To the Editor:
“Science Teachers Lag on Climate Change” (news article, Feb. 12) reports on a survey indicating that science teachers in American high schools and middle schools spend only one to two hours on average per year teaching about climate change, and that 30 percent of them tell students that recent global warming “is likely due to natural causes.”
This sounds serious; in fact, it is catastrophic. The fate of the world literally depends on the education of the American public and its understanding of the impending crisis.
