- Divestment stigmatizes the fossil fuel industry — it takes away from their immense political influence and paves the way for climate legislation.
- Harvard is now confronted with an historic opportunity to take a stand on climate change, and Harvard should stand on the right side of history.
- If it's wrong to wreck the planet, then it's certainly wrong for Harvard to invest in the wreckage.
- Over 65,000 climate activists from across the country are calling on the Harvard Corporation to pull its investments in the fossil fuel industry.
- Open and public dialogue must be a central part of any university. Your students have asked to meet with you, and they deserve that opportunity.
