Global Warming Satire

The issues of today are an amalgamation of problems involving race, money, social issues, and government. Some choose to ignore these important matters in favor of staying ignorant or safe so they don’t have to get involved with world affairs that seemingly don’t affect them. Little do they know, by deceiving themselves into believing that they are playing it safe or choosing to be absurd and ignore what's really going on, they are endangering themselves as well as the people they love because these issues really do concern them. The 2016 elections are a prime example of what ignoring certain facts can do and result in. Some voters have realized they made the wrong choice and that in reality what they wanted was not what was promised by their

Those who claim that there is no evidence of global warming are blatantly ignorant because “the number of record high temperature events in the United States has been increasing, while the number of record low temperature events has been decreasing, since 1950” and it is hard not to acknowledge something that has been happening for a little over half a century (National Aeronautics and Space Administration). An increase in temperature is more detrimental than one might initially think because when they think of an increase in how hot it will be that summer it simply means more time at the beach, but in reality it so much more than that. In a documentary on an evangelical church’s camp program they focus on a select group of individual children and one child in particular is homeschooled and taught material from a creationist textbook. In one question from the textbook, it notes that summers in the United States have been warmer in the past few years which is already an inappropriate way of introducing the topic because it uses very watered down words to lessen the importance and severity that climate change really has on our environment. After introducing the idea of global warming it asks what is wrong with the reasoning that the evidence presented proves that it’s real and the child responds with, “It's only gone up 0.6 degrees” to which his mom replies, “Ah. Yeah, it is not really a big problem, is it? If you look at
