Get 'em while they are young - kids and global warming

This is pathetic - from The Daily Caller:

Feds Enlist Disney To Make A ‘Frozen’ Film About The Melting Arctic
The Obama administration is looking to Disney to push its global warming agenda on America’s children. A top State Department official revealed he is in talks with the entertainment conglomerate to use characters from the movie “Frozen” to teach kids about global warming.

“I said, you’ve taught an entire generation about the Arctic,” Adm. Robert Papp, the U.S. special envoy for the Arctic, told an audience at a Norwegian conference about his talk with a Disney executive. “Unfortunately, the Arctic that you’ve taught them about is a fantasy kingdom in Norway where everything is nice.”

“What we really need to do is educate the American youth about the plight of the polar bear, about the thawing tundra, about Alaskan villages that run the risk of falling into the sea because of the lack of sea ice protecting their shores,” Papp said.

Plight of the Polar Bear whose numbers have dramatically increased in the last fifteen years, thawing tundra - if you would be so kind as to point out where (that would be a NO), villages falling into the sea - they always do this. The Alaskan coast is in a constant state of flux. The year after the great Alaskan Earthquake, my family and our minister visited the town of Shageluk, Alaska. It was sited on a tributary of the Yukon River and because of the quake, the tributary was shifting its banks and the town had to move. We presented them with a sawmill and movie projector. This was in 1964 and these things have been happening before and are continuing to happen.

To use an iconic children's cartoon character to spread this propaganda and false information is unconscionable. Admiral Papp has had a distinguished career and has done well but it is time for him to retire.
