Scared Green: Sustainability Lies We Teach Our Children

“Without Pharrell, our planet would not survive.” So says Marquis Jamont, one of 1,200 middle school children who, according to CBS News, trudged through the snow on the first day of spring to see musician Pharrell Williams talk about climate change at the UN. The event kicked off the meeting of the UN’s Open Working Group on new Sustainable Development Goals.

No disrespect to Mr. Williams, but the planet could survive without him and his “Happy” song. Likewise, the world could sustain itself without the goals being cooked up by transnational envirocrats in their endless rounds of meetings.

Pharrell’s appearance at the UN was orchestrated by the UN Foundation and MixRadio to project the message that “the next generation needs to pay attention to climate change.” He needn’t worry about that. From the moment he steps into kindergarten to the hour he graduates from college, Marquis will be trapped in an endlessly repeating loop of “climate change” messages.

Indoctrinate early and often. Phu-rell's dangerously huge carbon footprint is probably not mentioned anywhere. Will the youngsters ever awaken to see that their heroes are ZEE-rows and they've been lied to all their lives?

Lies? They would lie to children? Have they NO mercy?

The children grow up believing those lies, and when the real world gives them a fetch upside the head, they have no idea why they are being “picked on” by the Universe.

The Universe is a cruel and unforgiving place, where the only real crime is stupidity.

There are already 2 generations of Americans who have grown up with these lies. Most still believe them.

The lie our kids are being told is that man is causing climate change- when the reality is that man can’t possibly be causing it because our atmosphere only has 0.00137% of it as CO2 produced by man- 0.00137% can’t possibly be causing climate change- period- end of story- the science is settled- 0.00137% isn’t anywhere near enough to do ANYTHING to the climate- what little heat gets sent back to earth as a DIRECT result of MAN’S piddly amount of CO2 I nthe atmosphere is so small that it quickly gets overwhelmed by the actual temperature of the earth and reaches equilibrium almost instantly- only a very small fraction of that 0.00137% CO2 back radiates heat to earth- the other heat gets transferred out and away fro m earth where it too gets overwhelmed and cooled instantly

So little heat is making it’s way back to earth as a direct result of Man’s CO2 I n the atmosphere that scientists should be ASHAMED of themselves for LYING to us in such a blatant manner!

Pshhhh!
I teach my kids common sense economics. This energy costs more and is less reliable. Doesn’t that harm poor people?
CO2 is .3% of the atmosphere, it’s called a trace gas. The world produces more on it’s own than us puny humans could ever do! Doesn’t it make sense to use cheaper cost for energy and fuel to help everyone?
My children understand. It really is just that simple.

My children are “anti-indoctrinated”.
They are homeschooled and armored up with the truth.

Awesome.
