Most people do not know how bad global warming is to our, animal’s and the Earth’s heath. And do you know what is the cause to the Earth’s global heating? Us. A thickening layer of carbon dioxide pollution and other greenhouse gases, mostly from power plants and automobiles, which traps heat in the atmosphere causes global warming. If we keep burning fossil fuels in the 21st century heat waves will become more frequent and intense. Droughts and wildfires will occur more often. Global warming increases the worlds temperature. There are three main causes of global warming 1. Green house gases in the atmosphere, 2. Feedbacks, and 3. Solar variation. Some early signs that show Global Warming is in affect are that: there are heat waves and periods of unusually warm weather, the Ocean is warming, the sea-level is rising, there is a lot of coastal flooding, glaciers are melting, and the Arctic and Antarctic is warming.

=__Detailed Description of Scenes__=

__Act 1__ Rob: Did you know that global warming increases the worlds temperature? Youssef: On July 1999, here in New York, temperatures climbed over 95 degrees. Thomas: Man is polluting the Earth and is causing temperatures to drastically get warmer. Polar bears are becoming more in danger and have no land to live on. They are drowning and becoming extinct because they are getting forced of the ice because its melting. Robby- In 50 to 60 years the Himalayan glaciers will melt completely and cause a drastic shortage of water. Youssef- Global temperatures have increased by 1 degree Fahrenheit this century and will probably increase quicker.

__Act 2-__ Interview with Mr. Gay Questions: Thomas: Do you think global warming is natural or man-made and why? Youssef: What do you know about global warming? Robby: How do you think global warming affects animals and humans? All of us: THANK YOU MR.GAY!

__Act 3__ Thomas-Global warming disrupts millions of people daily because of destructive weather patterns and loss of habits by reducing carbon and greenhouse gas,you will not only make your personal living space better but you will save money. You can also recycle. This can save 2,400 pounds of carbon dioxide a year. Youssef-Also you can choose renewable energy. Some of these items are hybrid cars and florescent light bulbs. Robby-You can also buy organic foods as much as possible because organic soil capture and store carbon dioxide at much higher levels than regular soil.If we grew all of our soybeans and corn,we'd remove 580 billion pounds of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere! Thomas-Also you can pick a electricity company that generates at least half its energy from wind. You can also wrap your water heater in an insulation blanket. By doing this you can save 1,000 pounds of carbon dioxide a year. Youssef- Global Warming is really kicking in now. Robby- Today and yesterday were very hot for this time of year. Thomas-Temperatures were in the 60's All- We need to get together and stop global warming now!
