The University of Winnipeg Students\u2019 Association says that it will continue to fight for a full divestment from fossil fuels following a recent UWinnipeg\u00a0board decision<\/a>\u00a0that stopped short of such a move. On Monday night, the school\u2019s board approved the creation of a green fund that will support investments in renewable energy. The university has said that the policy is similar to that adopted by other schools. Students\u2019 Association Environmental Ethics Director Avery Letkemann, however, says that nothing short of full divestment is acceptable. \u201cI do not accept this as the final decision,\u201d she said. \u201cWe’re not giving up. Divestment is never going to go away. The campaign will never go away.\u201d<\/p>\n
