Rutgers to divest from fossil fuel industry

© istock Rutgers University is set to divest from fossil fuels after heavy lobbying from students and the union representing faculty and staff. David Hughes, the treasurer and former president of Rutgers AAUP-AFT, said in a statement that the vote by the school’s board of governors and board of trustees follows more than seven years of activism. In addition to the years-long divestment campaign, about 700 students, faculty and residents of New Brunswick, N.J., took to the streets as part of the 2019 Global Climate Strike. Ninety percent of students voted to support divestment in a referendum in fall 2020. That December, the union’s executive council passed a resolution that called on the school to “immediately begin selling all its holdings in firms that extract, produce, refine, sell, store, or transport oil, gas, or coal.”

Why Republicans Are Terrified Of The Green New Deal

Author and environmentalist Naomi Klein argued in a New York Timescolumn Sunday that Republicans rushed to attack the Green New Deal as disaster struck in Texas because the popular push for a sweeping transformation of the U.S. energy system poses a genuine threat to the deregulated, fossil-fuel dependent status quo that left the Lone Star State vulnerable to extreme weather driven by the climate crisis. Texans are living through the collapse of a 40-year experiment in free-market fundamentalism, one that has also stood in the way of effective climate action, Klein wrote. Fortunately, there s a way out and that s precisely what Republican politicians in the state most fear.
