🔥 Today, Cambridge University students rallied for Fossil Free Careers! They're calling on the university to ban, refuse and exclude oil, gas, mining and arms firms from advertising careers on campus! Will the university listen up?

Want to uncover the institutional links between the your university and the fossil fuel industry? Our friends at @solid-research.bsky.social are running practical workshops on how to do just this at a range of UK universities next week! 👇

Climate disasters are not an accident. Hurricane Melissa is a result of political choices and a fossil fuel industry bent on putting profit before people and planet. Small Island Nations are being failed by the world's polluters. They must be heard. 👇

HUGE win as Edge Hill Uni commits to #DivestBorders AND #FossilFree 🥳 🎉 This is further recognition that @peopleandplanet.bsky.social campaigns work Migrant justice = climate justice. We demand our unis stand for both! Surely next on the victory list is @imperialcollegeldn.bsky.social? 👀

✊ This is what student power looks like! Students just forced Edge Hill University to take a stand against some of the world’s most destructive corporations - massive oil, coal and gas companies + companies profiting from the detention, deportation and misery of migrants. Share the huge news!

Oh yes, they look very intimidating... ( #sarcasm, in case that wasn't clear :) ) #CorporateInterests

👎 Shameful behaviour from Bath University! Solidarity to students who took action to shine a light on major fossil fuel, mining and arms corporations at their careers fair!

🔍 Our new research with @ldnminingnetwork.bsky.social shines light on the dirtiest mining companies. ❌ Dispossessing people of their land ❌ Polluting land + rivers ❌ Causing deadly disasters ❌ Association w/ militarisation, conflict + human rights abuses londonminingnetwork.org/2025/10/tran...

Spying on students for arms companies. It's despicable. UK universities need to ask themselves who they really serve and protect - war profiteers and genocide enablers, or their students fighting for peace?

Absolutely disgusting. ❌A British Ice to brutally enforce a hostile environment ❌ Tripling stop and search to intimidate ❌ Leave the European Court of Human Rights to remove rights and civil liberties The agenda is clear: Sow hate and division.

✨ BIG NEWS! We're opening submissions for our next social justice campaign! ✊ Every six years, the People & Planet student network chooses its next social justice campaign - and the decision starts now. Submit your idea: peopleandplanet.org/about/campai...

😃 Starting uni this month? Join a People & Planet campaign on your campus to: ✅ Learn about climate & migrant justice ✅ Build campaigns on campus ✅ Get skilled up on how to make change ✅ Make friends for life ✅ ...Take down the capitalist, colonial, imperialist system! ✊

It's simple. 👇

❌ Digital ID cards will do nothing but generate profits for tech giants at the expense of migrant rights and everyday freedoms.

This is nothing but despicable. Refugee family reunion was one of the only glimmers of light in the UK's dark hostile environment. To stop this avenue of migration is one of the cruellest forms of border violence you could enact.

This October, fossil fuel companies will be attending university careers fairs across the UK... And we're building a movement to stop them! ✊ Join our online organising call at 5pm on 11 Sept to take part in the Fossil Free Careers Month of Action: peopleandplanet.org/fossil-free-...

❌ Another record-breaking year of scorching temperatures driven by the fossil fuel industry. ❌ Meanwhile UK universities invest in and invite big oil and gas companies to recruit at their careers fairs They're complicit and we're calling it out. 🚨

Students in Uganda are fighting construction of the world's longest heated oil pipeline - EACOP. They are heroes for doing so but are being met with extreme force and violence. Alex faces huge medical bills as a result. Please consider supporting him: gofund.me/f11601c4

🔥 MASSIVE MILESTONE!!! 22 students' unions, representing 500,000+ students have backed Fossil Free Careers! This means: ❌ Banning oil, gas and mining companies from attending student union careers fairs and events ✊ Pushing the university to do the same!

❌ Right now, the UK Government is pushing to designate @palaction.bsky.social a "terrorist" group. We condemn this action in the strongest possible terms. We are all Palestine Action. ✊🇵🇸 🧵...

🎉 VICTORY!!! Lancaster SU backs the Fossil Free Careers campaign and boycotts oil, gas and mining companies! ✊ 📣 Students are now calling on the university careers department to commit to an Ethical Careers Policy! ✍️ Sign the petition to add your voice to their demands! tinyurl.com/3p544kd6

This is a shameful and appalling crack down on the fundamental right to protest! We must resist. We must protest. Free Palestine! 🇵🇸✊

🌊 The ocean absorbs about 1/3 of the CO2 we pump out. That CO₂ is turning the seas acidic. ⚠️ The fossil fuel industry is driving this. How many more planetary boundaries do we cross until it's stopped?

This is the 12th UK university to to ban fossil fuel companies from recruitment fairs!! ✊✊

🎉🎉 WE DID IT!!! Roehampton is the latest university to back Fossil Free Careers!! ✊ Read all about it! ⬇️ morningstaronline.co.uk/article/roeh...

✊ VICTORY! The University of Roehampton excludes fossil fuel, mining and arms industry recruitment! 🙌 They become the 12th university to commit to Fossil Free Careers. 📈 The demand for ethical careers is growing - could your university be next?!

Thank you @dralberro.bsky.social for organising a very stimulating workshop on transformative sustainability education, research & advocacy. I particularly enjoyed this afternoons talks by @peopleandplanet.bsky.social, @ckweatherill.bsky.social and Carl Death

🚨 BREAKING!!! 🚨 Solidarity with students erecting a new encampment at Oxford University in solidarity with Palestine! ✊🇵🇸 They're calling for the university to disclose, divest and cut ties with companies complicit in genocide and the occupation of Palestine!

🙌 Our Fossil Free Careers Strategy Summit in Newcastle was a huge success! ✅ Detailed discussions about our targets ✅ Creative ideas to grow our movement ✅ Shared learning across campuses ✅ Big plans for collaborative moments! We can't wait to get these ideas into action!

❌ This white paper will make the hostile environment EVEN MORE hostile. We need to take action against this blatant attempt to scapegoat, demonise and attack migrants. ✊ Join the fightback. Join the campaign to divest from the border industry.

TWO MORE student unions say fossil fuel companies have no place on campus!! ✊✊ Will universities listen up and act on growing demands for #FossilFreeCareers? ❌💼🛢️

Worth noting that Bath is a science and engineering heavy university so opposing links with fossil fuel companies is not an abstract question for many students there (here).

🎉 MOTION PASSED: UCL Student Union supports Fossil Free Careers! After years of dedication and hard work, students have secured a major commitment from the SU. 💪 ✊ UCL’s Climate Action Society now demand the university careers service boycotts oil, gas and mining recruitment too!

🎉 MOTION PASSED: University of Bath Student Union supports Fossil Free Careers! 💪 This is down to the hard work of student organisers at Bath People & Planet Society. They're putting serious pressure on the university careers service to end all recruitment ties with fossil fuel companies!

🎉 GREAT NEWS: Uni of Bristol's Sociology, Politics and International Studies school implements Fossil Free Careers! We’re now demanding the university ends fossil fuel recruitment across all of campus! Bristol staff, students, alum: sign here rb.gy/vmt0kv Everyone else: sign here rb.gy/humvsy
