New Jersey public school students will be the first in the country required to learn about climate change while in the classroom starting this school year.

"The districts themselves are able to design whatever it is that the way they want to implement and interpret this new education standard," said Murphy. "I want to make sure that the next generation of students and those who come after have the skill set necessary to be able to win and succeed at the incredible jobs that are going to be available as we all shift towards a greener economy," said Murphy.

"No one seems to doubt it after this past year," Biden said. "Choosing which child to feed and wondering whether they will survive. This is the human cost of climate change. And it is growing."

Yeah, right after their done with the CRT and grooming courses!

Forced propaganda. Nice. Climate change is a hoax.

ClimateScam CO2 has only increased eight one-thousandths of one percent since the industrial age. 0.008%

While Florida and Texas ban books That just about covers it

Well I guess it’s better than learning how to shove things in their ass like they do now

Climate change is not widely accepted by science. It is more something that is being pushed by Davos. More like doctors and virus. Not allowed to offer their opinion and remedies they know exist. So if not widely accepted how can it be tought in school.

PLEASE TRY TEACHING READING WRITING AND ARITHMETIC !!!

About Time!!!!! They are the ones who will live with it And possibly make meaningful Changes. (Unlike a part of the current generations that don't even believe it is happening.

You spelled indoctrinated wrong

Good. Academic curricula needs to keep up with the world and teach critical thinking skills, too: 👉🏼How to vet sources of info 👉🏼How to cross reference info Adding more financial literacy, media literacy, and civics/govt content also would be good. Support PublicEducation

🤡🤡🤡🤡 More Lies

Teach em’ about that big ol’ hole in the sky you can’t see 😂😂😂 nothing like fake science and fear mongering to create compliant lil’ believers

🤮

Wait, I thought they said no religion in the school system!?!?! So much for that idea.

What is happiness does it exist or does it not, happiness is contentness

What They never talked about the different seasons and the ice age etc? WTF

Now that I support!!!! Not 👇

Not good

Good! 👍

Unfortunately for America, you can bet your a.s that these school kids will have an 'extremely biased Leftist' view forced upon them. Extremely Leftist teachers totally dominate our schools. America is in deep doo-doo.

I learned about it in my classroom in the late 1970s. If that garbage treasonous B movie actor had not tricked people into voting for being robbed, President Carter was moving toward a green energy future. Republicans instead chose pockets full of oil soaked cash over the planet

hoax being taught

AC is broke… Climate change

Will they learn Reading, wRiting and aRithmetic as well?

Don’t care

It starts at the end of the Ice Age.

Climate change? Oh, you mean, weather.

🔴* MAGA would call that ...Critical Weather Theory, another made-up lunatic term. 🙁°

Hey, why don't we change the climate and seed the clouds? I'd really like an answer to that. Those students' time would be better spent cleaning up trash and plastic, and planting trees. Lots of trees. Why is this also ignored?

They’ve been pushing climate alarmism in school since the 80’s.

So they are teaching meteorology?

Welcome to the 21st century .

Climate change is merely a global slush fund 💰

Introduce communism you mean

🤓

Why is it a requirement? Would it be better if it is an elective instead.

AMEN

More indoctrination...

But we learned about climate change in the late 1990s and early 2000s in earth science and the climate unit in biology...

MahsaAmini

Great call. They should. All States need to add it to the curriculum.

Great. They can learn about it right after they learn about anal sex. Ridiculous state.

There was a misconception that they had better schools up north. How sad.

How long before the right bans this?

Good idea as long as you're willing to teach climate history as well as the the silly science we have heard for 50yrs

Homeschool to avoid the public indoctrination system.

fomocapdao programming

Homeschool your kids.

teaching lies. The truth is earth has been warming since the end of the ice age (before oil and cars). Why? Because stars get brighter over time. So unless we can control the Sun, the oceans will eventually boil no matter what we do

Indoctrination of the children.

Never gonna happen.

👍👍

The new duck and cover

Another reason to homeschool your children

Chapter 1: How Capitalism is Evil And How Karl Marx Was Right

What? They have been teaching climate change for 50+yrs!

This is going to trigger a lot of those that freak out over the Theory of Evolution

Climate Change, yes What about Civics & American History?

cschultzphoto To be fair, Earth Science and geophysics are taught across the country. I learned about climate change in the 90s. It’s not new science or something radical; it’s just the carbon cycle. Studying data today simply shows acceleration of earth systems and increased global heating.

Why don’t you mention what else they will be required to learn?

Why?

Because climate change is something we don't yet have a definitive cause for ( realist do) we will blame the people living in the Northern cold areas to stop being so successful. By throwing a wrench in the economy we can be better off. Al Bert Gore

Climate change is a manufactured concern

Leftists like to brainwash them while they’re young! By the time they are adults they will gladly hand their money over to the government to “fight climate”!

But still cannot build a house or fix a car. Nice Job jersey

Boy I’m sure that class will lead to a job 😳

How about civics and actual history and math? This bullshit is not real science and is hindering education. PS: Pakistan is under water because it is a benighted shithole with zero education and is a man made - NOT climate - disaster. Monsoons have flooded it for centuries.

Any environmental or earth science curriculum would address climate.

Keep spreading the propaganda and grooming the children. 🤡 🌎

DavidMuir NEEDS TO COVER IranProtests2022 THIS IS TERRIBLE JOURNALISM IF ONE CANNOT REPORT ON “WORLD NEWS” iran MashaAmini

What do you think Science Class is 🤪Fakenews

Meaning in five to ten years climate change will be a 'real' thing. It's smart going after the kids. Even Hitler knew that.

Nope... it's not the first.

Monday Tuesday Earth Day 🌎 Thursday Friday Saturday Sunday Every city, town, nation, country. No school. No work. Plant trees, plant vegetables, plant plants. Pick up trash. Clean the water. Help our only home.. EARTH!! Every week forever, no more Wednesdays. Earth Days!

مهسا_امینی

Now just sit back and wait for the right-wing's heads to explode.

They will learn that a planet’s climate is always changing. I coulda told them that

Brainwashing for kids...pathetic losers.

Climate Change is the fastest growing cult religion. But let’s keep the separation of church and state.

Indoctrination of fake science

Well isn't that special, more fake science to screw up our future. It's long over due that we end government schools.

Great! Teach the about the Tooth Fairy too! Just as relevant.

Climate change isn't real.

Change climatechange all are waiting for

Wow, first school in the USA to learn about climate change? It’s 2022…impacts of climate change have been felt since the 1980s..and you all now teaching kids about it?

JamesSa75888275 First in the country? What

It’s called weather lol

I assume they will cover climate change over the last several thousand years so that the students can understand the natural cycles that occur regardless of carbon or anything else.

Feel free to sleep thru that class

Wrong. They taught us it in Montgomery County Public Schools in Maryland in the 90s. It's still there today. 6th grade.

The first? 🤔

Rule 1

Well, at least New Jersey has the right idea. I'm in the South, and they're still worried about whether or not slavery is going to be taught...

Conservatard complaints of Critical Weather Theory imminent.

In before republicans

New Jersey. 😆

A not of single plan by politicians will change the weather. But it will give them power and money over you...

Yes but there's a real possibility the female students will be wearing hijabs during class if cristofascists get their way

It’s absolutely hilarious seeing all the Old folks mad about this. Relax this is for the next generation of youth. They deserve a chance at a better and cleaner planet. All of yall will be 6ft under by then.

IT'S ABOUT DANG TIME!!!!!

GW a HOAX. Always: Follow the Money....

What grades?

Bio science learn the term.

Are they also going to teach the democrat party is the party of slavery segregation and the klan?

Excellent ! More science, less religion!

God help us, please teach math and english

Can't stop something that has been going since the beginning of time We haven't started it and can't stop it, so move on with your life

It is not lawful to teach a religion in a public school....

New Jersey, probably the state with the least amount of trees to clean the air. Makes sense.

Propaganda

🙄

We teach climate change as well. It’s called seasons.

How about something more useful, a personal finance class.

Well I will tell my children the truth about the climate when they get home!

You misspelled, “indoctrinated“.

In other words, New Jersey can teach kids their climate change religion but can't/won't allow God.

Why? Hopefully as a choice elective. Otherwise that’s ridiculousness!

I see you, NJ. Well done

Hope this is the first thing they learn:

How about teaching them to spell?

Sooo 1,875 genders and Man Bear Pig. And we wonder why we’re behind every industrialized nation in mathematics and science.

THERE IS NO CLIMATE CHANGE! Learn about HERBS, PLANTING AND HARVESTING ETC...

Another good reason why I moved out!

2 + 2 = 12 more years to live

Now we are talking but hopefully the point is turn off lights take quick showers keep the heat down wear a sweater you don’t need to be basking in a 70 degree room when it is 100 degrees outside make your own lunch to cut down on fast food waste material etc etc

Adding meteorology into there too? Requiring more sciences would be nice since so many of our college graduates can't even fathom simple biology.

Awesome. Why don’t we start with this astrophysicist:

I went to NJ public schools. Among the best in the country

All this will do is create more activists who will complain about something that will not be stopped for decades.

Man made climate change is a myth. Stop teaching lies to our children.

MAGA 🇺🇸 1776

That’s weird, we learned about the 4 seasons back in 2nd grade. Seems like nj is behind

I can disprove man made global warming in 2 words: Grand Canyon! CHECKMATE!

Those students should challenge their teachers and go to a survival class to learn how to live without electricity or gas and learn how to ride a bike .

Making them good little consumers.

When I was in school,I took something called 'Earth Science'. One thing I learned - climate changes. Sometimes it's really hot, sometimes it's really cold. I also learned there's not a damn thing we can do about it.

Hahaha, that will end well. Should be a short class.

This is why American school children are ranked at the bottom of educational rankings if developed countries. The left is destroying children and the country.

They buy 20% eff coal burning cars to replace 40% eff gas cars. Starve 350M people and permit Putin to own W Europe this winter by cutting off their natural gas supply. All over a theory which according to NASA is uncertain. The 0.2% measured effect is well below error margins.

What a waste of time. Jesus this is getting so ridiculous

Groomers

Climate change? What they talking about? I thought about those heat waves and they happened. I thought about the hurricanes and they happened. Nothing changes. It is all in my thinking

Propaganda class. Nice, Hitler would be proud

Propaganda.

So much for separation of church and state.

Study fake news

Now let’s add required age appropriate humane education to that. And start in Rio Grande Valley Texas, please.

Pathetic

Maybe NJ should be concentrating on Reading and math instead of ridiculous things like climate change and anal sex. Phil Murphy should be in prison!!!

Yup kids learning about cow farting hahaha cool

Can’t we just teach science?

LindaHu14367111 👏👏

yesss

What pro-globalism activist group is paying for the course materials?

Good to know how kids can learn about the reality of climate change.

This is a step in the right direction! If anything can save our planet it’s youthful ingenuity!

Pretty sure we were taught this as well. As I remember, it was a pretty good book

Climate change is a hoax!!!! Stop lying to the children!!!

Why don’t they just call it “Earth Science” (what is already known to be taught in 8-9th grade and no one will ever know 🤷‍♀️

👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

But I thought by 2022 NJ would've been gone by now with the rising sea levels an such and PA would be the new coastline 🤔be careful who wrote the book

Thats strange, I remember in the 70s learning that there was once an ice age 2.4 million years ago and lasted until 11,500 years ago. The climate repeatedly changed between very cold periods and very warm periods.

Wow. I’m proud to be a Jersey girl today!

Shannon Brandt, 41, told troopers he felt threatened and 'admitted to striking and killing the 18 year old Cayler Ellingson with his car because he had a political argument with him and believed he was a republican extremest. Why isn’t this story on the news?

Gee, I was in grade school in Colorado for the first Earth Day (yes, that old). It wasn’t on our curriculum but somehow we knew what it meant and the seriousness of it.

Great job NJ

Leaders as well,to stop destroying the habitats and slaughter of animals,killing of humans wars abject poverty,famine in parts of the world,decimation of rain forest etc. State of the world and countries,reflection of leaders,from the beginning to date,power of destruction.

Day one..Climate change aka Communism..

New Jersey looks dryer than I remember!

Oh no! CCT! Critical Climate Theory!

First of many hopefully

I'm guessing they won't be using this photo for their 'education'. If they do it will be 'This was all ocean, prior to the industrial revolution'.

Why isn't this being shown on ABC

Little late but better than before.

New Jersey is a bad place

So they are teaching a scam?

You already know some people are going to be crying that New Jersey is indoctrinating their kids. . .

Sad. Climate change is fake.

And all the Republicans say, 'HA! Al Gore!'

WooHoo! So proud of my state! It’s the world we are leaving these kids. Let them make informed decisions! From a RetiredNJ Science teacher!

Plant more trees and quit clear cutting the ones we have.

They should learn American history

No, they won’t “learn” about Climate Change, they will be INDOCTRINATED with lying fascist propaganda about a hoax and a scam!

It’s a joke. There kids kids kids kids kids kids kids will have to deal with climate change. We will be long gone.
