I was appalled to read that Princeton is rolling back its commitment to divest from fossil fuel companies. It is well established that the rampant burning of fossil fuels is radically changing our planet and will cause tremendous human suffering if it is not stopped. Sadly, gaining from human misery is not new to our alma mater. Princeton also received considerable financial benefit from slavery. Let’s choose a better path.
