Start ’Em Young: Government Climate Alarmists Brainwashing Kids to Comply With Green Tyranny
Climate alarmists in the federal government are now brainwashing children with an “inescapable death spiral” if they do not comply with green tyranny.
The Washington Free Beacon reported on this matter, citing the Climate Kids webpage operated by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). While the webpage includes educational materials and activities for children, it also parrots talking points from the climate alarmists. These include claims like “the world is undergoing cataclysmic warming,” “sea levels are rising” and “global ice coverage is diminishing.”
Just like the green tyrants claim, the Climate Kids page claims that fossil fuels are to blame for “pollution, the destruction of landscapes and natural habitats, oil spills in the ocean, and nasty fracking chemicals in the ground.” It also proclaims that global warming is the “biggest problem of all” despite studies that prove that the world’s temperatures are actually cooling.

The Free Beacon also showed an example of NASA’s Climate Kids webpage brainwashing children about the dangers of “climate change” and rising sea levels. One image predicted that cities like New Orleans and Miami could be underwater. However, the site does not show a timeline as to when it will happen.
Meanwhile, the NOAA Education Portal managed by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) also peddles talking points from climate alarmists. It includes a curriculum with catastrophic language about global warming. “Courses linked on the portal, for example, encourage students to foster negative emotions about the state of the environment into taking action,” noted the Free Beacon.
“The online resources appear to be a peg in the Biden-Harris administration’s broader strategy of aiming climate messaging at younger generations.”
Texas Sen. Cruz to investigate the two climate portals
According to the Free Beacon, the NASA Climate Kids webpage was created during the Obama administration in 2012. However, the NOAA Education Portal was made under the Biden administration only in 2022.
The webpages did not sit well with U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX), ranking member of the Senate Commerce Committee, with both now the subject of an investigation he is spearheading. On Aug. 22, he wrote letters to NASA Administrator Bill Nelson and NOAA Administration Richard Spinrad over the two resources. Cruz demanded information from the two officials about their efforts to stoke climate anxiety and “manufacture support” for “radical environmental activism.”
The senator accused the two agencies of producing “faux-educational materials that fuel climate alarmism” to generate support for the Biden administration’s climate agenda. Such fearmongering, he noted, contributes to the rise of “eco-anxiety” among young Americans.
“Young people are absorbing the rhetoric. They report high levels of anxiety about climate change and are adapting their behavior in radical ways, including by foregoing children. Is this anxiety based on science or sensationalism? The evidence points to the latter.”
Cruz wrote in his letter to Nelson that the prediction of submerged cities shown in the Climate Kids webpage wouldn’t happen for hundreds of years, if it will, based on the most updated analyses. “Our country’s approach to climate change should be driven by science, not the woke zeitgeist,” the senator wrote.
The Texas Republican meanwhile wrote in his letter to Spinrad that a video from 2012 in the NOAA Education Portal warned that melting ice caps could create an “inescapable death spiral.” The same video warned that “global warming” would leave no ice in the Arctic Ocean by 2022. However, NASA’s own data showed the opposite – the minimum extent of Arctic ice has increased by 29 percent since the video’s creation.
NASA spokeswoman Jennifer Dooren told the Free Beacon that her agency received the letter and would respond to the senator directly. Meanwhile, NOAA – which is under the Department of Commerce – did not respond to a request for comment.

| The man-made global-warming theorists made a very significant error in working out their ideas: they forgot the sun was shining, science advisor to Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher Lord Cristopher Monckton told The New American magazine's Alex Newman in an interview at the Heartland Institute's (www.heartland.org) 15th international climate summit. The "superstitious" narrative, though, is being used to build up communist regimes and economies, Lord Monckton explains, citing numerous examples. But he spends much of the interview hilariously explaining a scientific paper he has been working on that exposes these errors that is expected to be published soon. The math is fairly simple, he said, and yet the warmists have had no response to these errors so far. |
