The problem isn't with children understanding facts it is with adults who have been engineered into denying science.

I remember being lied to by my high school,30 fricken years ago, about how dangerous marijuana was and other lovely "untruths"..
All that did for me was to give me a major mistrust of anyone in authority basically the exact opposite of its intended goal.

No reason to study.
I can kill or steal whatever because we'll all be dead in 11 years anyways.
Staying high and drunk is the only answer because....
Eat, drink and be merry for tomorrow we die.

Isn’t the message these kids are responding to (or “indoctrinated with, if you prefer) more,
“The world will become uninhabitable in 12 years If we don’t take action to Prevent that from happening Immediately!
Aren’t you kind of missing the real point of their protest, that to secure the future of next generation, our kids, who we supposedly care deeply about (or at least claim to care deeply about), we have to stop denying that a problem exists, stop talking about who’s to blame for the problem, stop arguing about who going to pay to fix the problem or how much it’s going to cost,
And start fixing the damn problem?
Yeah, we don’t like it when our kids point out our flaws, especially when those flaws are really inconvenient.
But as the old saying goes (as we were taught, and as we have taught them),
“Out of the mouths of babes.”

Who told you this?
I know that my friends 16yo daughter isn't being taught this in her school.
