00:00:01.760 --> 00:00:04.240
I'm Kaylee with the very special weather
report.

00:00:04.240 --> 00:00:06.160
From up there to down here.

00:00:06.160 --> 00:00:07.600
Everything is crazy.

00:00:07.920 --> 00:00:09.640
If we don't listen to scientists,

00:00:09.640 --> 00:00:12.080
things are going to be even crazier when I grow up.

00:00:12.440 --> 00:00:14.760
let's look at the forecast for 2050.

00:00:14.880 --> 00:00:17.760
Heat waves will affect 94% of children

00:00:17.760 --> 00:00:20.560
making playing outside a thing of the past.

00:00:20.560 --> 00:00:22.680
Extreme droughts will wipe out wheat crops,

00:00:22.680 --> 00:00:25.160
killing the one food my brother eats,

00:00:25.160 --> 00:00:26.040
bread.

00:00:26.040 --> 00:00:30.120
Disasters will cost taxpayers
almost $6 trillion.

00:00:30.200 --> 00:00:31.800
My parents hate taxes.

00:00:31.800 --> 00:00:36.160
Of course, all of this is caused
by a blanket of heat trapping pollution

00:00:36.160 --> 00:00:38.720
in the atmosphere that we could just like,

00:00:39.320 --> 00:00:40.920
not put up there?

00:00:41.000 --> 00:00:44.000
But don't worry,
there's still a chance of clear skies.

00:00:44.000 --> 00:00:47.640
Right now, clean
energy systems are moving in from the east

00:00:47.640 --> 00:00:50.680
to the west, creating tons of cool jobs.

00:00:50.920 --> 00:00:54.360
And solar prices have dropped
lower than oil and gas.

00:00:54.520 --> 00:00:55.920
Going through the satellite,

00:00:55.920 --> 00:00:59.280
it looks like a high pressure
system of going grownups could still move in

00:00:59.280 --> 00:01:02.720
and protect kids
from an avalanche of really bad stuff.

00:01:02.800 --> 00:01:05.760
Some gusty political ones ahead,
but they are no match

00:01:05.760 --> 00:01:08.280
for the power of Hurricane Felicia.

00:01:08.280 --> 00:01:09.640
That's my mom.

00:01:09.640 --> 00:01:11.760
We'll keep you posted as we track

00:01:11.760 --> 00:01:13.680
if adults stop wasting time

00:01:13.680 --> 00:01:16.400
and fix this totally solvable problem

00:01:16.480 --> 00:01:19.160
because it's not just a weather
report to us.

00:01:19.160 --> 00:01:20.960
It's our future.
