Who is BEN?
We’re glad you asked.
The future of energy is the future of America.
And we believe the future is bright. We are young people who want America to stay strong and free. So we’re working to educate and inspire our future leaders and influencers.
The BEN Declaration
To those who spread fear and uncertainty about what’s to come, we say …
We don’t accept your version of the future. We’re not going there.
We Are BEN—and we declare:
Energy independence is essential for American independence.
Prosperity and quality of life for all Americans are the most important factors when making energy decisions.
The forced advancement of naturally unreliable energy sources threatens the economic security of American citizens.
Americans should be free to use the energy sources that work best and cost the least.
The dramatic increase in energy demand means we have to embrace all the energy that is available to us.
We should use our technology and innovation to further clean up energy sources that are already the most affordable and reliable
We should let the American energy industry thrive without political agendas and government interference.
BEN was founded
by people who care about American freedom and prosperity. In today’s world, these great benefits heavily depend on access to affordable, abundant and reliable energy for everyone. Without enough energy our society quite literally crumbles. And yet today many people needlessly live under the burden of high energy costs.
Young People Today
are misinformed about energy production and consumption. The truth is often obscured by politics and false narratives. As a result, our younger generation is feeling more despair and less hope for the future.
We want our young people to know that there’s good reason for optimism. There is no reason to fear for our energy future. In America we have the answer right here under feet.
And that’s why
we’re working to educate young people, parents and teachers on the realities of energy production so they can separate fact from fiction and make smart choices. We promote this education freely through social media, online libraries, live events and partnerships with national student organizations.
Almost every day someone tells us they love what we’re doing and that our society today desperately needs just such an initiative.
If you agree then consider being a BENefactor. We welcome all contributions big or small. All funds go directly to BEN operations to help us reach more young people.
