The 4 warmest years on record have happened in the last 5 years. It’s a major problem, no rain in the summers along with more days over 90 degrees grows each year.

We’re two days away from halfway. Not exactly barely. And like I said before, the ten day forecast is temps above freezing. So 10+12 is the 22nd. Practically March. I will confidently say that the “cool” weather will return. The sun is marching north, and that is on a definite timeline. It’s ok to admit that you’re probably wrong. In fact, it’s quite healthy. And if I’m wrong, you’re more than welcome to DM me and rub it in.

It is far from definite that the phrase has anything to do with the slur.

Climate change on planet Earth is Always happening. It is the Natural nature of the planet. 2 billion years ago, it was changing. Back then, Man kind could not have survived such conditions. As a person turning 60 years old this very week. I remember Winter of 1981. For every year, that I can remember, February has Always have had warm spells. This week, in New England it was warm. Just like every year. Why do I remember it? Because, our family dog passed away that week. The greatest dog I ever knew. A Beagle named Skipper. I remember helping my Father dig a grave, getting ready for his passing. Guess what, 2 years later my Grandmother, on my Mother's side past away on Groundhog Day. Guess the temperature that week? In ty he 50's. For 40 years plus they say we are at doomsday. If you Actually believe that line of BS, then, I have a bridge to sell you. The Brooklyn Bridge. I can give you a good deal. Lol. Ok, truthfully, if you actually believe that we can Actually change the planet like that, then you deserve to lose everything in your life. Think about it for once. Short of a Nuclear War. This planet is Billions of years old. Mankind has only been around such a short time. Take in account Mankind has truly been powerful since the Industrial Revolution. Given that, there is still No way that we, as Man, have affected our environment to that point yet. Even with our planet's growing population. It statically impossible. You are being lied to. If you look at Unaltered data, the planet has not gained a degree for the past 100 years. They had to alter the data to try to make their case. Look it up. 40 years from now, we will be in the Exact same place weather wise.

Nobody cares, but again, you called him a liar for an issue which was reported on which actually makes you the liar there. So I guess if you don’t care you are a liar, that is on you, I personally don’t care that you are a liar. Just pointing it out in case you missed it.

Well, you did call him a liar for a trend that was noticed by many during the 2020 primary. The rest of his post was opinion and I don’t agree with it but the language change was enough to be reported on. Here is one example.

I agree with you, but it never helps to say that something you're debating is "not up for debate". Just give this dude some links my guy

Budget keeps getting cut with programs we need related to social/emotional health, and wages are not worth it for teachers to endure the asylum like classrooms that exist now. Parents want to take no accountability for their violent kids so teachers just have to « deal with it ».

You are the idiot. Bernie never held a real job until he got elected to Mayor of Burlington. He even got kicked out of a commune for being to lazy.

So my kids love Burlington HS, macys and all. It's got more diversity than you'll find in other schools, the academics are good (plenty of AP classes etc) and they still use the fields at the old school for athletics so it's not like you're running around the mall for practice. My daughter runs cross country and it's gorgeous having practice on the lake. Their friends go from immigrants to children of UVM profs it's really cool. I means yes, Macy's. I'd still give it a chance if it's up to you because living in Burlington has so much to offer in terms of walkable teen stuff (music, coffee shops, thrift stores etc). The others are sort of more of a suburban experience which is lovely, but not as interesting to me.

We are barely into February. It’s weather. It doesn’t work on a definitive time line. End of January beginning of February are essentially the same thing. The cold will return

I think the general observation is two fold to be honest. I dont really care how much money he has. I do think it is kinda funny his answer was write a best selling book and you can be a millionaire too. Yeah man, that’s how a consumer driven economy works. That is the definition of capitalism. Produce a product lots of people want and you can get rich. This is exactly what Gates, Musk, and Bezos did.
The second part, the language pivot looks bad even if his core message remains the same. Like if your stump speech rallies against a socioeconomic class you suddenly become a part of, then you drop that class from your speech, it makes you look a little hypocritical.

Behaviors are intense and our students are tremendously traumatized from the past few years. Kiddos are incapable of regulating and are more violent in lower grades. It’s quite exhausting…pair that with the recent hoaxes across the state, not the best time to be a teacher. 😅

You are correct about the 2020 Supreme Court decision protecting GLBTQ citizens from being fired. I had forgotten about that. I do know hundred of laws have been and are targeting trans people and the GLBTQ community regarding education. And I strongly disagree that education should not be about history, cultural groups and civil discourse. Education is not only about training workers. It’s teaching about teaching people how we as a society got to where we are and how we can address the serious social, environmental and economic issues that we face today.

Yes I've seen many graphs. Which graphs are you talking about? Again my original post asks what specific data have you seen that points to the obvious conclusion you have come to. Take away politics emotions and peer pressure. Do you know what mostly influences weather? Do you know what percentage of our atmosphere is co2 vs other greenhouse gases? I'm not saying climate change isn't real I'm just saying the OP is using personal.observations of normal weather patterns as proof of global climate change

Not a teacher but these huge districts operating like a corporate top down business isn’t good for the kids or the teachers. Just an observation from a spouse that will likely be told to delete the comment…

You ever seen a graph bud? The trends exist, it's not up for debate. Whether humans are causing it entirely or it's part of a larger cycle of natural climate variation you can debate a bit. But when it lines up very closely with the industrial revolution...kind of hard to ignore IMO. But you might disagree.
