Taking the message on the road.
Economic Human Rights Project Director Paul Driessen today began a nationwide swing to firmly place the problem of eco-imperialism on the national agenda.
Presentation
to student body:
University of Minnesota, Minneapolis
Sponsored by
the Committee For A Constructive Tomorrow (CFACT)
Director Paul Driessen here unveiled his hard-hitting PowerPoint presentation exposing the horrors of eco-imperialism in terms of energy available to the people of the world:

By comparing the comfort and pleasure enjoyed by First World environmentalists to the pain and misery they impose upon the desperate and anguished people of the Third World, Director Driessen opens his attack on the unfairness and brutality of what has been perceived as a mild and acceptable movement to show that it must be harnessed to human needs.

To underline the horrifying consequences of global environmentalism, Director Paul Driessen noted: “But just as there is a circle of life, there is also a circle of death. It connects policies that perpetuate poverty, disease, malnutrition and early death – and will continue to do so as long as ideological groups are allowed to dictate choices for the developing world.”
The audience was stunned by the message, remaining to ask many questions and test their old beliefs in the light of new information.
The education had begun.
Next: March 24 Road show continues at the University of Wisconsin
