WI Student Climate Action Coalition - Madison

Mission:
To build a movement at UW-Madison by organizing a coalition of students that advocate for climate action, environmental justice, and sustainability.

UW-Madison's investments in the fossil fuel industry are not only immoral—they're illegal. After a decade of protests, petitions, and appointments, we filed an official complaint with WI Attorney General @JoshKaulWI to hold the WFAA accountable. https://t.co/I2cSqt2kKw

.@BadgerHerald I'm down at Library Mall for the Divestment March and Climate Strike organized by @wscacmadison and other UW and Madison-based orgs. The plan is to march to the WI Capitol to urge the UW System to divest from fossil fuels. Follow this thread for updates.

Two things I learned at the #climatestrike today:

1) a heavy ass megaphone & wind don’t make for a good speech performance

2) the youths are the future

Thank you @d8alder, @FrancescaHongWI, @wscacmadison, @mcprestigiacomo, & so many others for inspiring me today & everyday.

[Fossil Free Marquette @FFMarquette]

The Uniform Prudent Management of Institutional Funds Act has been adopted by 49 states, INCLUDING WI.

Fossil fuel investments are NOT consistent with MU's mission, and therefore in violation of state law.

Fascinating to see which Big 10 will divest next--I'm guessing Michigan, but Wisconsin closing fast! Enormous thanks to all who keep pressing @350Madison

UW-Madison is funding fossil fuel projects like Line 3 that threaten Indigenous sovereignty, land, water, and the future of our planet. Join us at the Student Divestment Virtual Rally to #DefundLine3 on March 5th to learn more and take action. https://t.co/jlLzT0OKKC

[350 Wisconsin @350Wisconsin]

Fantastic long-awaited news! UW Madison's Faculty Senate adopted a resolution calling on the UW Foundation to disclose fossil fuel investments, make a plan to fully divest, and fossil-free alternatives for donors. The vote? 149-13! #StopTheMoneyPipeline
