Florida adds more textbook restrictions. This time, it’s climate change.

The big story: First, Florida told textbook publishers to excise all mentions of “critical race theory” if they wanted to sell their editions to the state’s schools.

Next came the prohibition on “social-emotional learning” and “diversity, equity and inclusion.”

Now it looks to be climate change. Authors say the DeSantis administration has instructed them to ditch most references of the term, following a move to eradicate the concept from much of state law. “Florida is one of the most impacted by the impacts of climate change, and oh my goodness Gov DeSantis, why?” said Brandon Haught, a Volusia County science teacher who has fought for accurate science standards.
