Sign the Call for Decarbonization at Cornell
We call on Cornell to participate in Ithaca’s Green New Deal and begin decarbonizing heat on campus now. Delayed decarbonization is incompatible with the evidence and Ithaca’s progressive energy law. Cornell should not be exempt from Ithaca’s fossil-fuel phaseout!
To learn more, read our op-eds in the Cornell Daily Sun and the Ithaca Times, or read the technical white paper by independent experts. To learn why Cornell should not use Earth Source Heat as a delay tactic to avoid near-term decarbonization, read the Save Earth Source Heat op-ed.
Add your name to the coalition of organizations and individuals calling on Cornell to decarbonize now and protect the integrity of the Ithaca Energy Code Supplement.
