MUMBAI: Nick News with Linda Ellerbee will go around the globe, stopping in Holland, Alaska, California, Kenya, Australia and the Philippines to give kids a chance to tell adults what they think about climate change.

The entire trip will be packaged into a show called A Global Warning From The Kids of the World which will premiere on 9 December at 9 pm (ET/PT) on Nickelodeon.

The series will be aired on the eve of U.S VP Al Gore receiving 2007 Nobel Peace Prize on 10 December in Oslo, Norway, for his work to create greater worldwide understanding of climate change.

"There are times when kids must listen to adults, and there are times when it is important for adults to hear kids' voices," said Ellerbee. "This is one of those times. We traveled around the world to meet kids whose lives are already affected by climate change, and who really want us to listen to what they have to say."

Nick News will meet David, Khalil, Luke, Sarah and Joshua who live in San Bernardino, California, in the fire zone. Drought and rising temperatures throughout the west have contributed to wildfires that are more frequent and fiercer. These kids work as volunteers at the Fire Lookout Stations in San Bernardino National Park.

Nick News will also speak to Deszie, Arianne, Loura, Jerome, Lyle and Neil from the Philippines, which have been hit hard by floods, droughts, typhoons cyclones and landslides that come with extreme weather, and who believe it is the poor of this world who will suffer from climate change more than other people.
