Global warming

1. Watch a short documentary from National Geographic explaining what global warming is and alerting about its consequences (there's a glossary and you can also see the script).

2. A very funny video about a very serious problem: The President of the most polluting country in the world (at that time) didn't care too much about global warming. Here, Will Ferrell makes a Parody of George Bush talking about this issue. In this parody we can forget about our worries and just laugh about it.
