I’m still savouring this week’s news 🎆: @uwaterloo has committed to remove fossil fuels from its pension + endowment investments and to achieve 100% carbon neutrality by 2040. More details here👇 plus a thread of thanks.
Today is a monumental day for @uwaterloo! 🖤💛 This afternoon, the Board of Governors unanimously voted in favour of adopting a landmark #decarbonization strategy for their investments, a legacy that cements them as a leader and innovator on climate action. #BeyondDivestmentUW
