Taking Action Against Global Warming Global warming is a frequently talked about topic in today’s society. It has already started to take an effect on our universe and is a challenge that the United States is being faced with. “The U.S. produces nearly a quarter of the world's greenhouse gases each year and has stubbornly made it clear that it doesn't intend to do a whole lot about it”(Walsh). The United States needs to stand up and take responsibility for it actions and develop a plan to fix it. Both of the images of Time magazine cover titled “How to Wine the War on Global Warming”(Hochstein) and “polar bear clinging to a shrinking ice floe”(Wood 9) make it a point to express the importance of global warming and the issues that we will be faced with due to it.
Many families enjoy going on a cold vacation, like skiing in Colorado, but why when you could go somewhere sunny and beautiful, like the Florida Keys? Going on vacation is always fun and exciting, but we all dread packing. Whether it’s packing to leave or packing to go home, it’s never fun. Packing for a cold vacation is a lot different then for a warm one. Getting out the big suit case is a given.
In paragraph nineteen, “the rain was coming down in sheets obscuring the view of far-off cabins and enveloping the distant wood in gray mist” (paragraph nineteen), this implies the storm is giving them privacy to do whatever they want. In paragraph twenty, the first physical contact between them happens when a lightning bolt struck a tree nearby and Alcee spasmodically draws Calixta closer to him and “the contact of her warm, palpitating body when he had unthinkably drawn her into his arms, had aroused all the old time infatuation and desire for her flesh” (paragraph twenty one).

Most homes aren’t specially designed for the annual storms that Havana achieves.
When the director talked a lot to Meursault about his mother, Meursault felt that he does not want to hear anymore probably because reminding him of his mom was annoying him and this quote shows it “but I wasn’t really listening anymore” (Camus 5). In Meursault’s journey to Marengo, he dozes in the bus, Camus clarifies that it was from the gasoline smell in the ride but it should not be just the gasoline, probably dozed of from his mental and physical discomfort he is in after his mother’s death. This actually made him very sensitive, for example getting annoyed the sun or fainting because of a smell. Because of the poor situation Meursault is in, when the soldier wakes him up, he asks him if he has been for a long time there and Meursault answers “yes” (Camus 4).

I couldn’t make it” he says to his wife Linda. Willy couldn’t drive anymore and he was not performing his job as well as he believed he did.

But I thought, for now, getting to my hotel, The Talbott (an incredible place and reasonably priced with an amazing view), and finding a few tours wouldn’t hurt. The next morning I prepared for the city to ravish me. I was lucky to be there in the fall, the gentle wind and tranquil surroundings easily beat the nose-chiselling blasts of icy air in the winter, and the stuffy, over-crowdedness of the summer. I decided the best way to get accustomed to this intriguing city was by exploring a little on my own. Michigan Avenue, an arterial road in downtown Chicago, was bristling with theatres, art galleries, restaurants, museums and an enigmatic metal sculpture by Picasso.
It’s an exciting time, and the feeling is like no other when you think you know what you’re in store for. Boy was he misguided. By the time travel has concluded he is exhausted.
