Just a note on surveys. You cannot poll 350 students on the U of A campus and draw a conclusion about "young people". It may well be true that University of Alberta students are not environmentally engaged. But this would not be surprising or unexpected. With respect to environmental issues, Alberta is known to be an outlier, due to its oil industry and tar sands projects. University students also represent the richest segment of society, which also correlates with a lower concern for environmental issues. If you want to know what "young people" think and do, sample young people - not just university students, and certainly not just those from one university. Via Academica, May 9 issue.
