Climate change is sabotaging education for American students – and it’s only getting worse
Caroline PrestonSun, September 19, 2021, 5:00 AM·
The wildfires that ripped through California towns torched school buildings and postponed the start of school as students and teachers were left homeless. A deadly deluge in Tennessee flooded schools and delayed classes as rescue teams searched for dozens of people who’d gone missing. Students around the country were dismissed early due to heat waves and Hurricane Ida, while smoke settled over towns and cities as far east as Philadelphia, sending kids inside for recess.
This summer brought not only a resurgence of the coronavirus but also some of the starkest evidence yet of the devastating toll that climate change will take on the planet – and on the lives and learning of children. As humans continue to unleash greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, fires, hurricanes, floods, droughts and heat waves are intensifying, in some cases forcing kids to flee their homes and classrooms and shattering their sense of security.

COVID-19 is surging, amid some of the starkest evidence yet of the toll climate change will take on the planet and on the lives and learning of kids.
I wonder if this "caroline preston" has given up her addiction to guzzling fossil fuels. I wonder if this "caroline preston" voluntarily pays more taxes for the planet.
Lol
Sigh
Never mind. Global climate change that the left don't do anything about is effecting AMERICAN STUDENTS.
