The University of Toronto has now officially created a committee to consider fossil fuel divestment.
One of my big tasks in the weeks ahead will be to update the brief with everything important that has happened since it was opened for attestations last September.
From the date when they first meet, the committee will have a year to produce a recommendation. President Gertler will then make his own recommendation to the Governing Council, which in turn will make the final decision.

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. In the fall of 2005, I began reading for an M.Phil in IR at Wadham College, Oxford.
Outside school, I am very interested in photography, writing, and the outdoors. I am writing this blog to keep in touch with friends and family around the world, provide a more personal view of graduate student life in Oxford, and pass on some lessons I've learned here.

It is great to hear that your brief has made a strong impression and will be studied more closely. It has already made a big difference.
