Students For a Constructive Tomorrow

Committee For A Consturctive Tomorrow

 Throughout the Fall Semester, CFACT’s student leaders have been engaging their peers with scientific facts and putting their talk of stewarding the environment into real action.

In Pennsylvania, for example, CFACT coordinated a tour of twenty-four Grove City College students (pictured above) to see a conventional hydraulic fracturing, or “fracking” operation first hand.

“Several of the students said they arrived expecting hydrofracturing to be dangerous or harmful but that the visit was eye-opening for them,” explained Arthur Stewart, president of Cameron Energy, the tour operators. One student said, “I thought fracking was very dangerous before today.”

Of course, it’s not just in Pennsylvania CFACT students are kicking butt, but also in other parts of the country:

• At West Virginia University, CFACT filmed student reactions when shown the fact the USA leads the world in CO2 reductions despite leaving the Paris Climate Accord. “It was great showing my fellow students what is actually going on with CO2 emissions,” said Nathan Burdette, a sophomore at WVU. “Technology, through fracking for natural gas, has done way more to reduce emissions than a carbon tax ever could.” You can watch the full video here.
• At Delta State University in Mississippi, CFACT Senior Policy Adviser Paul Driessen spoke about the pervasive, yet often unreported “eco-racist” policies developed by rich, liberal Greens that often wind up hurting developing nations. Student Ira Barger, who attended the talk, said: “It is because of the tendency of today’s universities to present increasingly narrow windows of acceptable opinion that the impact and the importance of this event and events like it are sorely needed. These students were presented with a viewpoint that directly opposes the de facto narrative that is constantly regurgitated in classrooms across the country.”
• Seattle University Collegians coordinated a campus and city clean up to protect the Puget Sound. “Instead of relying on local or federal government stepping in, we used this opportunity to demonstrate the influence that we still have as individuals,” Christian Spears said, a junior.
• CFACT at Vanderbilt University held a campus-wide outreach effort in support of hunting. Using an inflatable deer to grab students’ attention, CFACT’s leaders acquired signatures in support of hunting from students of all backgrounds and areas of study.

I, for one, am greatly encouraged by these students fighting for sanity on their campuses. Bottom line: don’t believe everything you hear. The youth of our great nation are not all as clueless as the fake news media would lead you to believe.
For nature and people too,
 

Craig Rucker President
