You can read about how Hollywood and the education system are targeting kids with cilmate fears.
kyoto won’t but there are many working on an engineering solution
My all time favorite, specially for kids and the teachers that teach them.
If there is a question and answer session, have the youngster ask: “So, what’s the temperature SUPPOSED to be?”
Usually, the teacher will hem and haw a bit and remind the youngster that it’s all about continued warming......
Then, the youngster should repeat the previous question. Until they get a solid answer. A number.
Good luck!!
And so what if the sea level does creep up over the next 100, 200, or 300 years? People will just have to stop hitting up the US government for insurance for their beachfront property, that’s all.

not that simple. you’re talking about entire cities and also islands getting swamped. You’re talking about ports and all the trade via ships
Hi Clint! I now have the Global Warming polar bears as my un-pc PC wallpaper. :)
Cool! I’m gunna do that too!
My favorite place:
www.junkscience.com
Here is a simple demonstration:
1) place 2 ice cubes on 2 different saucers
2) Note the temperature of the ice cubes
3) Note the outside temperatures both in direct sunlight and in the shade
4) take students ouside on a sunny day and place 1 saucer in direct sunlight and the other in the shade.
5) have students observe and record their findings and observations.
Next experiment:
1) fill 1 large bowl with water and measure the liquid volume. Then place into freezer until completely frozen.
2)Fill 1 large bowl with ice cubes of a known liquid volume, then place into a large bowl of water, also with a known liquid volume. (make sure original volume of water does not over spill after placing in the ice cubes.
3) place 1 bowl in direct sunlight and the other in the shade.
4) have students observe and record observations. Leave both outside for a week and take measurements twice each day at the same time.
Results should show 1)the effects of direct sunlight vs. in direct heating: 2)what happens to a body of water as ice melts, & 3) the effects of evaporation to the same bodies of water...
To add some variation(which is the key to weather modeling)have the students set up a temperature station at each of their homes and record on a twice daily basis the different temperatures at each location. Basic experiments the kids can have fun with...
To bad it doesn’t move when you set it as wallpaper.
The following link is a 100+ analysis by two German physicists. It has a lot of equations, but they have written it in a style that allows you to understand their analysis even if you have nothing but high school algebra.

Their conclusion is that there is no such thing as “greenhouse warming” and that it is impossible to even remotely model earth’s climate with sufficient accuracy to reach the conclusions being pushed.

The subject is too difficult for small children to understand, that’s actually the beauty of the hoax since many adults don’t do science. A good way to get a grip on what is really real and what is made up is to watch some videos.
A selection is here ...

These are probably too technical, but very informative videos. The best for the layman is the “The Great Global Warming Swindle” The video is being pursued by the hoaxers and is hard to find, but it is available. It was originally broadcast on England's Ch4, just search.
A simple question, if the science is settled why are there so many questions? Science doesn’t work this way, the hysterics are not part of science. What man knows about global warming and climate change could be written on the head a pin. What we don’t know and don't understand would take huge libraries -- No amount of arm waving, no amount of computer models will change that. Computer models which respond to whatever fudge factors are put in as boundary conditions are not science. Our entire "climate prediction is based on these computer models of the future".
Become informed, don't just buy the tax increase to control the weather and pretend that that is climate science. How would you know. I say we give them ten years, that way there will be enough people still alive to recognize the hoax for what it is, the clock statred with the first UN-IPCC prediction 20 years ago -- you decide how they are doing.
I can’t get it to move either.
Tell me if you figure it out.
Go to google video and search “the great global warming swindle”
Excellent, easy to understand film that takes algore’s movie appart.
Take the global Warming test and have your kids do it too. Very enlightening and very informative. It is about 12 questions that give you the answers with detailed information and graphics etc. VERY GOOD....check it out.

Someone brought this up in church on Sunday. “We all have to be careful how we treat the planet and spew global gasses because the UN report has the US being the biggest polluter..” I tuned him out after that.
Other planets and their moons are also warming (e.g. receding polar ice caps on Mars, Triton’s atmosphere warming, Uranus’s atmosphere warming) so the fact the Earth might be warming doesn’t prove humans are responsible. That would take identifying the cause for these other bodies to warm, and proving that mechanism can’t operate here (doubtful) or that the mechanism by which the other places are warming is also in effect here, but would have a magnitude insufficient to explain the Earth’s temp rise. (Also doubtful.)
Yup, to increase real estate values. See my profile, point #8.
