EDITORIAL: By the book on warming

Here.

Excerpt:

Some of the science curriculum in this country's schools would be better described as junk environmentalism. At an early age, kids are taught that Earth is in peril, that most of the cute animals that filled their first picture books are dying off -- and that their wasteful standard of living is to blame. Such unbalanced lessons, devoid of economic or political context, help churn out waves of young eco-soldiers who believe capitalism and property rights are evil; that job-killing, heavy-handed regulation is needed to save the planet.

This type of instruction had crept into every classroom long before the greens grabbed global warming as their principal cause. Now the environmental lobby and their allies in politics are trying to stuff their climate change dogma into textbooks and lesson plans.
