INDIANAPOLIS, Indiana — From foster mom, to adoptive mom, to kidney donor. This family took in a little boy and gave him a lifesaving gift.Nicole Alles and her husband have been fostering children for more than a decade. A few years ago, the couple decided to take a break and decide if this is what they wanted to continue doing.That’s when they received a call about a baby boy that no one was willing to take in.“WE got a call for him in December and they couldn’t find anyone to take him in because of all of his medical complications,” said Nicole.Sebastian was born in October of 2014 with a long list of health concerns including end stage renal, collapsed lungs and stage 4 chronic kidney disease."I mean the biggest issue was that his kidneys weren't working and we knew we were going to need to start him on dialysis before he even left the hospital,” said Dr. Myda Khalid, children’s kidney doctor at Riley Hospital.Sebastian would eventually need a new kidney.Nicole, a home healthcare nurse, knew she could help Sebastian. The couple took him in and she did his dialysis at home."We took him in under the premise that he would probably go back home soon, but that did not happen,” said Nicole.After four months, Sebastian’s biological parents discontinued their parental rights.In 2016, the Alles family legally adopted him.His two foot tall box of medical records was delivered to their home shortly after.That’s when Nicole learned she and her newly adopted son shared a blood type.After waiting for Sebastian to be strong enough for a transplant, Nicole went through extensive testing and learned she was a match.“When they found out I was a tissue match for him that was when we were just so excited because that just meant so much to us that I was able to give him the kidney,” said Nicole.Today Sebastian is one year post operation. He’s healthier than ever.His kidney transplant, one of many successful surgeries he’s had to improve his quality of life.“To look at him, you really wouldn’t know he’s been through as much as he’s been through,” said Nicole.Nicole believes Sebastian was meant to come into her life so she could be his mother and his donor.“Being able to save his life... it makes me very emotional, very fortunate... very blessed... very happy because I know that I was a part of that,” said Alles. 2346

In a sea of young people fighting for their future, there's a 13-year-old girl named Haven Coleman.In many ways, she's just like any other teenager, but she's also the co-founder of a national organization called U.S. Youth Climate Strike. She spends every Friday striking outside the Colorado State Capitol.“So the story... involves sloths," Haven says.Inspired several years ago to save the sloths she deeply loves, Haven decided to become a climate activist."I was trying to do everything and anything, and I'm still doing that to stop climate change because this is something that's so like... big, so terrifying, and that's gonna be following me and my generation," she explains. "And it has been for our whole lives."Growing up during a time when climate change is a common topic, Haven wasn't shocked when she found out carbon dioxide has now reached a level in the atmosphere that hasn't been seen for three million years. On May 11, sensors at the Mauna Loa Observatory in Hawaii measured concentrations of the greenhouse gas to be at 415 parts per million. That means for every 1 million molecules of gas in the atmosphere, 415 were carbon dioxide. Compare that to 315 ppm 60 years ago, and 280 at the start of the industrial revolution. Without human interference, carbon in fossil fuels would leak slowly into the atmosphere through volcanic activity over millions of years. That's how the Earth has had these levels before. But a process that is normally very slow has been accelerated by the burning of coal, oil, and natural gas."Those greenhouse gases, that carbon pollution that we're putting into the atmosphere, much of that is going to stay there for a very long period of time and affect our climate for decades to come," Tony Dutzik said.Tony Dutzik with Environment America says what's most concerning about this data, is that human beings have never lived in a climate as hot as the one that existed three million years ago. Sea levels were approximately 50 feet higher than where they are today.According to Scripps Institution of Oceanography, vegetation records from that era called Pliocene show forests growing in the Canadian arctic, and savannas covering what is now known as the north African desert. The impacts of a changing climate are already evident in the United States."We're beginning to see supercharged storms -- storms that are gaining energy from our warmer oceans -- that are dumping immense amounts of rainfall. Storms like Hurricane Harvey, and Hurricane Florence in just the last few years," Dutzik says. "Sea level is rising at about a tenth of an inch per year, and that rate of rise is accelerating, and so cities like Boston and Miami increasingly have to deal with coastal flooding. And in places in the west, we're seeing larger more intense wildfires that burn hotter and are harder to control."As catastrophic as these events may seem, Dutzik says change is possible if everyone plays a part."Every day we have the opportunity when we're making energy efficiency upgrades to our homes, when we're purchasing our next car, when we're choosing where to live -- whether we live some place that's close to the places that we need to be or far away," Dutzik says.However, Dutzik notes a majority of change necessary to alter the course the earth's current projections will take a lot of political power. Power that young people like Haven are strongly pushing for."I hope that we fix this," Haven says. "We have 11 years...because 11 years is the only time we've got to fix the worst effects of climate change."Many U.S. students are pushing for 100 percent renewable energy by 2030 and want to stop any new construction on fossil fuel infrastructure, including pipelines, coal plants, and fracking facilities. *******************If you'd like to contact the journalist of this story, email elizabeth.ruiz@scripps.com 3880
