Mr. Galileo Arrested
by HarryT
“Mom, our teacher has been arrested. Police came into our science class and took Mr. Galileo away.”
“I was afraid something like this was going to happen,” Mom said, “ever since the President appointed climate deniers to run the Environmental Protection Agency."
“Mom, the principal told us that he has been listening in on our science classes and reported Mr. Galileo because he tells us lies about climate change. He said Mr. Galileo violated an Executive Order signed by the President forbidding the teaching of climate change, making it a treasonous offense."
“The truth is,” Mom said, “the neglecting of the environment is profiting the President’s favored industries. He is devastating our forests, increasing air pollution and destroying the natural habitat for birds and animals. Unfortunately, when the media report the increasing damage to the environment the President calls it ‘fake news.’”
“Mom, who is going to help Mr. Galileo?”
