Hello from the Third Grade students at Central Elementary School,

We are reporting from Edgewater, Maryland, near Annapolis. We think the most important issue that President Obama is facing is Global Warming.

"Global warming is bad for the environment, because if we don't recycle, we will kill more trees and that hinders our ability to live on oxygen." -Cole M.

"It is also bad for the environment because polar ice caps are melting and polar bears are losing their homes and dying." -Arthur J. 

"Every summer it gets hotter, so the ice is melting in Antartica and the penguins are dying." -Sofia B.

"We now have to make stronger houses because of stronger weather patterns." -Gillian N.

"So now we have to start recycling more and stop throwing trash in several places, like the Chesapeake Bay." -Addie U.

"The more people recycle, the better our earth will be." -Helen D.

Question for discussion: How can you help stop global warming?"
