The Student Sustainability Association at Penn (SSAP) is hosting an Earth Day Faculty Divestment Panel on Thursday, April 22nd at 6:00 PM. This event headlines our GreenWeek 2021 campaign, a campus-wide effort to increase environmental consciousness among the Penn community. This panel aims to display diverse, University-wide faculty support for Penn to fully divest its endowment from fossil fuels. Penn Professors Eric Orts, Paul Saint-Amour, Nikhil Anand, Anne Berg, Howard Kunreuther, and Francesca McCann, representing a wide array of academic disciplines, will engage in a moderated discussion to paint a compelling and comprehensive picture of why fossil fuel divestment by Penn makes financial, social, and scientific sense. In addition, panelists will discuss Penn’s recent net-zero by 2050 climate plan in the context of fossil fuel divestment and ambitious University-wide climate action.
