It is advocacy to fill the finite educational time of school children with cretinist bunk.

They have become the enemy. It would be one thing if scientists worked with local and state governments as a rule to implement practical solutions to problems that don’t impinge on personal liberty, but this is not the case.

Any before anybody tries to refute my point, I note that there are 45 posts under the tag of “teabagging morons”. Charming.

“Do you think we should make war on [X], and if so, how?”
“I’m not a military strategist, so I’m not going to get into that issue.”
End of campaign.

“Most climate scientists are concerned that if we see a global surface warming of about 2.0 degrees Celsius by mid century, there would be severe negative consequences.”

By all means, Greg, let’s make sure to “teach the controversy” with our questions.
