 Oh dear, many of my erstwhile colleagues in #universities have been taking the #fossilfuel firms money (even as the declare they'll disinvest from the sector)...

Its not the first time universities have held their nose & taken the money... but then again if you force institutions into a difficult financial situation, they will become less fussy on where the cash they need comes from.

(Its also worth noting for the sector this really is rather small change)
