Hi peeps, this is global warming baton taken from Hachidori project. There's also a movie 'an inconvenient truth' about global warming ^^

Hummingbird

The forest was on fire.

All of the animals,
insects and birds in the forest rushed to escape.

But there was one little hummingbird named Kurikindi,
or Golden Bird,who stayed behind.
This little bird went back and forth between water and fire,
dropping a single drop of water from its beak onto the fire below.

When the animals saw this they began to laugh at Kurikindi.
"Why are you doing that?" they asked.

And Kurikindi replied,

"I am only doing what I can do"

We are now facing a significant problem with global warming.
How can we cool down our increasingly hot Earth?
Starting from the little things, try dropping your drop of water.
