Green New Deal at UCSD

ACT: Take a minute to sign this petition: ✊🖊👭👬🌎
JPMorgan Chase, the world’s biggest banker of fossil fuels, is helping funnel more than $5 billion in loans to the company behind Coastal GasLink. Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. has plans to purchase 65% of the pipeline with Alberta Investment Management Corp (AIMCo). Companies like Chase and KKR actively perpetuate the destruction of stolen Indigenous lands to fuel the climate crisis.
Sign the petition and rise up with the Wet'suwet'en people: Demand Chase and KKR defund the Coastal GasLink pipeline.

Sign the petition to protect Indigenous Sovereignty: Demand fossil fuel profiteers JPMorgan Chase and Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. divest from Coastal GasLink pipeline

Right now in British Columbia, Canada, Indigenous Wet’suwet’en Hereditary Chiefs and land defenders are resisting the construction of the TC Energy Coastal GasLink pipeline slated to cut through their territories. The Wet’suwet’en have been fighting to stop this pipeline for almost a decade....

Green New Deal at UCSD

We joined forces with other organisations in the region to call on the City of San Diego to implement an MTS Youth Opportunity Pass.

A YOP will help our region achieve clean air and a livable future by reducing greenhouse gas emissions and meeting climate goals and empower our youth.

Green New Deal at UCSD

ACT: UCSD Green Talk is hosting a panel discussion on Wednesday night, and we want YOU to ask them why the UCSD is failing to meet their Climate Action Plan goals. By asking this, we make a point of showing that what the university is doing isn't enough, and that we are watching!
Submit your own question to the panel here: https://iscucsd.wixsite.com/main/green-talks

For your inspiration, see the question we've submitted on behalf of the organisation. Let's flood their question inbox with queries along these lines!
"While we see UCSD making steps towards improved sustainability, it has failed to reach its zero waste by 2020 goal, and is not on track (nor appears to be making any real efforts) to meet its 2025 decarbonisation goal. Why do you think this is, is this a problem that can be solved under global capitalism? How can we pressure the UCSD administration to get serious about reducing carbon emissions and safeguarding our future?"

UCSD Green New Deal @ucsdgreennewde1

A Green New Deal moment. New research by Lord Stern and others review evidence suggesting that green projects create more jobs, deliver higher short-term returns per $ and lead to increased cost savings, compared to traditional fiscal stimulus.

UCSD Green New Deal @ucsdgreennewde1

A powerful critique by leftist epidemiologists and others of how COVID-19 relates to capitalistic exploitation of nature, agribusiness, and international "circuits of capital". The connection with the climate crisis is profound. https://t.co/k38OS6ITvR
