The last homework assignment in that class had students logging into the website http://www.zerofootprintkids.com to calculate their "carbon footprint".
I cant help but believe that this was an intentional attempt to indoctrinate our kids that climate change is caused by man. According to my student, the word "theory" was never mentioned in class.
I immediately emailed a CEASE and DESIST order to Dr Hatchell, Mr Scott, and Mrs Oltrogge the reading teacher. Having learned that the UN has OK'd China's request to sell aborted children as carbon credits - and that this is a provision in the next Kyoto accord - which apparently now has Obama's support - I objected on religious, moral, and ethical grounds to our schools teaching that children must die to save the trees.
What are the consequences of teaching this message to our children? What is the good in questioning whether they bring lunch in a paper sack, or how many cans of pop they open?
Indeed the District's own policy INB[6192] on presenting controversial subject matter states: "The teacher has the responsibility to be objective and present all sides of an issue."
Clearly, even to the most casual observer, that website fails to be objective, fails to present truth, and is insufficient for teaching a course in critical thinking. The fact that that was the only website visited during the module is equally maddening. My attempt to present evidence to the contrary - or to get her to present it - was resisted, and I now have reservations about the critical thinking skills both presented in her class, and exemplified by her. I already know these skills are non-existent (or at least well hidden) at NOAA and CIRES - everyone knows by now they only publicize what will keep the government funding spicket open. They exist to perpetuate this global warming myth.
So I left Mr Scott with the most impressive "packet" I found on the subject. It is a speech given on the Senate floor back in 2006 by the chairman of the US Senate select committee on the Environment. If you have the slightest doubt about man's contribution to climate change- READ THIS DOCUMENT! http://epw.senate.gov/
My hope now is that other parents get wise to this attempt at indoctrination.

Let's keep it scientific then: Anthropogenic Global Warming (AGW) is a theory (hypothesis). It is an unproven theory. What you do with theories is put them to the test with scientific observations. Let's see what data points we now have:
1) Average annual temperatures have not surpassed 1998 (NOAA) (University of Alabama)
2) Average annual temperatures are now trending downward since 1998 (NOAA) (University of Alabama)
3) Ocean temperatures have not risen since 2000 when the 3000 Argo buoys were launched. The buoys even show a slight decrease in ocean temperatures
4) The Arctic ice froze to February levels by December 07, there are 1mm more sq km than before (previous was 13mm sq km)
5) The Arctic ice is 20cm thicker than "normal" (whatever that is)
6) All polar bear pods are stable or growing (NOAA/PBS)
7) Mount Kilimanjaro is not melting because of global warming, rather "sublimation"
8) The Antarctic is not "melting", it is growing in most places, the sloughing off at the edges is normal as the ice mass grows
9) The majority of the Antarctic is 8 degrees below "normal" (again, whatever that is)
10) The coveted .7 degree rise in temperatures over the last 100 years has been wiped out with last years below "normal" temperatures (NOAA coolest winter since 2001)
11) Al Gores film was just deemed "propaganda" in a court of law in the UK as many points could not be substantiated by scientists
12) It was also just reveled that some of the footage in Als film was CGI. The ice shelf collapse was from the movie The Day After Tomorrow (ABC)
13) One of the scientists that originally thought that CO2 preceded the warming has now found with new data that the CO2 rise follows the warming (Dr David Evans)
14) August 2008 was the first time since 1913 there were no sun spots.
15) The Medieval Warm Period was warmer than the 20th century (no SUVs)
16) Many scientists are now predicting 30 years of cooling.
17) The greenhouse effect is real, our small contribution to it cannot even be measured
18) Several publications, including those that are warmist have recently written that the natural cycles of the earth may mask AGW. Give me a break.
19) 31,000 scientist have signed a petition against AGW!
Over the last ten years the world, along with China (1 new coal fired plant coming on line each week) and India spewing millions of additional tons of CO2 in to the atmosphere these results should be impossible.
Now, please be so kind to give me one piece of observable evidence that man is causing "global warming".
And, when will Al Gore humbly give his Noble Prize back as he is a complete fraud?
way to go, maddie....You are, indeed, a thinker! Great research!
