Two separate textbook authors have told the Orlando Sentinel Florida state officials demanded textbook publishers remove or modify multiple references to man-made climate change in texts if they wanted them used in the state, including forcing one publisher to remove a 90-page chapter on climate change from a middle school science book.
Ken Miller, the co-author of that textbook and a professor emeritus at Brown University, said his publisher had to remove or add substantiation to a high school-level text referring to man-made climate change, and his publisher told him about the chapter being removed from his middle school text for Florida. Miller is not just a textbook author; he’s president of the board of the National Center for Science Education.
