The Fossil Free Tour stands in solidarity with university workers at the University of Birmingham set to partake in the nation-wide strike on 31 October. We’ve been in close contact with local representatives from the University and College Union (UCU) and are grateful for their dispensation for this event to go ahead during a strike. Their support highlights an important overlap between our struggles. Whether it’s paying staff a fair wage or cutting off support for the fossil fuel industry, our universities can and must do more to align their financial resources with the needs of both people and planet.
