I really encourage everyone to have a look at this grist.org piece: Cue the math: McKibben’s roadshow takes aim at Big Oil.
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. 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.
