How to Handle a Child Brainwashed with Environmentalist Propaganda

We all know about how children today are being indoctrinated with environmentalist propaganda.  Well, there is a very distressing but not surprising article here about how a survey has shown that one in three American preteens fear an environmental apolcalypse.  But my focus right now is not on the piece but on a comment left under it by a parent.  This individual, who goes by the handle "Reformed Environ-Mental," offered some great advice to parents who find that their children are bringing environmentalist dogma home with them from school.  Here is what he said:

Parents, you need to combat these messages of eco-disaster.

Ask your kids if they want to give up their house and live in a mud hut. If they want to be forced to ride their bikes in the winter for transportation. If they never want to eat a banana or drink orange juice again because those fruits aren't grown locally. If they want to hand over their computers, video games and cell phones because they waste energy and were made from petroleum-based materials.

Explain to them that regardless of what the actors and actresses on Nickelodeon preach, they certainly do not put it to practice. (Miranda Cosgrove walking to set? I don't think so.)

They'll see the light. My boys have.

Bravo . . . bravo.

Ask them if they would rather psend the winter in a nice home with heating and warm beds or live in a drafty dank cold cave or grass hut with nothing but plant fiber blankets and no matresses

How is this different from the fear my generation had of nuclear attack and winter?
