Teachers Beware of Climate Denial

I wrote this peer-reviewed review article especially for science teachers to inform them of the insidious nature of the threat of climate denial in the classroom. Climate-denial organizations (which directly deny aspects of the scientific consensus on climate change) and the related petro-pedagogy groups (which teach that oil is a benefactor to humanity, but say little about the connection of fossil fuels to the climate crisis) have arisen to attempt to interfere with the teaching of the science of climate change in school classrooms. 

This corporate-based propaganda promotes itself as a friend of education to help teachers, parents, and pupils but it is only in schools to promote their profits. By doing so, they are feeding false knowledge to the classroom and are putting students (and everyone else) at risk from climate change.

A frightful aspect of this disinformation from the Energy-Industrial Complex is that teachers must be on guard for their trickery for their maleficence is hidden in a shroud of experts coming to help you and the students.

I wrote this review for you. I hope that you enjoy it, and that it is useful. I would like to hear back from you on your experiences and what you think of the article. Please share it with your colleagues.
