The Heartland Institute sent a round of 25,000 books to science teachers across the U.S. Knowing Heartland, the book Why Scientists Disagree About Global Warming is loaded with dangerous material — peer reviewed references, graphs with both axes, stuff like that. Because it will have been checked, cross checked and subjected to twenty years of non-stop criticism, it will be packed with facts. And that’s why the Climate Religion is so terribly, awfully scared of it.
The NSTC took the extraordinary step of writing to teachers and naming all the errors they could find, which was none. In lieu of that, they said it was false information anyway because, hey, they could still spell both words.
NSTC warns of an unprecedented attack:
David L. Evans (no relation) sets out his best three reasons:
“First, scientists don’t disagree about climate change or its causes,”
- What consensus? Less than half of climate scientists themselves agree with the IPCC “95%” certainty.
- The “97% consensus” is a marketing ploy some journalists (and science teachers) will fall for.
“Second, labeling propaganda as science does not make it so.
- Exactly, just what I was thinking. How long before science teachers realize that the people who are afraid to read books are the ones pushing the propaganda?
Third, science teachers are the critical bastion in the war against reason. And the special interests know it.”
- So true. And the special interests marched right through education 30 years ago. How many science teachers know the scientific method? Aristotelian reasoning?
- Well some still do, and they’ll find the book an excellent resource.
Right now, the NSTC needs to hear from people who do know what the scientific method is, and who can explain how empirical evidence does not come from a climate model.
Inside Climate News found Brandie Freeman, an environmental science and chemistry teacher who won a National Science Teachers Association STEM award. So apparently the best of the best. So what did she do when she was given a free science book that disagreed with the dogma? She was insulted.
“We’re not novices,” Freeman said. “We’re science teachers, this is what we do for a living.”
…call her professionally insulted then.
Freeman, did, at least read the book, to her credit. Though perhaps because she was never taught how to reason, she fights back with argument from authority and ad hom attacks, thinking that mentioning ISIS, The Koch brothers, and Exxon tells us something about the atmosphere.
And her best advice for learning climate science? Watch Leonardo DiCaprio:
“To help my students visually understand the global urgency of this issue, I utilize the documentary Before the Flood in my climate unit. “
She advises people not to burn the book because that will cause global climate change. At least she is not a hypocrite.
Its quite plain that these so called scientists are nothing but a bunch of little hitlers after all the nzis burned books and and are we looking at a FARINHEIGHT 451 senario will they send their firemen with flamethrowers to burn down whole libraries? Looks to me like they need to quit calling themselves scienists an call themselves Politican Scinists like like the Union of Concerned Scienists CSPI, and the rest of the crack-pots like Bill Nye and David Suzuki
The call of the spurwing plover is a shrill staccato rattle, often heard at night.
As much as I think the whole climate change movement is rife with fraud, The key words in the title are: “Why Scientists Disagree…” This alone is a valid and critical avenue of discussion, especially with school children, as it acknowledges the scientific method and the respect and decorum that OUGHT to be present in scientific debate.
Of course the eco-left does not believe in freedom of speech and especially scientific debate when it does not suit their agenda so we should not be surprised.
For socialists, Climate Change is the holiest of holies – a web of contrivances and fraud, intended only to grant them unearned power. Any discussion that includes doubts or contrary evidence is treated as sacrilege and heresy. This is the antithesis of true science.
Easy to understand the left’s admiration of dictatorships, they don’t have to compete for votes. Those heathen deplorables voted in their self interest and locked Robin Hood out.
The entire enviromental movments based upon lies,junk sceince and fake evedence DDT was banned becuase of Racheal Carsons lies and junk science and Greenpeace want to ban Chlorine used to make drinking water safer and is in certian medicines as well then the Rainforest fruad(Remember that)or the Rainforests are the Lungs of the earth(Poppycock)We need to maroon these eco-wackos in the Rainforests let them geta real close look at nature and natives who dont care for tree huggers/tree sitters
