Thousands of students across the United States were going to walkout of school on Friday to demand action on climate climate change. Max Prestigiacomo is organizing a demonstration in Madison, Wisconsin. The Green New Deal is what the students are protesting for. Some students are upset because it seems like the political climate in the States right now is doing nothing and it is bargaining with their future. They are trying to put for this New Deal to have a better future. The Green New Deal is a set of proposed economic stumulus progams in the United States that aims to address climate change and economic inequality.

1. Do you believe that the Green New deal should be passed. Why or why not?
I believe that the Green New Deal should be passed since global warming has increased over the years.
2. Would you participate in a protest like this one or similar to it?
I would most likely attend one but not be a major leader in it. It is for a good cause though so it would be cool to attend one.

Good job oveerall Jandy. I do think your summary is a bit brief and also stay away from yes/no questions.
If the government isn't taking action, then the Green New Deal should be passed.
No because protesting isn't my thing.
I do not know if the Green new deal should be passed. It would be good that we take action if it is happening. However, I do not know if it is happening. I am not a person who likes to protest, I personally think it is a waste of my time.
I think it should be passed, because we need to take care of the planet and keep a safe, healthy place to live.
I might go, it would depend on who was doing the protest. I would be most comfortable if it was people my own age and people I knew.
I do not think that the Green New Deal should be passed until we know for sure why global climate is happening. There is a lot of controversial opinions and ideas around this. If I really believed in something then sure I'd participate in something like this.
I agree with some parts of the Green New Deal but not all. Some parts of it would be impossible to acheive. It would be cool to attend a protest like this but I woulnd't want to be a big part of it.
Some parts of the Green New Deal are very extreme but other parts could be extremely benefitual for the earth and the future populations. I agree that some parts are impossible to acheive but doing at least a little bit will make some difference.
Yes, I think it should be passed because it's for a good cause and global warming has been a big deal over the past years but it's not going to just stop in the next couple of days, it might take a while. I would attend but I would just be a supporter, no leader like you said but I would be there to support for the Green New deal.
Global warming has been getting worse and worse every day and if we don't take any action, it could end badly. I understand that it isn't going to go away in a few days, but the sooner we start, the sooner it will get better. Protests usually end with people get in troubleb so I definetly wouldn't be a leader.
I don't think that the green new deal should be passed because its too radical for this time and age. Some of what it has would be benefical, but in total its just too liberal in its grand scheme. I myself would not participate in a protest like this, since students have no right to vote as of their adolescent age, they should not really have a say in what goes on, as they may tend to make terrible choices.
