BREAKING: Harvard and MIT students just shut down an @exxonmobil campus recruiting event.

Because when it comes to a business model reliant on destruction of our futures, enough is enough.

divestharvard.medium.com/harvard-mit-st… Exxon likes to tell students that it's serious about the energy transition. And then it invests the vast majority of its money into continued fossil fuel extraction.

That's why we and @MitDivest crashed their recruiting event to call Exxon's lies.

A few days ago, @ForeignPolicy published a piece claiming that divestment would derail the energy transition.

What wasn’t mentioned was that its authors’ research is funded by big oil — and one of them is literally the vice president of a fossil fuel company.

(THREAD) 2/ Both authors work at Rice University’s Baker Institute for Public Policy. Some of the recent donors to its energy initiatives include Exxon, Saudi Aramco, Schlumberger, Chevron, and ConocoPhillips.

BREAKING: After a decade of constant pressure by students, faculty, and alums, @HARVARD IS FINALLY DIVESTING FROM FOSSIL FUELS.

It’s a massive victory for our community, the climate movement, and the world — and a strike against the power of the fossil fuel industry. (THREAD) 1/ From the beginning, Harvard has sought to duck, dodge, and deny: claiming that fossil fuel stocks were necessary for profit, claiming that the endowment shouldn’t play a role in fighting climate change, and even claiming that fossil fuel companies are part of the solution.

This morning, a Harvard professor was quoted in @NYTimes suggesting that the crisis Texas is the "necessary" result of markets working properly.

What it didn't say is that his research is largely funded by fossil fuel and utility interests.

(THREAD) According to Prof. Hogan's CV, he's served as an expert on behalf of @BP, @Shell, @Exxon, and consults for industry PR firm @fticonsulting.
