Hi I am Matt. I am 14 years old and I first heard about this when my mom tried to get me to go see Al Gore’s movie last summer. I was reluctant to go see it. My mom liked it so much that she bought it. I then had to do a project on global warming and I asked if I could see that movie. It was a very disturbing.
When I first heard about climate change I was disturbed to here about what was going to happen to a lot of the animals. In Al Gore’s movie he talked about the Polar bears. I felt like there was something we could do to help. In my Human Geo class we were told to write a 12-page research paper on anything that was related to the whole world. I decided doing it on global warming.
I hope that through doing this Teen Press Project I could get the world out to other people that either didn’t know what was happening or didn’t believe that it was happening.
I want to help by slowing down global warming and helping save some of the animals and places we live in today. One of the main things I want to do is to stop or slow down the sea level rise so that Santa Barbara will still be here in a couple of hundred years.
