Lately I have heard about global warming and how this affects the weather and the air we breathe. I have heard adults talk about how the weather is changing, and how global warming and climate changes are related. It seems that the climate is changing and that the earth is warming up.
The warming of the earth causes increases in temperatures and decreases the natural habitat of many species. In fact, many species are losing their ability to adapt to the changes in temperatures and we are losing a number of ecosystems. Many agree that climate change may be one of the greatest threats facing the planet.
Extreme rainstorms and snowfalls have become more frequent and this type of weather has often caused deadly flooding and other natural disasters. The change in severity seems to be most apparent in North America where weather instruments are the most reliable, although severe weather is being experienced throughout the globe.
Global warming fascism is successfully brainwashing children.
Since kool-aid is the only thing they’re serving, it is no wonder. Hopefully one day they’ll be called to account for being so one-sided; ironically by the very children they were trying to “protect”.
They have succeeded in persuading this kid that the weather has now become the climate.
I’m glad I was able to learn REAL science in the 5th grade.

There is no way a 5th grader wrote that piece. It might have been one of Gore’s minions, someone from Greenpeace, an adult, or a college student (maybe a talented HS student could have written it).
That’s what I was thinking. That isn’t 5th grade level writing unless the kid is some kind of prodigy.
I just popped in to write exactly that. No way does a fifth grader write that.
I’ll brb with the scoring on that…..
Grade, 10.6

Apparently, someone didn’t tell this child that the target for writing to a general audience is 7.0-8.0 and that readability needs to be about 70.
Hello together,
this is a German author and expert for children. I also believe this can’t have been written by a 5th-grader.
Independent of that – over here in Germany I made the experience that kids are told of CO2 as a poison. When I tell the kids that exactly this CO2 is the stuff we depend on because there would be no life on earth without it – and they themselves tell that at school, they get in trouble! I consider this a scandal as big as the IPCC!
Please tell me that this is the case only in Germany! I’m afraid for the stuff making our future – the children!
