It discusses the strategy 350.org is planning to employ in the months ahead, with an emphasis on encouraging universities to divest from fossil fuels. Humanity’s future depends on us rapidly phasing out fossil fuels and moving to zero-carbon alternatives. As institutions that are meant to serve the public good, universities should be investing in a way that is compatible with that imperative.

In the spring of 2005, I graduated from the University of British Columbia with a degree in International Relations and a general focus in the area of environmental politics. Between 2005 and 2007 I completed an M.Phil in IR at Wadham College, Oxford. I worked for five years for the Canadian federal government, including completing the Accelerated Economist Training Program, and then completed a PhD in Political Science at the University of Toronto in 2023.
