A Call for the Divestment of All Funds from the Fossil Fuel Industry by All Universities in Hong Kong<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n First let me introduce myself. My name is LEE Wai-choi, Eddy. I am the co-founder and convenor of an organization called 350HK<\/a>\u00a0committed to the fighting of the climate crisis. I am writing to call for the divestment of all funds from the fossil fuel Industry by all universities in Hong Kong Universities are not just institutions of higher education. They embody the hope of our society. And yet catastrophic climate change resulting from global warming is fast destroying this hope for all societies on Earth. As global warming is caused by carbon dioxide produced by the burning of fossil fuel (coal, oil and gas), we at 350HK would like to sincerely suggest that The University of Hong Kong should divest all her funds from the fossil fuel industry.<\/p>\n The divestment timeframe could be from one year to as many as five years. The important thing is not to terminate all such investments immediately, but to send out a loud and clear message to the society at large that such investments amount to approving and encouraging the inflicting of pain and suffering to humankind as well as the non-human world via climate disasters. Divestment is about doing the right thing, and hence is largely a moral decision. It is well known that most universities of the world have a strict rule against investment in gambling and tobacco industry. It is high time fossil fuel be added to this list, as the damage they are bringing to our world is incomparably larger.<\/p>\n The Global Divestment Campaign was first launched by an organization called 350.org<\/a>\u00a0about five years ago. Realizing the severity and urgency of the climate crisis, many top universities have since responded to this call, including Stanford University and Syracuse University in the US, and Oxford University, SOAS London University and Glasgow University in the UK. Other institutions committed to divestment include faith-based organizations like the World Council of Churches and philanthropic organizations like the Rockefeller Brothers Fund. A list of such organizations could be found from this website<\/a>. The period from 5th to 13th May this year has been designated the Global Divestment Mobilization (GDM) week<\/a>. While we understand the time is too short for any firm commitment to be made by your university before that time, we would appreciate it very much if you could advise us whether your university will put divestment on her agenda in the near future, and if yes, what tentative roadmap and timetable will be adopted. \u00a0In case the answer to the above question is in the negative (i.e. no divestment would be contemplated in the near- and mid-term future), we would also appreciate it if you could explain to us what are the difficulties involved.<\/p>\n Please note that a letter similar to this one is being sent to all other eight universities in Hong Kong, and all replies will be made known to the public during the GDM week. A similarly worded letter has also been sent to the Student Unions of all universities. University students will be actively involved in this campaign, for clearly their future is at stake.<\/p>\n For your reference, further information on the dire situation we are in could be found in Wikipedia under the headings \u201cEffects of Global Warming\u201d , \u201cAbrupt Climate Change\u201d, \u201cArctic Methane Emissions\u201d, \u201cOcean Acidification\u201d, \u201cCoral Bleaching\u201d and \u201cHolocene Extinction\u201d etc.<\/p>\n We look forward to your positive reply.

\nFrom a purely investment point of view, fossil fuel is deemed by many financial experts to be a \u201csunset industry\u201d, and hence not a good investment choice. If the world is to stay within the safety limit of \u201c2 degrees temperature rise\u201d as agreed by the 2015 Paris Climate Conference, many assets of the industry will become \u201cstranded assets\u201d, with their value plummeting to near zero. Renewable energy like solar and wind with no carbon emission will be the future industry of choice.<\/p>\n
