Climate groups oppose changes to W.Va. science standards

At the request of state school board member Wade Linger, who said he doesn’t believe human-influenced climate change is a “foregone conclusion,” the teaching requirements concerning climate change were altered before the board adopted them last month. The teaching requirements are part of a raft of new standards based on the national Next Generation Science Standards blueprint.The changes, for example, added “and fall” after “rise” to a proposed standard requiring that sixth-graders “ask questions to clarify evidence of the factors that have caused the rise in global temperatures over the past century.”

G*d, would I love to debate the climate change dorks.

The sight of real physics destroying these marshmallow majors would be most pleasing to the discerning individual.

The “standards” appear to me to be designed to indoctrinate. Apparently the Alarmists think indoctrination of children is their right.

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, which has released dire reports about climate change impacts with a more than 95 percent certainty that humans are the main cause, states on its website that the coming and going of Earth’s ice ages is greatly linked to these orbital changes, but adds that since the start of the industrial period around 1750 the “human impact on climate during this era greatly exceeds that due to known changes in natural processes, such as solar changes and volcanic eruptions.”

Ummm, and how did they prove this?

Todays kids will have to spend more time in school than their predecessors because a significant amount of that time will be required to un-learn the liberish that was forced on them in their progressive-liberal grade schools.

They took a vote.

The Pinkos won.

Check out the so-called “scientists” on this panel.

Then Google the site with the petition signed by many many more REAL scientists countering the clains contained within the UN document.

Compare the credentials ( and numbers) of the true scientists as opposed to the UN jokesters.

Enjoy.

OK!! Everybody pay attention!

Lesson for today:

1. The sun is 1,300,000 times as big as the earth.

2. The sun is a ball of fire that controls the climates of all its planets.

3. The earth is one of the sun’s planets.

4. The earth is a speck in comparison to the size of the sun.

5. Inhabitants of the earth are less than specks.

Study Question: How do less-than-specks in congress plan to control the sun?

“Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change” is a group of bureaucrats. They don't have to prove nothin’. Fall in line peasant.
