VIDEO: College students think world will end in 12 years
Kyle Hooten - St. Olaf College •September 23, 2019

Students across the globe walked out of class on September 20 as part of a “climate strike” aimed at pursuing “environmental justice.”

The College Fix sent one of its student reporters, Kyle Hooten, to a climate strike at St. Olaf College in Minnesota where roughly 1,000 students vacated class, marched into the town of Northfield, and held a rally.

Many of these students said they believe humanity is on a collision course with climate catastrophe and agree with Democratic Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez that there’s only 12 years left before the planet becomes uninhabitable.
