…
Learn more about the movement here: stopline3.org/#intro. And explore more ways to take action here: linktr.ee/stopline3. We can't wait to gather with you tomorrow!
At tomorrow's rally, we will be hearing from Tara Houska (Couchiching First Nation Anishinaabe), founder of the Giniw Collective and a frontline organizer in the years-long struggle to stop Enbridge's Line 3 pipeline! tiktok.com/@zhaabowekwe/v…
