Global Warming Update
So far I have been researching other memes and videos around this topic. I also searched to see if there were ones that involved cats, which there are but not many. I have made one “draft” of a cat related global warming meme that I may want to use and or build off of. I plan on posting these to FB, twitter and tumblr and see if they get any traction.

I’m not sure what this typeface is http://pics.blameitonthevoices.com/022011/scumbag_steve.jpg but I think that people are more likely to recognize your meme as a meme if you use it.

Excellent point, Emily, let’s borrow as many recognizable stylistic elements as possible!

Mollie I love your image, especially the RIGHT MEOW! caption, that’s probably a meme in and of itself. Did you borrow it from someone? I think you can improve the image by making it more dynamic and piercing as most memes seem to have a certain shocking or surprising element built into them your image is lacking here. If you search “funny cat” on Google Images you will find dozens of pics of cats in action you can use to insert this dynamic, possibly obnoxious, element in your meme. PS. Search also for “floating cat” you will find a few interesting pictures that can be more easily associated with rising sea levels and global warming.
