Ask the University of Delaware's Board of Trustees to DIVEST from Fossil Fuel Corporations!
With fossil fuel corporations banking on exploiting 5 times the amount of carbon considered safe to burn without exceeding a 2-degree C global temperature increase (see http://math.350.org/ ), universities should not be investing in their business plans for wrecking the planet! Ask the University of Delaware's Board of Trustees to DIVEST from Fossil Fuel Corporations!
Why is this important?
My name is Rick McCorkle, and I'm a University of Delaware Alumnus (M.S. in Applied Ocean Science, Class of 2001) and professional fish and wildlife biologist. With fossil fuel corporations banking on exploiting 5 times the amount of carbon considered safe to burn without exceeding a 2-degree C global temperature increase (see http://math.350.org/ ), universities should not be investing in their business plans for wrecking the planet! Please join me in asking the University of Delaware's Board of Trustees to DIVEST from Fossil Fuel Corporations.
