The Why Question
Why is global warming happening?
I believe that we (humanity) are the cause for global warming. We have consumed billions of non renewable resources that release Carbon Dioxide that trap heat within the atmosphere, causing the earth to warm up. However, our government continues to act as if global warming is not a threat to our life, but in fact in my lifetime, our life will change forever.
Global Warming Study
Tim Barnett also agrees with me. He said that "New computer models that look at ocean temperatures instead of the atmosphere show the clearest signal yet that global warming is well underway. "
Global Warming is real

Shirley Chisholm Timline
"My greatest political asset, which professional politicians fear, is my mouth, out of which come all kinds of things one shouldn't always discuss for reasons of political expediency."
This quote means so much to me because I believe that people fear the words from your mouth because in order for the people in power to stay in control, they need the majority of the population needs to be quiet.

I've been to the Mountain Top
Last Speech
The link is to a speech done by Martin Luther King Jr. the day before he was assinated. What was the message? How can it relate to our lives now? Why was the government afraid of him?
