GO GREEN

What is global warming?Well, let me tell it to you in this way-Lets see, you are sleeping in bed in middle of the night with at least 6 fat blankets over you then suddenly, you start to fell super doper hot and sweaty. So what do you do? Well you probably would just kick of the blankets and go back to sleep. So now, picture the earth. Certain gases that have been collecting around the earth for around 100 years are creating a big and heavy blanket around the world.so heat from the sun starts to get trapped under that heavy blanket and the earth starts to feel hot. But now here is the problem, the earth cant kick of the giant blanket like you can. This is called global warming.
