As global temperatures rise, children must be central climate change debates
Science Daily ^ | May 4, 2016

Rising temperatures, rising sea levels and the increasing likelihood of extreme weather will all alter children's lives and the lives of their own children. And yet, children are largely left out of discussions about appropriate responses to climate change, according to a journal released by Princeton University and the Brookings Institution.

The findings in this issue have clear implications for policymakers and researchers trying to tackle the many challenges that climate change poses:

* Policies must be developed to prepare and adapt in the face of inevitable climate change. States, cities and communities throughout the world must promote preparedness and resilience.

* Additional public health investments and interventions are needed to educate people about the risks climate change poses to children and to protect individuals and communities from its effects.

* More research across the entire spectrum of disciplines is needed, from improving climate science and climate modeling to better measuring climate change impacts and identifying possible adaptation strategies to developing new methods for effective decision making in the face of long time horizons and deep uncertainty.

The fellow in that picture would be quite jealous of how well our very own propaganda ministry has the populace fooled.

Children emit CO2; a deadly gas contributing to global warming.

So the Gorebel warmists have fallen back to the emotional “for the children” position. Kids as human shields is despicable.

Additional public health investments and interventions are needed to educate people about the risks climate change poses to children and to protect individuals and communities from its effects.

Since Florida's already 'hotter' than the projected changes for the next 200 years, why not send the kids to Disney World in the Summer... It would be cheaper than 'health investment and interventions to educate'.

Or we could save even more by telling kids to wear light colored clothes and puts lots of ice in their drinks.

It’s always “for the children”! One of the phrases used along with words like “racist” and “homophobe” that are suppose to stop any further discussion.

“He alone, who owns the youth, gains the future.”

“The state must declare the child to be the most precious treasure of the people. As long as the government is perceived as working for the benefit of the children, the people will happily endure almost any curtailment of liberty and almost any deprivation.”

You guys went Nazi, and that’s understandable, but my first thought was of Stalinism and the kids that were recruited to spy on their own parents, and neighbors.

Those kids were instrumental in getting a lot of people murdered and sowing the seeds of fear in that society.

Is it any wonder why the elites want control of our children? They’d do the exact same thing to us if they could get away with it.

And where do these “children” get THEIR “global warming” knowledge from? America-hating, commie lib “teachers”? It’s all about the money. Just tell the “children” that the global warmers are only after more of mommy and daddy’s money. They’ll understand better.
