Judges'' comments
Dear EJS organizing team,
Thank you very much for your proposal on the “Youth action on climate change” contest.
Your proposal has progressed to the semi-finals, congratulations!
The feasibility and energy of it were particularly appreciated by the Judges. It seems like an interesting proposal to make young people front and center of the fight against hydraulic fracturing, with all its aspects carefully thought through and combined together. However, they also noted that the geographical scope was very limited; this contest is looking for scalable ideas. A revised proposal would therefore need to provide more information on how the project could be replicated in other communities (including outside the US) harmed by fracking, including other financing sources for that. Finally, there is a clear (and understandable) anti-fracking bias in your proposal : in your revision, make sure to use a more objectivity and/or quote precise and independent sources.
Thanks again for your contribution, and best of luck revising your proposal for the Finals!
Best,
Antoine on behalf of the “Youth action” fellows
