Introduction




Our Social Justice topic is Climate Change, also known as Global Warming. This disaster in the making is the increase in the temperature of the earth’s near-surface air since the mid 20th century and its projected continuation. Most of the observed temperature increase since the middle of the 20th century was very likely caused by increasing concentrations of greenhouse gases resulting from human activity such as fossil fuel burning and deforestation. This topic connects to social justice because the earth is Gods creation and we are destroying it and that is unholy.



My name is Dominic Rodiack and I am a senior at Serra. I was interested in Global Warming because it is a topic that effects not just people in 3rd world countries or people in the ghetto, but it affects everyone I know and that changes my view on how we should treat our environment. I have also been interested in electric powered cars for a while because they are a cool new innovation and they were made at first because of the environmental problems that we are having by going green and not using fossil fuels. Being green and economically friendly has now become and important part of my life because I feel that the earth is more important then anything.



My name is Morgan Petiti and I am also a senior at Serra. I have an interest in Global Warming because since I was little, I was taught to always go green. I was told to recycle, use greener cars, and to do anything I could to make this environment better. Since learning about Global Warming and the effects that it has on everyone around us, I feel that people also need to start to learn to be greener. There are simple steps to help this environment go back to how it use to be, and with the help of this project, I hope to project these solutions and make this world a grrener world.
