Remember, kids, adjust the data until it supports your conclusion. That’s how real climate scientists do it.

Funny, I was taught the scientific method.

Science uses the scientific method.

Climate “science” does not use the scientific method.

Instead climate “science” uses climate anecdotes.

Anecdotes are not science.

First, mathematics through Calculus II, then Physics for Scientists and Engineers...then one has something to build upon.

Once you could learn to think like a scientist by simply reading National Geographic every month. The OPPOSITE will happen now.

If you start with stats that have been carefully screened to support your viewpoint it sure is easy to make sure no other viewpoint is taught. Same goes for those “peer reviewed” journal articles.

it's a whole lot easier to understand the data that supports anthropogenic climate change

No science here.

They should understand the data. Period. Assuming that it supports anything at all screws up the process.

"The intent of this program was to show students science," says Jim Ekins, an educator for University of Idaho Extension who helps coordinate the project. "As they become more science literate, it's a whole lot easier to understand the data that supports anthropogenic climate change."

This is exactly backwards. The more you learn of science, the more dubious do these chicken little claims about the sky falling appear.

Water Vapor controls the temperature on Planet Earth. All other claims are just bullsh*t.

Science does not support the power grabbing bullsh*t known as "global warming." It refutes it. Stop lying about science.

Possible addition to the caption: “Paul Joseph Goebbels was a German Nazi politician and Reich Minister of Propaganda of Nazi Germany from 1933 to 1945. As Berlin fell He ordered his six children killed then shot his wife and himself.”

Another reason to home school.

Meanwhile, there was a thread here on FR the other day about 33,000 scientists who say “climate change” is a hoax.

“As they become more science literate, it’s a whole lot easier to understand the data that supports anthropogenic climate change.”

Does it also make it easier to understand data that does not support anthropogenic climate change?

NOT North Idaho!!! That area of the state is a conservative bastion. I so hope parents in this area fight this. Yikes!

"...she's learned that in recent decades, the snowpack in the very spot she and her classmates dug into has trended downward."

That's not "teaching kids to think like scientist." Only a quack scientist would limit their study of "climate" to "recent decades." True scientist would study hundreds and thousands of years.

Thinking like a modern scientist is easy: just think money.

What a joke!!

And yes, I am a geologist.
