Do we need to be worried about the temperature dropping and rising so suddenly? “I feel like fall is supposed to be a really cold season but recently it’s becoming really hot,” Emily Li stated. Recent changes in the weather made more people question if there is something going on with the environment. If there was no interest in this matter before, it has now changed; more people have started to develop fear and demand answers.

The fear began to rise when the temperature suddenly increased in the middle of the fall. In addition, it is greatly noticeable that summers have gradually gotten hotter too. The increase in precipitation is something else many are concerned about. It is possible that if it continues to rain this way, there may be an overflow in seas and oceans.

Animals seem to be suffering the most as climate change has negative effects on the habitats of many species. On October 4, more than 100 dolphins in the Amazon river were found dead on the beach due to lakes being too hot for them.

Sophomore Cassandra Miller shared her opinion on this matter. She suggests, “…try to switch more into purely electric cars that do not have gasoline.” She believes that people could help the environment this way, instead of polluting the Earth with gas. 

This seems to be only the beginning of global warming, and hopefully now, people will start to understand the seriousness of their actions.
