The most disturbing aspect I found in the
New York Times article I wrote about yesterday was what seems to be a blind and ignorant activism by teachers not equipped with all the facts on the science of climate change.
Quoting from the article:"But it has been embraced by teachers eager to supplement textbooks that lag behind scientific findings on climate change and pollution."
and
"But many educators say the video is a boon to teachers as they struggle to address the gap in what textbooks say about the environment and what science has revealed in recent years." The article is replete with such premises from educators.
Really? Is the science and thus the knowledge of mankind on these difficult issues settled to the point that it can now become part of educational curriculums?
(My confusion based on the facts in the article as to the age group this video was targetted at by the teachers who choose to make it classroom material will have to be addressed in another posting -the age range per the article seemed to be all over the map from 5 year-olds to seniors in high schools.)
Let us hear about the facts of the science of "climate change" from leading scientist Dr S Fred Singer.
