Global warming is the gradual increase in global temperatures that has happened over millenia - and will continue to do so, though sometimes cooling, sometimes warming.
Global warming is caused by the sun and, indirectly, by sun spot activity. As a result of global warming, the oceans release more co2 - CO2 is an indicator - or "effect" it is not a cause. This is why global warming or cooling always PRECEEDS the co2 level changes. It does NOT follow it.
Even if co2 was a cause, the oceans generate > 99% of the co2 in the atmosphere. So in reality, humans can effectively do nothing with Co2.
The myth runs on because governments around the world pour BILLIONS into research, and hundreds of thousands of jobs are at stake - ditto with many of the green charities and causes. The truth is the money is being wasted in researching solutions to problems which we caused by sunspot activity - not by the <1% of co2 that humans generate.
Prevent global warming? Find a way to control sunspot activity.
For a very interesting documentary on this - with some pretty powerful facts, watch this http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-4520665474899458831&q=great+global+warming+swindle
Of course if you wish to bang on about co2 like the rest of the sheep, feel free to just give me a thumbs down and go turn a few bulbs off :)

If you deserve a vacation, you need to earn it.
Here is a New York Times article from a couple of days ago. Read it.
http://www.nytimes.com/2007/03/12/science/earth/12climate.html?em&ex=1173931200&en=56e7105fbb8d29d9&ei=5087%0A
If you deserve to pass a science class, you should be able to read this article and connect it to science.
Also, using someone else's words as your own is cheap and lame. Don't take advice from anyone who tells you that you should cheat. I would also advise you not to pick an article from some random website (like drudgereport.com) and use that. Pick a real article from a real newspaper (New York Times, Washington Post, LA Times, Wall Street Journal, etc) or newsmagazine (Time, Newsweek, US News and World Reports, etc)
Use your textbook and see what topics you can find in the textbook that relate to the topics mentioned in the article. Then, just skim through the part of your textbook that is connected to the article. There are a lot of different topics within science that connect with global warming.
Good luck and enjoy your vacation! I know I'm looking forward to spring break as well!

Have a read of this answer I gave to a similar question, I won't post it here because it's VERY long. It tells you all the basics about global warming including the causes and effects. http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AjD1smzKEtamw90mewybSmbsy6IX?qid=20070312182624AAmYqxF
It's online here http://profend.com/answers/global_warming.html (it's easier to read than on the Answers page).
It's also in the process of being converted to a proper website which is here http://profend.com/global-warming/ (under construction at the moment).

go to www.drudgereport.com
search for "global warming"
snake one of those articles about how much of a farce this whole global warming problem is as a result of SUV's, and humans, and read how this is a normal trend that has occurred over the past million years on the plant every 4000 years.

Probably best if you just look up Global Warming on Google and do it yourself. Seriously, if you want a vacation, earn it.
