Climate change has not gone away
Dania Saed, Year 11, Parliament Hill School, writes:
2020: the year that shook the world.
One year on and we are still in the midst of one of the greatest global crises the world has faced in history. Whilst Covid dominated the headlines, our attention turned away from other just as equally urgent issues that are silently taking their toll on the world. Climate change.
The issue of climate change has still not gone away, no matter how hard we try to ignore it. In fact, we are witnessing just as catastrophic repercussions of climate change than we have ever seen before, and Covid-19 is posing a serious threat in deferring global efforts in combating the increasingly alarming rates of climate change.
New Albany Roundup: Eagles water polo program seeks growth, varsity status
ThisWeek group
In an ordinary year, water polo might be a training ground for high school swimmers heading into the winter.
But whether water polo was in the fall, as it usually has been, or in the spring, as it is this year because of the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic, New Albany junior A.J. Denny would have been ready.
“We got the hard swimming out and then flowed right into water polo season,” Denny said. “I found it I liked it. It was a lot more entertaining than swimming for me. I actually treat swimming as conditioning for water polo. It’s a team sport, not in swimming where you’re just working individually. Here, you’re competing, laughing with people and having a good time.”

It’s easy to see why director Ryan Murphy was attracted to this Tony-nominated stage musical; it’s basically a double-length episode of his hit TV series, “Glee.”
On steroids. With an A-list cast.
“The Prom” a Netflix original boldly blends serious social commentary with frivolous Broadway razzmatazz, and gets away with it because the Bob Martin/Chad Beuelin script cheekily acknowledges as much.
Chicago got the ball rolling. Then it was followed by the dismal Nine and the disastrous
Into The Woods. Marshall s next project? The live-action
The Little Mermaid.
Now Ryan Murphy, who shares Marshall s initials, as well as his taste for bombast and Meryl Streep, has entered the fray with his big screen version of the Tony-nominated 2018 musical
The Prom (Netflix). Murphy s love of musicals and theatrics can be traced back to his inexplicably popular network TV series
Glee. His Emmy-winning 2014 movie adaptation of Larry Kramer s dramatic play
The Normal Heart proved he had the talent for transferring stage to screen.
