Certain units were piloted in schools beginning in 2006, it's posted online now.
The Education and the Environment Initiative (EEI) Curriculum Famed naturalist John Muir captured the vital importance of education about the environment when he said, "Tug on anything at all and you'll find it connected to everything else in the universe." Imagine the possibilities if that understanding began, for students, as early as Kindergarten and continued through high school. With the Education and the Environment Initiative (EEI) Curriculum, that vision is well on the way to becoming a reality.
Field-tested in Kindergarten to 12th grade classrooms from San Diego to California's North Coast, the 85 EEI Curriculum units cover selected academic content standards in both Science and History-Social Science. Each EEI Curriculum unit is designed to teach one or more standards to mastery.
The State Board of Education (SBE) unanimously approved all 85 EEI Curriculum units. With SBE’s stamp of approval, the 85 curriculum units are now undergoing the final revisions to incorporate the feedback and recommendations provided by teachers, content specialists, and SBE Members. Revisions to the EEI Curriculum units will be completed in Fall 2010.
The Final Draft EEI Curriculum units will remain posted while revisions are underway. As EEI Curriculum units become final, the draft versions are being replaced with final versions.

The Democracy Now piece wasn't very specific about there being any bias in any of the specific units or passages.
