PLAY Page to stage/ MS.Ferhani and Mr.Batt

SETTING: There is one NASA scientist and a boy who has just won a trip to the NASA institute in Texas and he is talking to the NASA scientist talking about global warming and the scientist is a global warming specialist. CHARACTERS:

1: TOM a NASA scientist who is not afraid to say anything as long as he has a reason to say it. He has a lot of courage and will stand for what he believes in. He's a hard worker and he doesn’t like what the Bush administration is doing about global warming.

2: JERRY a boy that is about 15-16 years old and has just studied global warming and he is very angry to find out that the Bush Administration is cencoring information about global warming but hes afraid to speak.

JERRY: Hello my name is Jerry and I would like to say Good job on what you did yesterday! (exited)

TOM: Thank you I at least wanted to tell the public that were not allowed to talk about Global warming.

JERRY: True, I also like how you said that the Bush administration is the reason why we are not allowed to say anything. I like that you said that its not fair that we're not allowed to say anything about our studies.

TOM: Thats because I want everyone to know the reason why NASA is not allowed to say anything. And how do you know about this stuff.

JERRY: Well I started learning about this in class and I wanted to know more by talking to you about Global Warming and why the Bush Administration wont let you say stuff.

TOM: Wow good for you that you want to join. I do agree with you that Bush is really not setting a good example to cencore these things cause the government should know about these things.

JERRY: Well I think that if I were the one that has information about global warming then I wouldn’t say anything if the government isn't going to let me.

TOM: Why? (in a proud voice) I think if you have information that the government wants to censor then you should just tell the people anyways.

JERRY: What do you mean?

TOM: Well for example when I said that it was unfair that Bush administration is not letting me speak about how I can’t say anything about my studies about Global Warming. I didn’t think I should not say anything because the authority won’t let me. So I went out there and said what I needed to say.

JERRY: (nervous about what he is about to say) But even though you said that I don’t you still think that its unfair that you didn't say anything about global warming? Cause I mean that’s not going to help the public.

TOM: Well duh. I would get in serious trouble, however the word will go out that the atmosphere is thinning and the north pole is melting heck, the north pole is melting right now! So the word will spread. Also all the other scientist are speaking up and even some scientist are talking about how in Alaska some little towns are melting so that word is starting to spread.

JERRY: Wow I didn't know that. I guess that Bush isn't really making everyone change there mind about global warming.

TOM: That's not exactly true Bush has been telling people that global warming isn't really bad like he said that global warming is really called climate change witch is not that scary to people.

JERRY: Oh I thought that nothing was really happening with people changing there mind. Cause what im studing in class the Global Warming has been progressively worse.

TOM: No that's not true. Well kind of because the world hasn’t been doing much to change.

JERRY: Well then what have you found out?

TOM: In my studies I found that what I said about the Global Warming isn't something to not worry about.(frustrated)

JERRY: Well how do you know that?

TOM: I know this because the government is still burning a lot of fossil fuels like oil, gas, and coal.

JERRY: Yea but what’s the big deal about that?

TOM: Well its increasing the carbon dioxide in the earth's atmosphere and that makes the tempter rise and that is what makes the ice melt and having more droughts and things like changing the weather.

JERRY: That’s stuff that I hear protesters say.

TOM: Yea and there right. See even some people know that its true and they cant tell people because they don't the people don't believe them.

JERRY: Maybe what if we could get in big trouble just for saying one thing.

TOM: Then they would get in trouble with the government. But they are doing something right because they know that the government is wrong.

JERRY: Yea that’s true its a good thing no one says anything.

TOM: Well that's not always true do you know James Hansen?

JERRY: Well yes he's the NASA scientist who says things that are bad about global warming.

TOM: Yes and if he didn't say anything then we would not know a lot about what happens in this world with global warming.

JERRY: OOOO that makes more sense.

TOM: Yup now global warming isn't something that is over in a couple years its going to take way more then that for it to finish so that’s why its been such a long time and nothing has happened.

LOUD SPAKER: ALL KIDS FROM TEXAS HIGH TIME TO GO!!

JERRY: Ok thanks for the talk it really opened my eyes to more thing about global warming.

TOM: That was a great talk kid. At least I know that someone cares.

JERRY: Alrite thanks for the grate talk. Also thanks for all this great information.
