students on Global Warming? |

would be a good idea. |

| Q: What is being done in your country
or city on global warming? |
| A: The government has funding
restrictions on various state projects based
on air pollution levels in the cities. If a
city does not meet the requirements they
have a specific amount of time to take steps
to get the air pollution to an acceptable
level. If these levels are not met they lose
a percentage or in some cases all of their
federal funding. |

care about global warming? |

grandchildren that will be affected the
most. |
| |
| Q: As kids and teenagers, how can we
prevent global warming in a cool way?
|
| A: I think it would be really cool to
have an electric car. We can also try to
save electricity as much as possible because
the power plants put emissions in the air,
the more we can conserve the less emissions
the power plants put in the air. |
