California Is Now the Third State to Mandate Scaring Our Kids to Death

Governor Gavin Newsom has just signed into law a mandated climate change curriculum in all of California’s public schools, joining Connecticut and New Jersey.

All three states are adopting “Next Generation Science Standards”, which is billed as a new way of teaching science.

“There is this push towards anti-intellectualism, anti-science … anti-reason, and I didn’t want local boards of education to have the power to overturn the curriculum and say, ‘climate change is too political,’” Connecticut state Rep. Christine Palm, the vice chair of the environment committee, says.

She claims “vigilante groups of parents (are) coming in and saying… they don’t want kids learning about these subjects because it’s too threatening to their delusional way of life.” Remember a long time ago when the left wanted MORE parental involvement in schools?

Under this new curriculum, students will be told rising global temperatures will cause flooding and coastal erosion. Hurricanes, floods, droughts, and heat waves, can disrupt food systems and ways of living. Climate change will be linked to such health risks as respiratory disease and heat stroke. This isn’t science; it’s ideology. These are the same fanatics who told us thirty years ago that the world was overpopulated and everyone had to stop having kids – right now.

Reading comprehension will relate to climate change, math word problems will touch on climate change, and climate change will be incorporated into science lessons with experiments and field trips.

This borders on child abuse. Already, a 2022 Blue Shield of California survey found that 80% of California youths between ages 14 and 24 already claim to experience “climate distress” — a range of emotions that include grief, anger, anxiety, and hopelessness.
