Student minds are driving big change

Student body presidents from eight top US universities came together recently to endorse a statement on fossil fuel divestment drawn up by Harvard University's Undergraduate Council.

The statement calls on the Ivy League universities, widely regarded as the “most powerful and privileged institutions in the world”, to commit to “climate-conscious investments” and pull their investments in fossil fuel companies by 2025.
