Never let a crisis go to waste, say the moonbats. Education Week calls for exploiting the Los Angles wildfires as a pretext to shirk work and then reinforce global warming brainwashing.

We were in no hurry to get teachers back to work after Covid, were we? Fear of “climate-related disasters” may “pose significant challenges for educators” by causing them to be frightened by doomsday rhetoric. This can “hinder their ability to deliver instruction effectively” and sometimes even “exacerbates teacher burnout.” So,

Efforts to return to normalcy for students often overlook or minimize the needs of educators, pushing them back into work mode before they may be ready to fully process and recover.

Speaking of doomsday rhetoric, the wildfires are not the only phenomenon moonbats are blaming on the global warming hoax, resulting in a generation of neurotic children:

Studies have shown that many young people hold fatalistic views about the future of the environment, which can heighten their anxiety, making it essential to engage them in constructive conversations about climate change. …

By fostering a sense of collective agency and providing opportunities to engage in climate solutions, we can help students combat these feelings, contribute meaningfully to the fight against climate change, and shape a more sustainable future.

To sum up, when they feel up to coming back to work, teachers must double down on the delusion that insufficient taxation and regulation cause Santa Ana winds to blow so that students can be recruited as fellow change agents a.k.a. moonbat myrmidons for California’s left-wing establishment.

Maybe it is for the best not to hurry kids back into their classrooms after all.
