CM – How climate change threatens universities across the country

Climate change remains a secret but terrifying specter for college students. I’m a junior at Indiana University and aside from unusual jumps in temperature, my college experience is unaffected by the direct effects of climate change.

When looking at the entirety of the climate crisis, many fail to realize that the most drastic effects are often concentrated on the west, east and south coasts of the country. With rain still scarce and fires sweeping across the west and the water level creeping closer to the east, the center of the country chugs relatively undisturbed.

But if there is one thing that many of my colleagues are concerned about, it is climate change. In discussions about our future, from work to family planning, someone often ponders how many goals in life can be achieved in a world in which climate change dominates daily life. We have left the questioning phase behind us and we have begun to lose a blindly hopeful outlook.

This is not intended to generalize the opinions of all college students, a select few remain dangerously complacent and unconcerned. But the changes we see in our environment are irreversible. Our future will change fundamentally as a result of climate change; that cannot be discussed. Unfortunately, in many cases, climate change can unnecessarily steal the attention of other movements in the struggle for justice. How could we spend all of our time tackling other problems when there may not be a sustainable future long enough to see the full effects of social change?

But for me, that misses the point. All struggles for more justice, regardless of whether it is about racial, gender or climate justice, march together. The fight against racism is not complete if climate racism is not adequately addressed. The fight against poverty cannot take place without properly addressing global warming. Climate change is inherently linked to all types of activism and needs to be discussed across the board.

My college has just published a new strategic plan for 2022-26. This includes a name change / rebranding as well as a new mission, vision and values. It also includes commitments to reconciliation with indigenous communities, diversity, flexible learning models and industrial partnerships. What is not included is the mention of sustainability.

The word “climate” appears only twice in this comprehensive strategy on the university’s priorities for the next five years. Both times it is used in an introduction to a section on a different topic. The college uses « climate » as a catchphrase to increase the number of words. Climate is used as a reference to general social issues before focusing on the other issues the school deals with.

That doesn’t mean the school isn’t doing anything to offset the effects of climate change. We have a sustainability office on campus that is piloting programs like conscious shopping, campus gardens, composting and recycling. Almost every new building at the university in the last 20 years is a « green » building.

But in essence, my college does not create any space for sustainability on campus or in its overall direction as an institution. There is currently no option for a Student U-Pass, an affordable student transit pass. But it offers ample parking on its flagship campus and makes good money with these parking permits.

The only good thing about the lack of exercise at my Climate Change College is that their inaction leaves students room to hold them accountable. If leadership made empty promises and meaningless initiatives, it could be more difficult to hold them accountable. But since they have made no promises, students have the opportunity to organize now and in the future and to speak out for sustainable practices.

From the physical threats it poses to the Harvard campus – with sea levels rising in the Boston area around 2100-2100 – to its impact on homes, families and the future of students – climate change is looming over my university. It challenges my colleagues and I to think critically about how we can use the unique resources and knowledge that are available to us to advance climate protection. And thus shows the immense need to hold our universities accountable for serious climate protection. That means moving them beyond rhetoric. It means using their institutional capacity and clout against an essentially untenable and unjust status quo; This also includes urging them to uncover and dismantle connections to fossil fuels that go beyond their foundation and that permeate central climate and energy policy research, among other things.

In the face of an unprecedented crisis, we are organizing in unprecedented ways – and it works. Here at Harvard, we won a great victory when, after a decade of relentless activism, the university finally committed to moving away from fossil fuels. This victory is incredible proof of the strength of the student organization. But we need Harvard and all of its peer institutions to move further and faster. The failure of the recent COP26 international climate conference to create a framework that can mitigate the dangerous levels of planetary warming, along with the crumbling of much-needed US climate policy proposals in Congress and the indolence of the Biden administration on climate, confirms only that we need strategies to promote climate protection, justice and justice that operate outside of conventional politics and diplomacy. Throughout history, college students have played an invaluable role in ending systems of exploitation through the use of strategies such as divestment; the current moment is no different. As climate change casts a growing shadow over campus life, students will continue to demonstrate the climate leadership our future requires. We will continue to challenge the actors who are blocking a just and sustainable world and try to build that world ourselves from the ground up.

So far this semester classes have been suspended due to flash flood warnings Rain in New York canceled twice. While my friends and I enjoyed the extra time of our weeks, knowing that this is one of the many irreversible effects of climate change was great. The rains that fall were described as rare and “record breaking”. In other words, the change in weather has reminded us that we are in a climate crisis and our city is unprepared for it. Several times this year, subway stations have been filled with water to prevent students scattered across the five boroughs from getting to campus. Even part of Fordham’s Lincoln Center campus was flooded in September.

In all honesty, as college students we don’t know what to do anymore. On one hand, most of us are trying to be environmentally conscious, but will vegan tacos and tote bags really help save our city from submerging? Even if we seem to be trying, we cannot escape the terrible influence Amazon has over us. Several times a week I see trucks unloading hundreds of Amazon parcels and I’ll be the first to admit the guilt. It’s just cheaper and faster when I don’t have the time or patience to shop elsewhere. Obviously, many of my colleagues feel the same way.

How important is individual action when institutional changes, from corporations to universities, are hardly implemented and with little transparency? Take recycling, for example. We’re not even sure how much we’re recycling as our school’s website simply claims to « recycle as much material as possible » while only citing a 2015 statistic. And even if we recycle, is it enough if consumption has us? addicted? While many of us know that we are responsible on an individual level, it is incredibly daunting to feel like we are not in control of climate change, its effects and efforts to slow it down.

The most vivid memory of my first semester in California in 2018 is the campfire-like smell of hallways. The air was hazy from massive forest fires that ravaged the west coast, a smoke that pale compared to the crimson sky of 2020.

As I stayed on campus the following summer to do research, the university cut back its cooling system several times because it couldn’t cope with the unusual heat. Cold air, we were told, needs to be kept for high priority areas such as the hospital. Some students lost research projects that needed to be tempered. Stanford has since announced that it will expand its system « to keep pace with a growing campus and a warming climate. » As a doctoral student in the field of climate change, I see this crisis bleeding out of my dissertation into my everyday life.

In 2020 Stanford announced a new school focused on climate and sustainability. You’d think a university that says it gives priority to climate research and action has ditched fossil fuels, or at least refused the fossil fuel industry’s money for environmental research. Both is not the case. Stanford refuses to follow his colleagues – including Harvard and Dartmouth – in the sale of its $ 37.8 billion foundation assets. On the contrary, the university seems as familiar with the fossil fuel industry as it has ever been: just a few weeks ago I was encouraged to apply for a Chevron Fellowship in Energy, an 18-month stipend for Stanford PhD students of 115,000 US dollars selected « with the support of Chevron » to fund energy research.

The hypocrisy is omnipresent: Chevron sponsors our energy seminars. This is despite studies by Stanford researchers of the historical, persistent, deliberate efforts of the fossil fuel industry to misinform the public about climate change.

Why Stanford didn’t sell – and why the university continues to raise fossil fuel funds to fund its environmental research – absolutely amazes me. What good is our climate research if our university refuses to take a stand against the industries that continue this crisis?

Unless Stanford’s new sustainability school is fossil-fuel free – a commitment the current administration is rejecting despite pressure from students, faculty and alumni – the university’s words will be seen for what they are: no more than mean Air.

The academic world is finding it difficult to leave its money where it’s at. While colleges fund research, faculty and initiatives that embody the values ​​of environmental stewardship, equity and anti-oppression, much of their funds remain invested in the industries most responsible for this climate crisis and the human rights violations it brings. Fortunately, this is starting to change as many well-known institutions with large purses publicly commit to a full divestment from the fossil fuel industry. But those changes don’t come about because a wealthy, gray-haired trustee has a sudden change of heart – thanks to the intergenerational student activism that has been keeping pressure on universities for years, the issue of fossil fuel divestments has been brought to the table and seen through. However, with many universities still refusing to move (like my institution, Northeastern University, which refuses to divest its indirect fossil fuel investments), campuses will remain a hub for students to become activists and community – Develop organizers as they try to make their institutions truly accountable for their « sustainability claims ». The student-led divestment movement will also become increasingly intersectional, I hope, as young activists link the violent fossil fuel economy to human incarceration; both violent ventures profitable under racial capitalism. Nothing is more hypocritical about institutions that claim to improve the future of students than investing in the polluting and violent systems that make our future so uncertain.

Climate change has made environmental activism a central place in student life, which can be seen every day in the cafeteria. Meat is no longer served on Mondays and vegetarian dishes make up the bulk of the food prepared by the university. Living vegetarians and vegans can be difficult when these options are in the minority, but Freie Universität’s cafeteria has turned this model on its head. Meat and fish make up 4 percent of the total menu, and the meals use seasonal ingredients to minimize the carbon footprint of sourcing the products. This step not only makes it easier to be vegetarian, it also makes it clear that students are more conscious of their food and think about its impact on the environment.

Freie Universität Berlin was the first university in Germany to declare a climate emergency, and this decision was led by student activists. The university has the ambitious goal of becoming climate neutral by 2025 and is currently working on integrating climate protection into the curricula of all courses. In addition, students at Freie Universität synthesize the climate crisis with everyday university life, from preparing food to heating to paper consumption. The cafeteria reminds us daily of our impact on climate change and creates a sense of urgency to act, but also shows that change can be effectively implemented on a large scale.
