Kansas Bill Would Require Teachers To Misinform Students About Climate Change

[Avatar4321]

The earth is warming. The ice is melting. Seas will rise. There will be consequences...

Yeah. More farmland and less snow. Not seeing a problem.

Oh wait, I forgot. Global warming is going to cause the next ice age. Which would be funny if you guys werent serious about it.

How DARE these teachers present BOTH sides of the global warming, er, "climate change" controversy!

Exactly, even the side that only 3% of climate scientists agree on...

Oh you mean these 3%????

Scientists in this section have made comments that the observed warming is more likely attributable to natural causes than to human activities. Their views on climate change are usually described in more detail in their biographical articles.

How come when I look up those names, I find articles like this:

The earth is warming. The ice is melting. Seas will rise. There will be consequences...

Yeah. More farmland and less snow. Not seeing a problem.

Oh wait, I forgot. Global warming is going to cause the next ice age. Which would be funny if you guys werent serious about it.

Maybe you should question why you believe the deniers and not the believers...

Why Climate Deniers Have No Scientific Credibility - In One Pie Chart | DeSmogBlog

The problem is that while the earth is warming you think it's because of humans.... You believe so much in what you say that you drive a car, you sit there on the internet using the computer that was made with fossil fuels and shipped/packaged and so on by fossil fuels.


Even the greatest minds in the government funded climate change junk science department are stumped as to why global warming has almost stopped.

problem is the planet's tempature has been going down since 98.

See that's the problem with this so called science. They are making radical and foolish predictions based on little information. We barely have 100 years of climate tempatures. in those 100 years the tempatures have gone up and they have gone down. We were told a few decades ago that we needed to fear the next ice age because we were making the planet cool and thus we need more government in our lives to stop it.

Then in the 80s, scientists realized they predicted the wrong thing. The planet was actually warming. In 2010, New York City was supposed to be flooded because of the rising oceans. We all saw how that prediction turned out.

Now it's climate change. Because that way it doesnt matter if the tempature goes up or down, they can still be safe and claim they were predicting it.

And yet, foolish people dont bother thinking about it and eat it all up. Go figure.

Dont need to question it. See I did this crazy thing called THINKING. I know it's a radical concept for alot of people. But you see, I don't need someone telling me what to believe. I look at facts and come to my own conclusions. I know it's just crazy.

Just because that's the reasoning you use, doesn't mean the rest of us can't look at the actual evidence and make logical conclusions.

Your signature sort of contradicts "logical" - in my opinion...

By Rebecca Leber

Last week, the Kansas House Education Committee introduced a bill that mandates teachers question the scientific basis of global warming, becoming the latest state to take up one of American Legislative Exchange Council’s “model bills” aiming to misrepresent climate change in schools.

Kansas would join Texas, Louisiana, Tennessee and Oklahoma as the fifth state to cast climate change as a “controversial” topic. But climate change is only controversial in political and polluter circles, not the scientific community. 97 percent of climate scientists actively publishing in the field agree climate change is human-caused.

As National Center for Science Education executive director Eugenie C. Scott explained, “The only effects of enacting such a misguided bill would be to discourage responsible teachers from presenting climate science accurately and to encourage irresponsible teachers to misrepresent it as controversial.”

More: Kansas Bill Would Require Teachers To Misinform Students About Climate Change

Looks to me like the Kansas bill would require teachers to stop misnforming students about Goebbels warming, AKA "climate change"....Or the great climatic googly-moogly, if you will.

 

[Obamanation]

Yup oddball, you nailed it.

Speaking of climate change - it was almost 60 here today and tomorrow it's supposed to snow!

Global Warming --- haaaaaahahahahaha!!!
Didn't global warming invent the internet?

 

[TruthSeeker56]

Damn.. Some leftists just hate the truth being taught.

My "truth" agrees with 97% of climate scientists.

My "truth" is this:

The earth is warming. The ice is melting. Seas will rise. There will be consequences...

Climate has been changing since Day 1 (4 Billion years ago). Why, in that time, I am sure the Earth has warmed, cooled, frozen, melted and sea levels have changed. My bet is they will continue to do so. When we had the Ice Age, that was climate change. However, Exxon was not around to be blamed but I am sure you will find a way to retroactively blame them for that what. Perhaps you can start by perusing the email servers at the University of East Anglia......all sorts of redacts reside in those servers to back your agenda.

 

[BlindBoo]

Would you believe they are looking for oil in the Arctic circle.. Why?
Oil is formed by decaying trees and we ALL know the Arctic circle has been very cold forever right so why are they looking for oil that came from decaying trees that could grow in arctic cold?
HMMMM... another topic NOT discussed in global warming classes I bet!

Would you believe we've been pumping oil from the artic circle for decades?

 

[California Girl]

How about we teach kids how to evaluate both sides of an issue and decide for themselves. Radical, I know.

 

[BlindBoo]

Did you know back in the early 90's they were pushing that we were entering an ice age?

Prove it. Who is 'they'. Now I do remember that Time published an article back in the 70's the speculated that might be happening...

Another Ice Age? - TIME

I don't recall anything in Scientific American or anything like that.

The 1990's you say......

 

[Katzndogz]

Climate change is a hoax and it is time to start teachin children that global warming does not cause asteroids nor tsunamis.

 

[Stephanie]

Dear me, the little troll has it's panties all in a bunch again?
now she wants to tell states what they should teach their children

anyone get tired of lakhotas stupid shit?
