 * What?** A new type of disease caused by global warming that it almost wipes out the human population. In addition, ocean levels rise.
 * When?** around 2058
 * Where?** All over the world
 * How?** Global warming causes new diseases to form and a majority of the people die, because they are not immune to them. (However a lucky few are)
 * Who?** People all around the world.

April 27, 2059 Dear Diary, What is happening to the world? Everything is complete chaos these days. I say it’s all to blame on global warming. Which is, the world should have made more of an effort in the past trying to prevent it from happening when they could. Now, everywhere I go, it’s boiling hot and there people who are ill. Even worse: the ocean levels are now so high that there is little land to even be on. There are so many people where i am now. In addition to that, the hospital is no longer safe or available, because mostly everyone there has this new sickness that is extremely contagious. It is simply awful. According to the scientists, global warming caused this new disease to form. And I’m so scared. Its causing almost everyone around the to die at an alarming rate. I don't even know what happened to half the people I know. I’m currently at this shelter like place where we will be staying temporarily. Me and my family was more of the more fortunate ones to get a place to live in. (Even though it is really cramped and stuffy, its better than being not having anywhere to stay.) Several people drowned due to the rise in sea level. I feel horrible for them; i hope the rest of the world population will be ok.

April 29, 2059 Dear Diary, Today must be one of my most awful and shocking days. This new disease is now everywhere. It nearly took my whole family away! Why must this happen? Why? I miss my mom and brother terribly. Just the thought of them makes me want to cry! I don’t even know what the symptoms of this disease even are; and they wouldn’t let me see my mom and brother because they say it’s too terrible for me to see. But now, as the days go on, there seem to be fewer and fewer people everywhere I go. Furthermore, everyone- including my dad, and me, is fleeing to the tops of mountains, or at least where the ground level is higher, where there is a less chance of us all drowning. Furthermore, no one even knows what's going on it the world. Thats one of the many things that frightens me. Is everything really happening? I feel like I’m trapped in a horrid nightmare that i cant get away from.

May 3, 2059 Dear Diary, We are now at a place where the ground level is higher. I don’t even know where we are. There is not that many people here, I suppose most people didn’t survive. This new sickness does not seem to be present. present either. I hope that’s the last I will see of it. What will happen to the rest of us now? Almost everything is underwater and I doubt that we have a life long supply of things to live off of. But then do i know? I lost almost everything because of global warming now.I just hope everything gets better Diary Entry By: Jiwon Cheong

__Global Warming...What’s Happening?__

Global Warming are melting the north and the South Pole at a rate faster then ever before. The melted ice all contributes to the rise in water level. The effects due to the rise in water level include harsh climate changes and unpredictable destructive weather patterns. Continuous floods happen all over then world and hurricanes sweep the bay area. This results in the destruction of countless homes and even two of the most powerful countries, America and China, are struggling to keep civilization. Islands including Hawaii, Fiji, are below sea level drowning mass population. Only the wealthy survive through private ships and airplanes. The rest are left behind in the city underwater. Sudden changes also shaped the population of plants and animals. The pyramid has been broken and is becoming more and more unbalanced by the second. Plants are becoming extinct in certain areas and the animal populations are dramatically decreased. This also affects the human population. Food prices have sky rocketed because food became scarce. The unfavorable weather conditions fail the success of a good harvest. Overall conditions at present stake seem to get worse without an end.

__A New Disease__

Recently, there also has been an outbreak of an epidemic. Currently, the top medical scientists have gathered in Tokyo, Japan, and are researching about this new disease. So far, they were able to conclude that the new disease is contagious. It is also somewhat life threatening but with some chance of survival. There are theories that a percentage of the world's population actually might be immune to this new disease. There have been already some who have died because of this disease. Doctors have tried their best to save the victims; however, they say there is too little known about the disease for there to be a cure.

"As much as we want to save these people, we can't deny the fact that we lack knowledge in this new disease. There are rarely any symptoms before the patient goes through fatal suffering. We are able to keep their life span to continue but many prefer passing away. We simply need more time. I mean, we don't even have a name for this disease yet!" said Dr. Brown of Brown University.

__Future?__

The new disease is becoming the number one reason for death of all ages. Current research shows that there is not much the scientists can really do. Many have already given up and are enjoying the rest of their lives with their friends and families. Many question what will happen to the future.

"Frankly speaking, I can not predict the future and I don't think anyone else can either. I hope there will be a cure for this abrupt outbreak of the disease soon and also to find a way to bring the weather back on our side. For now, lets just hope for the best and pray to God. God bless America!" (Said by the President of America)

Still chances remain that only the people who are immune to this disease will be able to survive. It is said that this will be the 1% of the world's population. As time pass, these people might one day confront each other and re-create the world.

Dear Michele,

I hope that you will be still safe when this letter arrives. I am worried of how are you doing in these days. In Korea, the temperature is rising continuously, which is almost to 40 C. The news and the reports from the newspapers and the televisions are making me more hopeless. Nobody has identified clearly or discovered the solution of this dreadful disease. Also, the continents are drowning down because of the melting glaciers, so the places to live are decreasing gradually. Right now this world is full of confusion and people are living with horror because of the disease, so as I. As everyday passes, the pressure of death becomes intense, and I am living as thinking today might be the day that I get infected by that disease. It is quite painful of watching people around me dying day by day, and I am almost being the only person in my neighborhood. It also makes me think a lot that I might be dead today or tomorrow. These days I feel loneliness and sorrowful; I hope someday the vaccine for this mysterious disease would appear.

I often regret that I was not aware of the global warming several years ago. I thought that it would be not that harmful and not affect during my whole life. However as I experience the actual situation, I realize that I should have considered more about the global warming in the past. Anyway, I wish this chaotic situation ended as soon as possible, hopefully. Someday I would like to see you soon as possible.

Sincerely, Allison Lee

An epidemic overcomes the whole world and there are only a few people in the world that are immune to it. Global warming reached a certain heat level and it caused the AIDS virus to mutate and turn into a whole another dangerous virus that is so far incurable that paralyzes the whole body and in a matter of days, their throats clamp on and they stop breathing and die. This virus is only immune to the people have had AIDS cured before. This disease came from contaminated water which went to the crops which everyone ate. The only people that survived was people that had AIDs cured and also that are very rich. There seems to be….

Staci, Soyon, Sang Woo and Hyun's response: First, we want you to applaud for the effort you have put in to that project. We can clearly conclude your groups thoughts that you want to tell or show the historians that will examine 50 years later. However, we, as a group think that you guys and girls could of done better on your project and communicate more in order to make a better outcome. We, analyze that the information is really similar to the movie “I am Legend.” Also, there is a lack of stimulation that can affect people and show the historians in the future visually. As a conclusion, we think that the overall project is successful but you guys and girls can always have room to improve for a better quality.
