    After reading, To Teach: The Journey, In Comics, by William Ayers, I agreed with his beliefs and convictions about teaching. His beliefs are very different than most teachers that I have had in the past in many different ways. For one, my teachers always had us sit in assigned seats that never changed and were in rows with their desk in the back of the classroom.

The best ways to learn is by having open discussions and applying the material to everyday life which is not usually done in a lecture-style classroom.…

    “Climate Hoax” was created by Pat Bagley from the Salt Lake Tribune in attempt to criticize the general attitude in regards to the crisis of global warming. Unlike, the first image, no one event sparked the illustrator’s criticism, rather the public as a whole did. As seen in these two cartoons, in addition to the public inadequately legitimizing issues, policymakers often wait to take action until the public takes action. However, the public frequently fails to do so due to their blatant disregard for some issues. So, in order for the Flint water crisis and global warming to be addressed properly, the public has to actively speak up for the lack of attention these issue are getting.…

    If we don’t try and reverse and reduce these effects, we could be seeing these effects for centuries to come. Our grandchildren could grow up without a rainforest and have to deal with rampant climate change and higher CO2 emissions.

The tens that symbolize the bills worth have been crossed out and changed to eight.…
