Global warming upsets the flow of ocean currents, resulting in more extreme weather, as well as changes in regular weather patterns, that happen faster than climate change over the past thousands and millions of years.

She did deserve it. But he also stooped to her level. She started it, but both showed a complete lack of maturity, Both chose to destroy themselves and another person.

You can buy a sweater from hundreds of different retailers. People want to give money to companies they feel represents their ideals, they want to buy from companies who are "good".
