Teaching pupils about climate change is completely bizarre. They’re not supposed to worry about political decisions they’re at least old enough to vote.
Truly terrifying that this highly politicised ideological propaganda is being taught even in language classes. Whatever happened to the utility of un cafe et une croissante s’il vous plait? Are you only expected to converse with the French about ‘le climat’ these days rather than their amazing food – or the footy, for example? So sad.
(One correction though – the UK’s climate is described as temperate maritime and is not ‘extreme’. Go anywhere away from coasts into continental land masses and the weather does become more extreme – compare London with Berlin or Warsaw, for example.)
Pure indoctrination.

Another excellent piece Jack. Good to know all is not lost in future generations. Well done keep up the good work.
I first became aware of the climate change fallacy when I began reading Mark Steyn around 2008-2010. At the time I was teaching English as a foreign language and I realised to my horror that climate change propaganda was all through the course books I was using to teach. Every text book has a chapter on the environment. No wonder, really, seeing they are published by Oxford University Press and the British Council.
These people managed to capture a generation of people who were to become politicians by begin anti-establishment and thus (viewed from the eyes of a teenager) somehow cool and important. I’ve already encountered people in their twenties who simply roll their eyes when they hear the word climate because they simply can’t stand it anymore. And there’s more of this to come. The COPsers are digging their own graves with this approach because they’re doing exactly what the people who lost out against them did in order to fight them.
Hear hear. Keep fighting the good fight, Jack.
