It's truly perfect. During the Harvard Yale football game today, a group of students, faculty and others stormed the field and disrupted the game with demands that each university divest all holdings of fossil fuel companies and also cancel all debt from Puerto Rico held by each.
No one in the stands seemed to care very much. Still, I think it would be better if both Harvard and Yale not only divested of fossil fuel holdings but also refused to use any electricity generated by means of fossil fuel, refused to accept any transportation using fossil fuel and boycotted all goods produced using fossil fuel of any kind. In that way, the students and faculty (and others) could sit in cold dark buildings, stuck no campus due to lack of transportation while starving due to lack of food and water.
Let the protesters get what they want.
It sounds like the perfect safe space.
By the way, don't think this is an anti-Harvard diatribe. I'm a Harvard grad. It may be an anti-Yale diatribe, but who cares about Yale anyway?
