Sign our petition and get involved
Dear Members of the Harvard Corporation, Provost Garber, and Climate Provost Stock,
We are proud of Harvard's commitment to divest its endowment from the fossil fuel industry, but to show real leadership in the climate crisis, Harvard must go further. As Harvard alumni, we urge you to follow the recommendations laid out in the paper “A Fossil Fuel-Free Harvard.” To maintain academic integrity, Harvard must:
Ban fossil fuel funding and collaboration in research
Strengthen and enforce conflict-of-interest disclosure policies
Convene a panel to design and implement these policies
Signed,
Our white paper has been endorsed by groups including:
Coalition for a True Sustainability School (Stanford University)
