My high school daughter likes to ask teacher’s questions.... have them explain for example: How the Romans were able to grow wine in Scotland for example, since it’s far too cold now.
That way she isn’t “outed” as a naysayer lol

To the question Do ALL scientists believe that CO2 causes global warming? there is a documented answer: The Petition Project Statement , signed by 31,487 Americans with university degrees in science – including 9,029 PhDs.

• The purpose of the Petition Project is to demonstrate that the claim of “settled science” and an overwhelming “consensus” in favor of the hypothesis of human-caused global warming and consequent climatological damage is wrong. No such consensus or settled science exists. As indicated by the petition text and signatory list, a very large number of American scientists reject this hypothesis.

My name appears in the list of Petition signers from Massachusetts.

Science is seeking the truth through experiment and rational thought. Distorting Science for political ends is corrupt, and often leads to human misery.

I wish your 5th grader great success in his school work, especially in his study of (my great loves) science and math.

I’m 47. I remember encountering global cooling stuff sometime in grade school. It would be instructive to have copies of the materials - books, pamphlets - we read back then to show kids now.

If anyone knows where to find stuff like this I could use it for my 9-year old. Along with civics/gov’t texts from the day too.
