A middle school in Utah's Nebo School District gave sixth-grade students "disgusting" insects to eat last week as part of an English assignment on climate change, claiming it would save the environment from cows which were "killing the world," according to a mom who spoke with Fox News Digital.

The climate change assignment instructed sixth-graders to write an argumentative essay, but did not permit students to disagree. The only acceptable answer was that humans should eat insects for their protein instead of cows, which are destroying the Ozone layer with methane gas.

We are back to the ozone layer, that was a thing when I was a kid

I would be ok with some tax dollars going to methane capture - we could study it and see if there's an effect. The data would be useful. It needs to be in industrial settings - agriculture is not where most methane is produced, to my knowledge. But, the idea of abandoning meat, burning down our economy etc is just absurd.

This is the type of fantastical shite you would read about the Soviet Union.

Make sure you know what kind of people you're voting for to your local and state school boards

I do love when libs try to do science.

A significant amount arises from rice production. The IPCC (International Politburo of Communist Climatologists) claims 60% of methane production is "man-made."

Of course, arriving at that conclusion assumes rice patties were not originally wetlands, that the 5 million or so buffalo roaming the plains until the mid-19th century contributed no methane, that there are no natural HC-related methane vents only man-made derivation, and that detritus would not exist if not for garbage dumps.

For people that seemingly hate Russia/Soviet Union, they sure do act like them.

We must, we shall…follow the science. If it tells us to eat bugs, it would be reckless to all of society to not abide. Are you telling me, right now, you don’t believe science?

So kill yourself to give the one percent the planet. Plenty of idiots have bought into the plan.

I’ve never heard a single explanation of this! What is their plan for cows? Kill them all? Do they fart because we eat them? What Elephants and Rhinos? I bet they fart like Motherfricker!!! What about humans? We fart like Motherfrickers too. Just kill all life forms that fart I guess, then we’ll all live happily ever after in a non changing climate! Except we’ll all be dead! Lol
