2025 is the UN Deadline for All Countries to Integrate Climate Propaganda into Their School Curriculum

Who are “the EDUCATED” here? The mentally reconditioned students, of course, who are now the ones who should be teaching the teachers, in classic inverted Maoist Red Guard (or Green Guard) style. History repeats itself, as such kids most assuredly will not be being taught in their own actual green-washed history lessons.

Harvest Loons

The situation currently sounds most serious over in France. In January 2023, Paris announced that, in the future, all French degree courses, of any kind, must include close instruction upon the subject of “climate transition”, to prepare students for the forthcoming Apocalypse.

The immediate springboard for this measure was a series of protests held by undergraduates and graduates the previous year, helpfully demanding implementation of this very measure. But why had the youngsters demanded it? Such entreaties may have been depicted as appropriately organic in nature, but in truth, they will have been mentally conditioned to ‘want’ such things ever since birth.

Most alarming of all were the attitudes of French agricultural students during these protests. One newly qualified agronomist at AgroParis Tech, a prestigious agribusiness training college, spoke as follows: “I have felt deep unease, becoming aware that the careers that my studies were leading [me] up to [enter] were the main cause of the [forthcoming] environmental collapse.”

Just what the world needs: a generation of farmers who don’t want to do any farming and grow any food, because it’s bad for the planet. What next, green-coated doctors who don’t want to treat any patients, because if they get well they might buy a car or use a radiator?

Total Fools

Actually, what really comes next are engineering students who don’t want to do any engineering. Why bother enrol on an engineering course at all, then? That was the question students at the École Polytechnique, one of France’s biggest engineering colleges, were asking themselves in 2021, when they too marched out in protest after the domestic fossil fuel giant Total announced it would open a research centre on the university’s campus to help students learn their future trades. The students were not very grateful.

“By going to class, by working, we take part in a world that we denounce,” one latter-day soixante-huitard said, channelling the spirit of France’s famous student radicals of ‘68. “Cognitive dissonance is huge.” It certainly is, but not in the way you mean it. Another resident Millie Tant complained of feeling “disturbed” by the prospect that the “rather biased” Total “might want to use oil and gas” in its work on campus. What else did you think it was going to use? It’s an oil and gas company, not a magic rainbow farm.

A mandatory three-day seminar on climate change had already been introduced to the École Polytechnique curriculum for all students three years before the 2021 strikes, and its results were all too obvious: in a classic Maoist Red Guard mindset of moral inversion, the students now thought they should be in charge of their teachers and future employers.

“Companies are doing everything they can to recruit us,” one student warned, due to their supposedly high qualifications. “But when we tell them ‘we’re not coming because you’re destroying the planet and because we don’t support the economic system [i.e., capitalism] you’re in,’ it scares them.” It wouldn’t scare me as an employer. I’d just start recruiting staff from a somewhat less Communist country like China instead.

Because You’re Not Worth It

Asked to prepare a report on the industrial activities of French cosmetics company L’Oréal, meanwhile, the students’ excellent considered suggestion was that it simply cease manufacturing any further cosmetics at all, in order to “reduce its impact on the environment”, questioning “the very usefulness of all the group’s activities”.

Imagine going to a job interview and, when asked why you wanted the job, replying: “To destroy the company.” And then imagine they actually give you the job, too. Because that would appear to be what is increasingly now happening. Is the West secretly being run by Reggie Perrin these days or something?

The most truly scary thing of all is that the École Polytechnique is ultimately overseen by the French Ministry of Defence, as France’s security, like that of all nations, relies in the long-term upon its designers and inventors being able to create weapons systems able to compete with those of foreign foes like Russia. All the current cohort of students will be willing to pump out are love-bombs, though – despite the fact that, technically, every last one of them is supposed to be considered a non-uniformed member of the armed forces.

If you were a far-Left university-based ideologue who wanted to kill capitalism, and the evil imperialist West in general, pumping out wave after wave of moronic and pious student Trots like this would be one of the very best ways to do it.

You know that new eco-friendly Jaguar car-design which looks like a gay Batmobile being advertised by an anorexic George Dawes from Shooting Stars the Daily Sceptic has been mocking so much lately? Where do you think the mindset of the cretins who designed it all came from? Places like the École Polytechnique, evidently. And please remember: these are our intended future leaders. All-wise bodies like UNESCO have decreed it must be so.

Apocalypse Why?

Who are the specific ‘minds’ behind this proposed new Green French Revolution? One man often cited is Michel Lussault, Professor of Geography and Urban Studies at Lyons University, who has demanded the new era of climate indoctrination “must bring a relaunch of all our science and our classical education” so that they become designed to be exactly how he personally wants them to be, because Lussault is our new Green God.

In 2023, when Paris’s hitherto largely sotto voce plan was announced to the nation, Jupiter Lussault arrogantly declared this to be “a moment when the entire academic history of the last two centuries can be considered closed”.

Lussault is calling for a wholesale rethink of what it even means to be a qualified expert in any subject at all, in the new epoch of Climate Doom. “We don’t need classical disciplines” any more, he has said. “Let’s get away from the idea that only good specialists count.” Why should Apocalypse-era plumbers only know how to do plumbing? Why should they not also know how to save the planet too? (By henceforth refusing to repair any customers’ central heating, I would guess.)

Another fully accredited Green Goddess is Sylvie Retailleau, France’s Higher Education Minister, who in 2022 addressed a conference at the University of Bordeaux, making a “pledge” to students that, as of 2025, any courses leading to a BA-level qualification or equivalent would have to integrate material relating to “the challenges of the ecological transition” which now face us all.

Think you’re going to the Sorbonne to study Pre-Medieval English Literature, Pierre? Only if you fancy spending three years endlessly re-reading Sir Gawain and the Green Knight. 2025, by the way, is the very same year by which UNESCO has announced it wants all the world’s schools and colleges to begin fully implementing obligatory climate curricula. What a very curious coincidence.

Mother Morally Superior

As if to prove Le Nut Zero really is all part of a literal French climate-cult, another grand fromage involved is an actual Order of outright eco-nuns, who run the Campus de la Transition, a Findhorn-style rural retreat somewhere out there in La France Profunde.

This is led by Cecile Renouard, a religious philosopher and nun who teaches (and preaches) at several French universities, like the Jesuit Faculty of Paris and the Écoles des Mines, not to mention the ultra-prestigious Sciences Po. Cecile’s personal “motto in life” is apparently “The joyful release!” which sounds like a particularly stubborn fart after swallowing one too many lettuces.

In 2021 the New Age sect completely objective scientific grouping published its immensely long and boring Great Transition Manual. It basically says everything you’d expect it to about the necessity of mankind living in harmony with nature, and downgrading national borders, state sovereignty, the profit-motive and private property, just with the added subtext that, in the end, Jesus is the low-energy lightbulb of the world.

I did particularly note its deploring of “the independent individual, free to decide, do and say what we want, constantly seeking more and fascinated with growth”, suspecting these words may well have been penned by Dostoyevsky’s Grand Inquisitor. Also, the Manual’s desire to call liberal democracy outmoded thanks to its dependence on “access to coal and carbon”, before applauding “the end of abundance” instead is indeed successful in its simultaneously professed desire to “redefine ethics” in a certain way.

I was similarly intrigued by its call for “environmental balance sheets” to replace ordinary financial ones throughout the world of commerce. Jaguar must have been reading the Manual too, then? Meanwhile, “all legal disciplines must be transformed in order to deal with environmental issues”, which doesn’t sound at all ominous. Furthermore, environmentalism must be placed above every last other governmental consideration – even, the Manual says, national defence, as at today’s École Polytechnique.

Equally striking is who commissioned the Manual in the first place: the French Ministry of Higher Education.

The Bad Life

What would life in such a Green New World actually be like? Primitive. The Campus is located in an 18th-century chateau south of Paris, where various wholly irrelevant subjects, from economics to law, are taught through a monomaniacally environmental lens, amidst allotments where the students grow their own unfilling rabbit-food, like in The Good Life.

The place is owned by a Catholic organisation, the Congregation of the Religious of the Assumption, of which Cecile Renouard is a Sister, which aims at “rethinking today’s world” by implementing nothing less than “the systemic transformation of our societies”. According to one student’s 2019 account, life there runs like this:

Believers ought to be the first ecologists .… It is a radical, simple life, vegetarian food, organic gardening, bee hives near the woodland… a noticeable lack of plastic… working towards zero waste with large heaps of compost, even a compost loo with wood shavings for cover… there is no heating and… there is a real problem about draught exclusion even before the choice for geothermal, biogas or whatever, is made. The community braves the winter with blankets… [I particularly enjoyed] The Morning Moment… when we gathered together for a short silence, followed by going round to say briefly how each of us was feeling that day, [cold?] then a reading, often a poem, and then a short game using our bodies… While I was there, officials from the Ministry of Education came to talk with Cecile… about working on a multidisciplinary and ecological curriculum for all institutes of higher education in France. … Cecile would have a free hand to develop this with the help of the other members of the Campus. … A young Ethiopian refugee, Ahmednur, is one of the members of the community.

If I was Ahmednur, I’d be flying back to Ethiopia tomorrow, carbon be damned.

Naturally, if religious ascetics and wannabe Tolstoyans wish to live their own personal lives like this, then fine, why not? But why should our kids be systematically groomed and emotionally manipulated from the moment they walk through a classroom door into wanting to do so too? If he knew what UNESCO and the eco-nuns were up to in his name, what would Jesus say? Grow up and burn some bloody coal, probably.

This isn’t about saving the planet from killer gas. It’s about destroying Western civilisation top to bottom in a fit of demented moral fervour. During some similar 2022 climate strikes held at Barcelona University, one sceptical Spanish politician called the whole thing a “Communist plot”. Maybe so. No Maoist Little Red Books any more, that would be much too obvious. Today, the students are far too busy reading Little Green Books instead. Or are they actually Little Green Bibles?
