Go back and read what I posted again. I did not say "don't teach climate change", I said, "don't use a one-sided extremist polemic from a politician to teach it." Ok. Message 23181619 [1]"This seems like a legitimate concern to me. Gore deliberately presented the worst case scenario in order to get people's attention. [2]It's a good rhetorical device when you are attempting to sway public opinion by the use of rhetoric, but rhetoric has no place in a science classroom. [3]I would suggest that the movie be suggested to the students as voluntary supplementary information and allow them to view it in the school library during lunch or after school. That way, the school isn't put into the position of endorsing a political message." I don't see the words you claim to have said, sic, "don't use a one-sided extremist polemic from a politician to teach it." ...Which paragraph would that be in? I've inserted numbers for your convenience. TIA, jttmab
