Beam me to Planet Gore !
Wuss. He should have waited until the tyemperature would plunge to 1 F. Then the students could watch as the radiators froze and exploded. And show them the $50,000 repair bill. Now that is gutsy!
Lucky for them no one I know was subjected to that ridiculous display of political correctness gone wild!
When damned fools are in charge of education, is it any wonder the future is doomed to become a wasteland?
The parents, the media, and many commenters are blaming this School Principal, rather than the "reduced energy usage" mindset that he has (intentionally or unintentionally) EXPOSED for the insanity that it is.
All he did (whether he meant to or not) is present and make palpable the obvious consequences that follow from this kind of "carbon footprint" stupidity.
I'd say the day WAS a success -- or, rather, it would have been a success IF anyone had the sense to see what it means.
1. Obviously insane policy is pushed by brainwashed retards who constantly and consistently ignore the PLAIN and OBVIOUS consequences of such policy/ideology while refusing to admit that such consequences would NECESSARILY follow from full implementation of said policy/ideology.
2. Someone actually puts said policy/ideology INTO PRACTICE.
3. PLAIN and OBVIOUS consequences NECESSARILY follow.
4. Everyone: A) ignores that the situation is the PLAIN, OBVIOUS, and NECESSARY result of implementation of said policy/ideology; B) continues to endorse said PROVENLY INSANE policy/ideology; and, C) blames, and berates as an idiot, the person who put it into practice.
I feel like crying.
These people need to be made an example of, and soon. Dark night, lonely alley, cricket bat (it is England) and butcher knife, “no idea who dunnit” example.
Turn off the heat forever you environmental freek and freeze to death!!!
If all envirnomentalists would do the above it would solve all our problems!
Go lie down in a snowbank until you die you freeks!
Oh, it WAS a great lesson in “sustainability”. Although perhaps not the lesson he intended to teach. Most of those kids will think “bull$h!t” whenever they hear the word “sustainability” for the rest of their lives.
A lesson in the saying the road to hell is paved with good intentions. If you want to sacrifice then do so but do not force others to do it with you, especially children.
