Global Warming

The School for the Deaf Current Events class, has been learning about Global Warming and its impact on the Earth. We’ve learned what a destructive difference just two degrees can make to our world in nine and-a-half years. We know the food we eat has an impact on the planet, as well as the food packaging. We’ve looked at our carbon footprints and learned about “fast fashion”, and how much of it is made from petroleum. It wears out fast and ends up in landfills. We also know that wool is one answer to fast fashion; wool regulates temperature, and it’s a natural material that will decompose. We know we can’t do everything to protect our world, but perhaps we can each do something.
