Climate Coalition "Divest" Poster

Large piece of cardboard with hand painted words in black, blue, and red.
Title:
Climate Coalition "Divest" Poster
Description:
Different student organizations have pushed Duke to divest from fossil fuels since 2012. In 2022, nearly 2,500 students voted in support of the Divestment Referendum proposed by the Duke Climate Coalition (DCC). This poster was used in a protest on Bryan Center Plaza in November of the same year, pushing for Duke to adhere to the results of the referendum. In 2022, President Price announced the Climate Commitment, Duke’s initiative to combat climate change, though at this time the demands to divest from fossil fuels have not been met.
