"Traditional geography teaching is to be sidelined in favour of studying global warming, Third-World trade and the 2012 Olympics."This is oh so wise. Playing games is now our way of life. Third World Trade has suddenly ceased to be a matter of politics and economics and global warming as caused by man has been proved irrefutably - after all, we must never let the facts get in the way of a good story.
At the same time, national boundaries have of course, disappeared. Tectonic plates, mountains, rivers and seas have gone away.
Weather, map reading, contours, language distribution and social crossovers no longer exist.
What is the betting that this politically correct idiocy will have also removed evolution from the curriculum? - Ah. Thought not!
On 'The Simpsons' of course, there would be a disclaimer: "All new geography contains no geography."
