Each child was given an I.D. bracelet and ushered onto a waiting bus.

The world is getting overcrowded, and we, as the people who live on this planet, needed to figure out a way to help the population go down so thay we can save the Earth. Global warming has been accuring for a long time without any signs of stopping just slowing down some. Resources from the Earth such as fossil fuels, natural gas, and coal are running out, and we have yet to come up with enough renewable resources that can produce enough power as the non-renewable resources had. The governments now have come up with a few ways to help the population go down that have been put into place.
Rule One established to save our planet was to euthanize everyone over the age of sixty-five and anyone who committed murder of any type. The reason being was to not waste any money with people put on death row and that the elderly are hospitalized often and are more perceptable to illnesses. This got rid of approximately 46.2 million elderly people and around 3,000 inmates within weeks after being put into place.
Rule Two established was to euthanize anyone suffering from cancer with a survival rate of lower than fifty percent. This rule has shrunk the population by 595,690 people (in the US).
Rule Three established was thay families could only habe two biological children. If they wished to have more children, they are to adopt from any adoption agency around the world. So far, this has shrunk the population from 7.4 billion to 7.3 billion, but this doesn't include the amount of people who statistically die each day. If we were to add the number of daily deaths after three weeks, the population would be about 7.2 billion.
The newest rule into place involves children between the ages of 5-13. They are placed through a series of tests for different parts of the brain and DNA amd genetics amd sill then be divided into two groups. Each child is givdn and I.D. bracelet with serial numbers on them but in two colors: black and green. Kids with black bracelets go onto one bus while kids with green bracelets go onto another.
Children with green bracelets are transferred to elite schools to have an equal education modeled to what they want as a job. Once completing junior high they go back home and attend public and private schools. In short, they live.
Children with black bracelets are transferred to testing facilities for more testing. Half of those children get green bracelets and are put on the first bus once it comes back to get them. The other children are unfortunately euthanized leaving the current population at 5.9 billion.
Hopefully the Earth will be fixed, and we can remkve the Rules before things go bad.
