Letter to Obama about Global Warming


May 6, 2013

President Barack Obama
1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW
Washington, DC 20500

Dear President Obama

My name is Sophia Abi-Saad and I am currently a student at Scituate High School in Scituate, Massachusetts. The purpose of this letter is to bring to your attention that without prevention, global warming will obliterate many species of animals and will affect the quality of life for future Americans. I encourage you as the President to act now, and to prevent a catastrophe to our environment.
 
In total, the U.S. emits approximately 6 billion tons of carbon dioxide every year, and every single day, the world emits 70 million tons. Also, in the last century the sea levels rose 7 inches, after not having changed in the previous 2,000 years. Although these facts have been released to the public, there still has not been any notable change in the way we live our daily live. 
 Awareness is not the issue; it is the lack of action. As the President, it is your duty to increase the quality of life for all. With the power you have as President you can influence American’s, by enforcing better means of production and crediting those who have stepped up to make a change. I have faith that you will not ignore this issue, unlike many other Americans. I brought this to your attention because I know with your devotion to humanity that things would get done, and you will make the world a better place.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
Sophia Abi-Saad
