Global+Warming+Thalia

Dear WIKI readers,

On Friday January 31, 2008. A scientist named Suzanne Shaw came to the [|Amigos] school located on 100 Putnam Avenue Cambridge MA. To talk to both 7th and 8th graders about global warming since Friday was “[|Focus the nation day]” where scientist share their knowledge on global warming to students all over the country.

Global warming is a big challenge facing human civilization. It lives in cars, factories and electricity. 36% of it is transportation, 9% of it is commercial usage, 29% of it is electric power, 8% of it is Residential and 9% of it is industrial. Even though trees are a big carbon dioxide sponge architects today are cutting down trees for commercial and residential use.

Carbon dioxide levels today are higher than over the past 650,000 years. Because of this Boston has poor air quality, sea levels are rising, winters in Boston are more like winters in Philadelphia and when we should only be having one day over 100 degrees and a few days in the 90’s, our 100 degree days will increase and we'll have less 90 degree days.

How can we help? Human problem equals Human solution. Re-Use reduse, recyle and remember to spread the word to your families and communities. That way we can help save the nation.

Yours truely, Thalia
