Glasgow University Fossil Free

● What is Fossil Free? ● Our story ● Key challenges ● Beyond Glasgow Outline

Do The Math “If it's wrong to wreck the climate, it's wrong to profit from that wreckage” - Bill McKibben, 350.org

We're calling on all UK universities to Move their money out of fossil fuels 2. Stop the greenwash 3. Support a clean energy future

Can divestment work? Anti-Apartheid in the 80s: Divestment applied direct economic pressure, and helped reveal the immorality of apartheid, galvanizing a movement of concerned citizens around the world. Tobacco divestment: No UK university in their right mind would accept funding from or invest their funds in tobacco companies these days - it’s inconsistent with their research on cancer.

A global campaign movement

Spreading rapidly across the UK ● Campaigns at 50 universities ● Glasgow: First UK university to divest! £18 million divested from fossil fuels ● SOAS: Put a freeze on any new fossil fuel investments! ● NUS backing the campaign. ● Student Union motions passed at Warwick, UCL, Bristol, Hull, Leeds Met, Sussex, Sheffield, Oxford, Cambridge, Birmingham, UEA, Glasgow, Edinburgh, SOAS, Anglia Ruskin and KCL!
