"There would be a voice in my mind telling me not to because of the possible consequences, but I would still want to repair my equipment on my own and would still do it anyway. What John Deere is doing is super inconvenient for the farmer and they…"

"The coronavirus seems to me to be a virus whose seriousness is blown up. I do think that the governments need to be aware of a harmful virus and try to keep it under control, but to postpone and suspend all sporting events seems crazy to me. The…"

"As long as the animal didn't cause any serious problems, I'd be totally okay with having an animal at my wedding as a joke. It sounds hilarious. The joke works better with the tux, so if I had the extra money to expend I'd get llama and the tux. If…"

"I would not buy a mask because I think wearing it delivers the wrong message that I am sick and people need to stay away from me. Plus, there are other people that need them more than me. They said that contact with the mask and other people spreads…"

"I don't know much about what the differences are between the Democratic candidates (I know Biden is moderate and Bernie is on the left), but I know that I like Pete and my friends do too. He seems like a good person to me. Buttigieg is definitely an…"

"I wouldn't care if he threatened my family or me, I would tell the police. I would want the assaulting to stop, not just to me but the other kids who were also suffering. Put the coach in his place and make sure his scandalous behavior never happens…"

"The shelters seem to be helping as a dog got adopted soon after the pictures were put on the pizza boxes. Spreading awareness of the needs of the dogs could lead to more animals finding a loving home. Dogs were the first step, and I think that…"

"Finding a nice place to stay would be one big priority. Since I live close to Harlan, I would probably move in somewhere in town while my house gets fixed. I would also want to try to help out in reconstruction in whatever way I could. Once the…"

"First I would find out what street he is on and call the police. I think following him and tracking his every turn would be beneficial, but not provoking him as someone or I may receives some injuries. The bail to me seems like a reasonable amount…"

"I would feel immense dread and worry, even after people say not to panic. The family member who got it would have to be taken away from home for who knows how long, nobody would know if they would even survive the virus. Now that the virus is…"

"Fight back and defend myself and my daughter the best I could until I could escape to find help and call the police. The two attackers definitely need to be charged and punished for their attacks. They need to learn that there are other people in…"

"I would wait extra minutes to see the performance, especially since I would have paid to get into the concert. Personally, I'm not a fan of Maroon 5 but I don't hate them either. But if this did happen with a band I really like, I would probably be…"

"After going on a shopping trip, I'd probably save some money until I figure out what else to do with it. The biggest message I get from this story is to keep trying. Samantha has been a regular attendee and did what she loved, trying again and again…"

"Being famous for something like this sounds hilarious to me and I would love doing after coming over my initial fear and embarrasment. If I didn't dress up, I'd probably give the kids a bunch of satirical facts that were completely meant for making…"

"India's population is approximately 1.4 billion people, so there naturally will be a lot more people in the country that like him compared to other countries like North Korea. If Trump came to Harlan, I would go see him speak because the President…"

"Kirk Douglas did a very positive thing to want to give $50 million to charity. If the $10 million went to his family, that's still a ton of money for them. If I had his fortune, I would probably do something along the lines of what Douglas did and…"

"I have no knowledge (and probably never will) of using a piece of chewing gum to trace the DNA on it to a person, dead or alive. Picking up the gum would be something I would be concerned about not doing. I see no purpose in saving my gum after I've…"

"Like most people, I'd feel very uncomfortable and unsafe with patients sick with the infamous coronavirus moving into my hometown. It doesn't matter to me how well they are kept away from other people, the possibility of getting sick would still be…"

"I wouldn't want to touch an iguana lying on the ground whether I was allowed to or not. It's not that I find it gross, but what would I do with it? I don't want a foreign animal as a pet. It sounds like trouble keeping it a secret too. Of course…"

"I'd feel sad of course, but also would want to figure out the cause of death. Two players dying in two weeks, with one student being a star player, doesn't seem coincidental to me. I have no clue what an offensive anchor is, but I hope to believe…"

"When it comes to the police, I'd let them do what they need to do so I don't stir up a conflict. I do not believe that lying was necessary to get the DNA, as the police could have told the Holmes family they were trying to solve a recent murder…"

"NO. This seems like too much of a troubling process for me to ever want to be a part of it. I also think I'll never have $25,000 lying around with no purpose for it. As for putting my hopes into it, I said before I wouldn't want to take any part in…"

"The sandwich probably doesn't have much of a chance of making it to the US. I agree that the sandwich will probably have a short life span, and it will probably stay in New Zealand and the places around it. I think that the burger is okay, but I…"

"Places like Disney World would probably be in big trouble due to this, and that would totally change the lives of those who work there and own the place (Orland is 82 feet above sea level, so it's totally gone). Other flat zones like Florida are at…"

"I don't know where I will be living in the future, but I don't plan to stick around Iowa forever. I hope that wherever I go, I will  not have to worry about the sea levels rising. Humanity should act sooner than later to reduce the damage being done…"

"I agree with you one hundred percent of the way. The sooner humanity works to fight against climate change, the better off everyone will be. Something needs to be done before it becomes too late. "

"It must be a lot scarier for you than for us Iowans who hardly see the ocean, and I am sorry that may happen. I agree that humanity needs to work together to help the people affected and work to reduce further damage. Also, the animals will need…"

"I respect your opinion about climate change, but what do you mean by to an extent? Is it like you believe that there is some climate change but most of it is just exaggerated by the government? "

"There will definitely be long term effects, like the changing of ecosystems if the animals in the south are all gone. Also, the rising sea levels will, of course, effect humans near the oceans by forcing them to move out of their homes and to find a…"

"It's nice to see some humor on these posts, it made me smile! I say that humanity should at least try to reduce climate change before all of Antarctica is gone and so the animals keep a place to live. I like to think that there's still a chance for…"

"The animals would be kind of screwed over, since their home would be destroyed and relocating them can cause some ecosystem issues. I find it important that humanity tries to reduce the amount of climate change so that not all of Antartica ends up…"

"I don't think that Iowa will be completely unaffected. People will probably move into the rest of the country, including the midwestern states, which will effect us in a population increase. There will also likely be some consequences that we do not…"

"Working to reduce climate change is definitely a process, which is why the sooner humanity works together to minimize it the better off the planet, humans, and animals will be. I don't know what we can do as high schoolers, so it seems like the best…"

"That is a good point about pollution, which is another issue that humanity needs to work on as well. Pollution and climate change are definitely tied in the damage to the Earth and the ozone. I agree that there are consequenses that most of us are…"

"I saw someone make a good point that the flooding will cause people to move inland, which would result in an increase of population in midwestern states, so I global warming will affect us in that way. Perhaps there are more consequenses that none…"

"I agree with you that it is what the world needs to happen; global warming is a global effort. In the world's current state, however, it doesn't seem like the entirety of humanity is working together. The call for everyone to come together seems…"

"I agree with you that humans are a contributor to global warming. The sun getting hotter is another likely cause, which is unfortunately out of our control. I think that an impact will be made on the entire world, not just the people living by the…"

"I'm concerned about the animals because even if humanity manages to save them, if their habitat is gone it will be hard for them to survive. I don't know if we'd be able to have them live in the Arctic as that could cause unbalance in the ecosystem.…"

"I agree with what you say. The sooner humanity takes action the better, I believe. I don't know where I will want to live in the future, but I think that no matter where I go there will be some consequences, some of which we may not be able to…"

"The Netherlands has a large population so if a huge part of it floods like you say it will then that is a huge problem. And it will happen in other populated places of the world too, like New York City, like you said. I agree that something needs to…"

"I think that in order to help the animals, we need to try to preserve their habitat and put in an effort to keep the ice from melting so much. We may not be able to recover what has been lost, but humanity can try to at least preserve what we have. "

"You're right that we can't recreate what's already been lost in the Antarctic, but that's why I think humanity should work to make sure we don't lose anymore than what has been lost. I agree with you about the animals and needing to help them, but…"

"I remember seeing a point that someone made saying how the sun is getting hotter, so it is true that we are going through a warm time. Unfortunately, I don't know if a colder era will come anytime soon because of that. "

"To me, it seems like there's not a lot we can do as high schoolers to help reduce global warming, which makes the cause feel a little more hopeless. As for what our main focus should be, I believe that global warming should be prioritized not just…"

"The people moving inward bit is a very good point that I didn't think about, and I think a lot of people also don't realize that. I agree that immediate action is very much needed before too many effects become irreversable. "

"The process for helping the environment definitely seems like a lengthy process, so I hope that humankind can begin to fix the issue before it grows too late. And with nature balancing itself out, I agree that it will also take awhile, so the better…"

"I never really thought to think about how companies could be affected by rising sea levels, just the livelihoods of the average person. And you seem to be right that there's not much we can do at the current moment, which is a bummer."

"I agree that as long as we live in Iowa it's not a problem, but perhaps someone wants to live somewhere by the ocean in their future which would cause some issues. As for the cause of global warming, I never thought to take the sun into account, but…"

"The global warming and melting ice caps is definitely a problem that the entire world needs to come together to fix, for the sake of nature and for the benefit of humankind. Unfortunately, it's something that may not get resolved until it's too late…"
