DeSantis’s Florida Approves Climate-Denial Videos in Schools

Florida’s Department of Education has approved classroom use of videos that spout climate disinformation and distort climate science

The thing is Mother Nature does not care about the American political and social divide. I just wonder how future generations are going to view us, how our prevalent negligence for the planet is going to be portrayed?

In our old age, Millennials and Zoomers will envy the respect the Baby Boomers are given today. We’ll say “I was one of the good ones, I voted against this!”

Luckily the world is bigger than the US/Florida

But is it big enough to survive US/Florida

Unfortunately the US has a tendency to export their particular brand of crazy to the rest of the world

I hope you are right, but I have my doubts, people in Eastern Europe, for example, share the scepticism and outright denial presented in the article above without having Ron DeSantis.
