Just how global is the focus of Cornell’s globalist activist community? Cornellians certainly have the right to petition the University, and it is understandable why they would begin their activism here. In March, orange-clad activists demanded that Cornell completely divest from fossil fuels, placing particular focus on “raising awareness” about their campaign. Logic would dictate that calling out China, the world’s worst current polluter, would be a sensible starting point for any environmental activist. No outraged letters to the editor from student activists demanded University disclosure; no rallies were planned; no symbolic Student Assembly votes were scheduled.
