They don't need to mandate it because teachers are more than happy to push this shit themselves. My biology teacher made us watch "An Inconvenient Truth" back in 2008. I'm pretty sure it made a bunch of predictions that failed to come true in the years since.
Yep. We spent days discussing the evils of canned hairspray and CFCs. Our textbooks were a little behind and said that acid rain was going to kill us all. It really blows my mind when I hear people of a certain age discuss climate change like its nuclear bombs in the cold war era. We've blown by so many "extinction event" predictions I can't even keep them all straight.

They have been saying that global warming/climate change was going to kill us in the next 5 years since the 1970s. Pretty sure that never happened.
Yeah I grew up in the "ozone layer is collapsing" stage of the grift
