1AC - Connect AmericasTournament: Westside | Round: Quarters | Opponent: Sioux Falls Roosevelt MK | Judge: Lee, Rubaie, Clevenger Renewable energy promotes clean tech leadership which solves great power war Independently, oil dependency hurts the U.S. military and foreign policy goals --- that escalates to great power conflict Second, only alternative and renewable energies solve climate change And Mexican renewable energy development is modeled globally Mexico’s launch today of a 2050 Climate Change Vision report is a welcome next step CO2 causes warming and melting of methane deposits which magnify warming tenfold Independently, methane release is 10,000 times worse than nuclear war Warming’s real and anthropogenic – this card assumes all of their warrants – 99 of scientists vote aff Negative feedback doesn’t solve, and CO2 harms agriculture Climate changes results in extinction Climate change causes an ice age - consensus goes aff. An ice age causes multiple scenarios for extinction by 2015 Independently, ocean acidification from CO2 cause extinction The plan is key to spurring renewable energy development – that solves Contention two is the grid. The US power grid vulnerable to attacks now WASHINGTON – A major cyber attack somewhere in the United States is becoming increasingly Smart grids key to rapid recovery from grid failure Solar storms coming – consensus of experts agree – tanks electric grid Smart grid early warning tech is key to grid protection We’ll isolate 2 impacts: First – meltdowns – they cause extinction Second – electricity – long-term power outages lead to extinction Even limited blackouts will spillover due to interdependency Plan will lead to smart grid implementation Text: The United States federal government should substantially increase its economic engagement towards Mexico as per the Connecting the Americas initiative. Contention three is solvency. Connect Americas is feasible and needed in the status quo Now 15 years of cooperation non-unique the disad, but that doesn’t take out the aff – more cooperation is necessary to realize the true potential of renewable technology The US has been engaged with Mexico in renewable energy issues for over 15 years | 1/13/14 |

1AC - Student ExchangesTournament: Simpson | Round: 1 | Opponent: Valley HR | Judge: Spencer Sheiff Contention 1: Student Exchanges The creation of a forum will get public and private universities to remove barriers and massively increase the number of US-Mexico student exchanges. An increase in student exchanges is key to develop the human capital necessary to expand Mexico’s renewables energy development Only alternative and renewable energies solve climate change Independently bilateral cooperation expands renewable development and sets a model for global CO2 reductions And, warming’s real and anthropogenic-~--reject skeptics No negative feedback or CO2 ag args Climate changes results in extinction And the plan creates a relationship that allows for Mexican and American science which guarantees science diplomacy Science Diplomacy solves proliferation and conflict – our internal link is key Prolif leads to nuke war Contention 2: Aerospace Student exchange program key to Mexico’s aerospace program—lack of domestic education infrastructure Now is key – expansion of human capital is needed to consolidate current industry momentum US-Mexico aerospace cooperation key to industry competiveness—alternative is outsourcing to China US-China aerospace parity causes US-China war US-Sino war goes nuclear. Crisis management won’t check Strong aerospace key to overall US air power Air power is the only credible way to deter aggression It’s a key internal link into sustaining heg – solves nuke wars and escalation of scenarios Alternatives to heg cause great power war and kills cooperation on every important issue Global hotspot escalation is inevitable – 40 different conflicts Hegemonic pursuance of domination inevitable | 1/23/14 |
1AC - Student Exchanges - Canada AdvTournament: Westside | Round: 5 | Opponent: Barstow RS | Judge: Zach Lipman Plans bilateral nature and integration of economic sectors ensures massive economic growth in all sectors. Deeper bilateral ties are key to the future of trade and the auto industry. The US auto industry can’t function without Mexican manufacturing and products US Auto industry is key to the Canadian economy The Canadian Auto Workers Union will likely have a role to play in any scenario Canadian economic decline causes Quebec secession Current opinion polls in Quebec show that pro-independence forces are somewhat below the This collapses Canadian soft power and causes U.S. Russia war Lamont's forecasts, based upon all of this input? Canada will disintegrate shortly after Canada’s soft power prevents Sino-Japan war---it goes nuclear. Quebec is specifically key to de-escalation Regional instability leads to extinction Soft power is critical to Canadian agriculture. Exports key to Canadian agriculture and lack of diplomacy means they get crowded out Canadian ag is key to global food supply– new demand is uniquely necessary Food Insecurity causes Extinction Low economy leads to military budget cuts This kills Canadian BMD Only way to deter conflict - aggression isn’t perceived | 1/13/14 |
Connect Americas v2Tournament: Heritage Hall | Round: 2 | Opponent: Jenks JS | Judge: Tommy Snider Took out the Ice Age scenario and added: Fourth, building Mexico’s energy capacity boosts our energy diplomacy – that expands energy trading Energy trading solves all war | 1/23/14 |
