Blue State Officials Vote To Shove ‘Climate Change’ Education Into Math Class

The New Jersey Board of Education adopted K-12 standards for math and language arts that include climate change education Wednesday, according to New Jersey Spotlight News.

In 2020, the state became the first in the nation to approve adding climate change content to its standards in order to foster a new generation of “students that can analyze, question, interpret, to think independently, and bring critical deduction” to the “burgeoning industries of the future green economy,” according to the new standards. The board, which had previously included the content in classes on technology, health, science and world history, approved the changes in math and language arts by a 6 to 4 vote, according to New Jersey Spotlight News.

“These standards are really meaningful because it gives a way to teach,” Elaine Bobrove, a board member, told New Jersey Spotlight News. “You need to have some kind of an example so students can feel like ‘I’m learning something. I’m doing something,’ that there is a meaning, that it’s not just numbers, it’s not just sounds of words.”
