Because education is bad, and only certain viewpoints are allowed. Can’t have Wrongthink, you know (via Jo Nova)
(Science Daily) “At least one in three teachers bring climate change denial into the classroom, claiming that many scientists believe climate change is not caused by humans†says NCSE programs and policy director Josh Rosenau.
As Jo notes, how is this possible after all these decades of spreading awareness and stuff? But, wait, it gets worse!
Worse, half of the surveyed teachers have allowed students to discuss the supposed ‘controversy’ over climate change without guiding students to the scientifically supported conclusion.†Scarier still: three out of five teachers were unaware of, or actively misinformed about, the near total scientific consensus on climate change.
God no! Allowing discussion in an institution of learning? How dare they! Jo goes on to note
Repeat after me: Science is the study of opinion polls.
In the world of the Cult of Climastrology, it is all based on opinions, manufactured consensus, and manufactured data and computer models. It has almost nothing to do with science. If it did, the people who tell us it’s a crisis would act like it’s a crisis in their own lives.
