Omg the second I saw it within up there my first thought was: that sounds like something out of Harry Potter! Thanks for the tidbit.

As progressive as Reddit can be in other areas, there is a huge amount of hatred and prejudice against Muslims. The most downvoted and argued comments I ever make are the ones defending Muslim people for being people.

Last year, my Nana was in the hospital for five months, and had treatment that included surgery, medication, rehab, the works. We paid for parking when we came to visit her (only when we wanted to park on the fancy hospital lot), and we paid for tv and phone service to her room. I don't know the total cost but it was negligible. Am Canadian.

Hey OP... My God, these questions. If you ever make it all the way to mine, you have my sincere thanks.

I want to ask you about something that's very important to me and should be increasingly important to everyone, after the most recent IPCC report: climate change.

We are quite evidently facing a time of unprecedented risk to individuals, species, and perhaps multi-cellular life as we know it.

I know this may seem outside the scope, but your new position of power may give you some opportunity to influence the environmental impact of school practices in your community, and perhaps even affect what is communicated to the youth in your district about the environment, and how informed they are. We're also at a time where everyone needs to pitch in and do there part.

My question to you is this: with all of the support from the community that you have, do you have any plans to use your influence and power to affect environmental practices and perceptions in your area? If so, what do these plans include?

I mean, if it becomes warmer more often and if summers are longer, can we expected to see these deaths increase? If so, it does very much relate to global warming even if it's not an immediate or direct cause of death.
