The United Nations has decided to take control of not only country, but now they also want to control our kids as well - This is brain washing.
These people are so use to doing this in their home countries that to do it here just seems natural - Now we are suppose to feel some kind of graifrcation for their efforts to educating our children - Al Gore style?
U.N. Book Scares Kids on Climate Change
A new United Nations children’s book promotes fears of catastrophic manmade global warming – and is replete with exaggerations and inaccuracies, according to a U.S. Senate report.
The book, "Tore and the Town on Thin Ice,” is published by the United Nations Environment Programme and blames "rich countries” for creating a climate catastrophe. [Editor's Note: Read about how Al Gore and friends spin global warming with this Special Offer from NewsMax Magazine. Go Here Now.]
A release issued Monday by the U.S. Senate Committee on Environment & Public Works reads in part:
"The book is about a young kid named Tore who lives in an Arctic village. Tore loses a dog sled race because he crashes through the thinning ice allegedly caused by manmade greenhouse gas emissions. The book features colorful drawings and large text to appeal to young children.
"After the boy loses the dog sled race, he is visited by ‘Sedna, the Mother of the Sea’ in a dream. The ‘Sea Mother’ informs the boy in blunt terms that the thinning ice that caused his loss in the dog sled race was due to manmade global warming . . .
"The morning after his dream, Tore sets out on a quest for knowledge about the dangers of catastrophic manmade global warming. A ‘snowy owl’ informs Tore that ‘the planet’s heating up’ and that both the Arctic and Antarctica ‘are warming almost twice as fast as elsewhere.’”
The committee’s release notes: "The Arctic, according to the International Arctic Research Center, was warmer during the 1930s than today and both the journals Science and Nature have published studies recently finding – on balance – Antarctica is both cooling and gaining ice.”
The release continues: "The ‘snowy owl’ also asserts that ‘the great ice cap here in Greenland – mountains of snow and ice up to about four kilometers thick – is thawing.”
Again, the committee refutes that allegation, stating: "A 2005 study by a scientist named Ola Johannessen and his colleagues showed that the interior of Greenland is gaining ice and mass.”
In the book, a polar bear informs Tore that it is hungry because the ice is too thin to stand on and hunt and says that other bears have "starved.” The polar bear adds, "We may not have much of a future.”
The committee release states: "In May of 2006, biologist Dr. Mitchell Taylor from the Arctic government of Nunavut, a territory of Canada, noted that ‘Of the 13 populations of polar bears in Canada, 11 are stable or increasing in number. They are not going extinct, or even appear to be affected at present.’”
After a whale appears and presents more climate fear, the boy finally screams, "Listen, I’ve had all the bad news I can stand. Our world is melting. Polar bears are starving and all sorts of animals won’t survive. I don’t want to hear anymore!”
The whale continues, telling the child that more hurricanes and "other things you call ‘natural disasters’ are on their way, too – and they’re getting harsher.”
The committee’s release notes: "The relationships between global warming and hurricanes is currently under debate, with the great majority of scientists believing there is little connection. For instance, 2006 was anticipated to be a record year for hurricanes, but turned out to be one of the calmest seasons in many, many years.”
In the book, the "Sea Mother” singles out the industrialized world as the cause of her predicted climate catastrophe.
The release goes on to state the "Sea Mother” tells the boy: "Rich countries use – and waste – an awful lot of energy. Huge cars. Too many cars instead of efficient trains and buses.”
The committee interjects that "several developing world nations will soon pass the U.S. in greenhouse gas emissions. China alone will pass the U.S. in emissions in 2009.”
The book is being promoted at the U.N. Climate Change Conference in Kenya.
