Textbooks are often deemed authoritative sources of information necessary for education. These learning materials include the latest scientific findings to reflect societal changes and show how knowledge has grown over time. They play a critical role in how educators tackle certain topics to educate their students in classroom settings.
Since curricular content has been shown to influence students’ knowledge of environmental issues, it’s essential to analyze how textbooks frame and discuss the pressing issue of climate change.
But, as it turns out, climate change coverage hasn’t changed drastically in science textbooks over the last 50 years, despite how much scientists have learned about the phenomena currently affecting and will continue to affect the entire planet.
Overall, it’s necessary to improve climate change coverage in textbooks so that students can understand how environmental issues shape everyday life as they know it. But at the very least, says Henderson, textbook authors and publishers should have a background in climate change science.
“Creating instructional materials is a very complex and difficult job; we’re certain that there’s no intention to underrepresent environmental issues,” says Landin. “We hope this study will help authors and publishers in the future. The easiest approach is to review the balance of topics and the expertise of authors of introductory biology materials.”

Never forget that the whole "CO2 global warming" scam was invented by the neo-malthusian Club of Rome as a tool to force a drastic die-off of human populations. This is only the beginning. Ultimately, YOU are the carbon they want to reduce.
Meanwhile, trust the climate oligarchs to find private profit in public policy.
Popular Science or Popular Pseudoscience?
Idol Worship. We need to destroy the idols.
And yet the severity of the lying hyperbole and bullcrap never ceases...
I just listened to Joe Bastardi’s Saturday Summary and he was laughing all the way through his report over the global warming fools. Yes, its going to warm up a bit now in the Eastern regions, but another blast is coming mid-January.
Oh, wait. Will the burning itself cause Climate Change?
I might have to rethink this.
You think maybe it's because the science doesn't support the whole climate change scare?
🤔 “...severity of the global climate crisis....”. 😂😂😂🖕. Fidiots! Anyone seen our Yosemite glacier? I know it was around here someplace......
It can’t be scientifically proven, Popular Science. Cut the crap!
If memory serves me correctly, in “Star Trek: The Motion Picture” V’ger wanted to destroy humanity because the “carbon-based” life forms were preventing V’ger from communicating with the creator.
Appears the Catholic Church forgot it was just at a f’ing movie.
There is no “climate crisis”.
It is all a scam.
50 years ago it was global cooling that was going to kill us all.
I hate these people.
Well then,
The only answer is to burn all books, and people, that don’t profes climate change theology.
/s
The fact these lunatics changed “Global Warming” to “Climate Change” shows how BS their beliefs are. Wasn’t there global cooling in the 60s?
That is because climatechangeglobalwarmingglobalcooling is a hoax.
> There is no “climate crisis”. It is all a scam. <
Yep. Unfortunately, this scam is very different from previous ones in that this scam cannot be questioned, ever.
You want to hold a public debate on the social security crisis? Sure, go right ahead.
But try to hold a debate on the “climate crisis” and you will be denounced. Protestors would shut your event down.
It’s all very Stalinist.
