Homeschooling: A Family’s Journey

National Public Radio’s David Kesterbaum offers a profile of Kristen Byrnes, a teenager who challenges orthodoxy about global warming.

And she has a quality scientists try to cultivate: she is skeptical. Has someone made a claim? She wants to see the data.

I don’t remember how old I was when I started getting into global warming,” Kristen says. “In middle school I remember everyone was like: ‘Global warming! The world is going to end!’ Stuff like that … so I never really believed in it.”

Kristen’s website is Ponder the Maunder.
