Hi I'm Clara!
And I'm Ben, and we're best friends!
We're going to...
FRIDAYS FOR FUTURE!
What is 'Fridays for future?'
We should be in school...but politicians aren't taking climate change seriously enough! But if we do something like skipping school...maybe they'll do something too!
Have you ever been to a climate change demonstration?
But sometimes we get in trouble for skipping school.
Ahh I wish that the politicians would do something! All they say is bla bla bla!!
Bla bla bla!!! Bla bla bla!!
Bla bla bla!!! Hahaha Ben you're funny! Now come on we have to go!
Go where?
To Fridays for future!

Question
of
Hey Clara, can I ask you a question?
Hey Ben, of course you can.
Why are you always separating paper and plastic in the recycling bin? That's so disgusting to touch things in the bin, YUCK!
Because "There's no Planet B!!"
What?? What are you talking about?
Climate change Ben!!! The world is getting hotter, the polar ice caps are melting...and we need to do something about it....recycling helps!
Recycling??
What is recycling?
Climate change is real Ben, we need to do something...let's find out why!
What happens because of global warming?
What is happening to the temperature of the planet?
Wow, if the sea levels are rising and the planet is getting hotter...how does that affect us?
How does global warming affect us?
It's a serious matter, which is why we have to act now because...
There's no planet B!
Exactly!

Omg Clara, did you see what was written on the news??
No?? What??
They said that climate change is over and that the world is getting cool again!
WHAT?! That's fake news! We need to be careful with what we read. What about these next statements...
In the summer of 2022, England had the same temperatures as India during the spring, 40 degrees.
You swiped
Correct! England was the same temperate as India due to the rising heat! The temperate of England during the summer is usually 21 degrees. It increased by almost double.
In the 2022 Brandenburg wild fires, the rising of temperatures caused 5km of forest to be burnt from fires.
You swiped
It wasn't 5km of forest that got burnt in the Brandenburg wild fires, it was 8km! This was caused by the temperature being hotter than normal.
Woah so much land got burnt in Brandenburg because of the heat. That is so close to Berlin!
Yes and almost 600 people had to leave their homes.
Since the Pakistan floods began in June 2022, 1/3 of Pakistan became under water in the time of 3 months.
You swiped
Due to heavy rain, 1/3 of Pakistan has been lost under floods in only 3 months. Crops, food and families have all been affected leaving the country in a state of desperation.
The best way to recycle and deal with plastic is crushing it into tiny pieces and hiding it in the ocean.
You swiped
Incorrect, 12 million tonnes of plastic are poured into the ocean every year and this is killing our ocean wild life.
Due to the rising heats, animals have soooo much food to eat! This means that they will not go extinct (erloschen) !
You swiped
Wrong! Due to rising temperatures, food is drying out. Animals such as rhinos, tigers, elephants and pandas are starving.
Woah that is so sad, I would hate for animals to become extinct because of climate change.
I know, it is crazy. Hopefully people will start to do something about the problem.

Hey Klara! Can I ask you something?
Of course, what is it?
I have a tin can that I want to recycle. But do I need to wash the food out of it first?
A tin can?? Ohhhhh, eine Dose! Yes you need to wash the food out first!
Oh that's helpful to know! Let's find out what else is helpful or unhelpful for the environment...
Planting more trees.
You swiped
Planting trees is a very helpful way to help the environment because they produce more oxygen which our world needs!
Driving a car to get places quicker!
You swiped
Driving a car adds more and more carbon dioxide to our planet, which makes the planet get hotter!
Eating meat for nice tasty meals!
You swiped
To make sure animals are nice and juicy for our meaty meals - we have to chop down lots of forest land for the animals to live. This creates so much carbon dioxide because the trees are chopped down. And..did you know, that a cow's fart is deadly for the environment because their gas contains methane, a toxic gas!
Reusing your shopping bags at the grocery shop.
You swiped
Reusing your shopping bags means less plastic bags are needed...great!
Woah there are so many different things we can do!
Crushing up plastic super small and storing it at the bottom of the ocean.
You swiped
Plastic contains harmful chemicals which is killing sea life, coral and causing animals to die.
Riding a bike.
You swiped
Riding a bike gets you from A to B producing zero carbon dioxide! Woohoo!
Eating a vegetarian diet.
You swiped
Eating vegetarian helps reduce pollution and deforestation (the chopping down of trees). Eating a veggie diet means 2.5 x less carbon emissions than a meat diet. And is super healthy for your body, whilst letting animals live!
Woah, I LOVED learning about all the helpful things we can do! Now time to go home...
How are you going to get there?
Most definitely...by bike! Woohooooo!

You've changed so much, you never talk to me anymore. All you care about is your social media profile...
It's called being an 'Eco warrior' Ben!
No, it's being a bad friend.
Social media getting in the way of friendship.

Hey Ben...
Don't you mean "#heyben" ??
That's not funny!
Well all you care about is your social media presence. But what about our friendship? You're so distracted by social media!
Was bedeutet distracted?
I know, I'm sorry. I felt like it was my responsibility to act for climate change. But it is the responsibility of everyone, not just me.
Was bedeutet responsibilty?
We can still fight climate change without ignoring our friends. But if you care about social media so much, I feel ignored.
Was bedeute ignored?
I won't ignore you anymore. Our friendship is more important than how many likes my posts get!
Thank you. Now let's go and fight climate change with everybody...because like you said...
Yes??
It's all our responsibility, not just yours!
