VC with Del Valle High School, Del Valle, Texas USA
Focus: International Criminal Court – Moot Court Case on Oil
There were 2 speakers per side. Each side had 30 minutes to present their speech followed by a Q and A session where each side challenged the other on what they presented.
Our students were talking for the stance that oil is a fossil fuel, we are running out of oil and that oil companies are not manipulating with the oil prices (the oil prices are determined by market mechanism). The students made use of scientific data and prior research studies to support their stance. The opposition raised very brilliant questions too for instance since most of the oil is stored in the middle-east countries does that indicate that dinosaurs migrated to Middle-east to die. It was overall highly entertaining and interesting.
