Let's see what the Global Warming As Caused By Man toady's are up to (I usually call them disciples, but, that seems like a nice word, not to be used for crazy people)

London (CNSNews.com) – Students at state-funded schools in Britain will learn about global warming, the government announced this week — and former Vice President Al Gore's provocative views on the issue will get maximum exposure.

As part of the new school curriculum for 11- to 14-year-olds, the government said students will be taught about how the earth's climate is changing and about the importance of "sustainable development."

(Other new subjects being introduced include Arabic and Mandarin, healthy cooking and the history of Britain's involvement in the transatlantic slave trade.)

One would think that CNS News writer Kevin McCandless was doing his best Ann Coulter! However, he isn't kidding. Check this BBC opinion to see.

A government spokeswoman said Friday that all state schools and all faith-based school getting state funding — most of them do — are required to follow the curriculum. Private schools are "strongly encouraged" to do so.

A spokesman for the UK government's Qualifications and Curriculum Authority (QCA) told Cybercast News Service that under the new plan, teachers will not be given a set number of hours each week to teach about global warming.

The teachers will be given activities and such to engage the students in, as well. Now, if I am a 11-14 year old and taken to an exhibit at a museum about the last Ice Age and previous warm ages, I might very well question what the hell Al Gore is talking about, especially since every public school classroom is going to get a copy of Mein Kamph An Inconvenient Truth.

The way I see it, this is another subject that youths are being subjected to that is indoctrination, rather then open minded learning. And we wonder why test scores keep going down and so many kids are not prepared for the real world. The teaching of "climate change" will not be even handed, showing all sides and all data. Some shows global warming, some doesn't. Some shows Man's interference, some doesn't. Which do you think will be taught?

And, how soon will the subject be exported and installed in schools throughout Europe, Canada, and the United States? You can see it coming, with GWACBM zealots here (read Leftards) pushing for all schools, even private, to require course work and adherence to climate change.

Meanwhile, heavy snow continues to bury NE New York, and it is bitterly cold, with at least 20 related deaths, in the states around the Great Lakes.

Rob Burke ditched a lucrative and prestigious corporate legal career for the opportunity to run a car wash.

A dubious career choice? Not for Burke, 43, of Morristown, who sees the environmentally sensitive business as his contribution to fighting global warming and the greenhouse effect.

And people wonder why the zealots are thought of as nuts, and why so many people do not take environmentalists seriously.

LONDON (Reuters) – Airline tycoon Richard Branson announced on Friday a $25 million prize for the first person to come up with a way of scrubbing greenhouse gases out of the atmosphere in the battle to beat global warming.

Great, a way to kill all life on earth by damaging the necessary balance of atmospheric gasses. However, the likely responses will be "duh."

In the Precambrian era, it is supposed that the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere was 100 times higher then it is today. Yet life began. How about that?
