Freedom is precioius. Once lost, it is hard to regain. But, it might be regained with such a vigor as to ensure that vigilance is not just an empty word, but a constant. Cicero said it so long ago:
“Freedom suppressed and again regained bites with keener fangs than freedom never endangered.”
Environmentalism, sustainability, global stewardship — these are bywords by which school curriculums are being steered in the "transformations" underway in K-12 schools.
Hopefully balance will prevail and that discussion and school work will provide for counter positions.
The movie "Climate Crime" tries to show how welll-intentioned environmental initiatives can actually be more harmful to the areas involved than expected.
