We can do a lot to slow down climate change, but so can adults! Sometimes they just need a friendly reminder….
Ruby and friends in the United States tell adults “Give us hope!” You can sing along!
Give us hope. Global warming’s a problem.
Can you see? Look at the air!
Can you feel? The temperature is rising!
Give us hope, and kids’ll show you the way!
Help stop global warming and create a good future for kids around the world!
