During the visit, Billy has a conversation with them. (Lights on) (SSA,B,C trembling in cold when A walks near and gives out lunchboxes to them.) SSA: I feel cold! SSB: I ’ m hungry! SSC: I feel cold and hungry! SSA: Oh, lunchbox! (Holding a lunchbox) Hey, it’s mine . SSB: No , it’s mine . (Trying to grab the lunchbox) (SSA & SSB start fighting). A: Stop! Everyone can get one. There you go. (Giving out lunchboxes to SSA,B,C) SSA,B,C: Thanks, young boy! You ’ re an angel! A: You ’ re welcome. How’s going? This winter is long and cold. SSA: Not very good until your help. Last month it was only 4 degree Celsius. I thought I would be frozen to death. SSB: I t’s so bad especially under this situation. You know what? (Louder) The average temperature of this month is only 13.2 degree Celsius. Also, it rains so much that all our clothes and blankets have got wet. SS C: That’s why we need help. We have no shelter and the temperature is so low; we can’t even keep ourselves warm! A: It seems you guys are having a harsh time. But why? SSC: Who knows? We just want to survive. 1

Scene 2 Narrator: Meanwhile, Eddy is having a trip in Thailand with his family. He goes snorkeling this morning. (Lights on) (Eddy and Guide keep swimming during the conversation) Eddy: Oh! I can see many fish. Amazing! The sea is so beautiful. Guide, where can we see the coral reefs? (Guide stops) Guide: Coral reefs ? I’m sorry. It’s hard to find massive coral reef s in this region now. Many species have disappeared over the past ten years. Eddy: What a pity! Guide: The beautiful colours of the coral reef are fading and marine life is not as rich as before. They all have to do with the climate change. It’s so sad. Eddy: Oh my god! My leg…My leg is cramping! Help! Guide: (Sigh) Such a wimpy kid … (Lights off) Scene 3 (Stewards put 3 chairs in centre stage. Billy, Eddy and Peggy take the seats) Narrator: After the Lunar New Year holiday, Billy, Eddy and Peggy meet at a fast food shop. (Lights on) C: Hey guys . How’s your holiday? A & B: Pretty good. A: I took part in volunteer work and visited the street sleepers . It’s meaningful. I have come to know that they are having a harsh time as the weather is unusually cold. C: You had a fruitful holiday! How about you, Eddy? B: I went to Thailand. I had a good time snorkeling in the sea. C: Cool! Did you see the beautiful coral reefs? B: No, I wish I had. But the fact is there are hardly any massive coral reefs now. A: I wonder why these happen. Why has the weather become that unusual? C: Didn ’ t you guys pay attention in geography lessons ? It’s because of global warming! B: What? But it ’ s freezing cold in winter. Isn ’ t global warming supposed to increase the temperature? There is the word ‘warming’ on it! C: Weather imposes its own dramatic ups and downs over the long- term trend. That’s why it’ s unusually hot in summer and unusually cold in winter in recent years. A: Why does global warming occur? C: It ’ s because of the industrial activities of humans! These activities emit greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide, which trap the heat from the sun in the Earth ’ s atmosphere. Eventually the earth gets warmer and warmer. A: How can we stop it? C: We can ’ t stop global warming; but we can do our part to slow it down, like we can use less electricity. A & B: Peggy! You are a genius! C: (Laugh out loudly, feeling very proud) Of course! Let me tell you … . 2

A & B: Hey, we got to go to play LOL. Bye. C: (Sigh and shake her head) Ordinary people always misunderstand the thought of genius. (Leave slowly) ~ END ~ (All participants come to the stage and bow to the audience) 3
