We are a club of University of Vermont students who got UVM to divest from fossil fuels and now aim to get them to meet their 2010 climate goals

[Organize @organizeuvm]

We met the first goal, but so did the rest of Burlington. We have renewable electricity from the McNeil biomass plant- which is actually more carbon intensive than some fossil fuels. We still burn fossil fuels on campus.

[Organize @organizeuvm]

It’s 2021 and less than 15% (not 100%) of our thermal energy is carbon neutral. #carbonneutralUVM @uvmvermont

hey besties! did you sign our petition at https://t.co/6x9JB7HMO0 and send it to your friends, teachers, parents, and your little cousin who wants to come to UVM?

[The Vermont Cynic @VermontCynic]

UVM is faltering to fulfill sustainability goals set over a decade ago, and University officials have failed to provide updated data on progress they’ve made.

Thank you to the activists, past and present, who made this possible. UVM may have divested for the wrong reasons, but nonetheless, we are happy it happened.
