Environment - October 2006

Hello. I am trying to get Dunkin' Donuts to switch from using styrofoam cups, to recycled paper cups because it is WAY better for the environment. I need as much people as possible to support me on this. you see, styrofoam is bad for the environment because it takes so long to decompose, and also the factories that make it contribute greatly to the amount of greenhouse gasses in our atmosphere. Please help me out and go to:

How hard is it to do reforestation? Trees and plants take the carbon out of the air and put it back in the ground. The reason we are in such a fix is the destruction of the forests through deliberate burning, harvest and forest fires. If we started replanting now at a ratio of 4 to 1 and kept it going, there's a chance that the worst of it won't happen. BUT NO ONE IS TALKING ABOUT PLANTING TREES. Why?

Our token effort is not going to make the slightest difference if the big boys dont get their houses in order. Apart from filling the governments coffers that is!

I havn't travelled on an aeroplane for over 18 years, don't miss it because I used to work on one many moons ago. Never thought 20 years ago about the pollution from aeroplanes... would be interested to know as there are in my mind too many!

solar collecters can be used to heat up our water for free, although this seems like a good idea saving you money and helping reduce pollution it also puts your home and you in danger. since it is connected to the pipes which are connected to earth its basically a path for lightning to travel down, lightning can travel through your piping and wiring and shock you since it spreads out at the point of impact every one touching or whom is near the piping system would be at danger, as well as your house hold applicances, my question is if this did happen would this be covered in most life and property insurance policies and do you think the chance of this happening is so small it doesnt bother you?

Contrast the isostatic adjustment that might result from the melting of glacial ice with isostatic adjustment that a large river emptying into the ocean might cause.

Instead of taxing the hell out of us (as was in the news today), with no obvious intentions of improvining and extending the transport system (in the uk) to fight global warming (a noble cause) , why don't they put their heads together and develope a car we can all afford? it's about time!

I live in a brand-new townhouse development. The land I live on now was a former Massey-Ferguson tractor factory. The land was contaminated but has now been cleaned. Is this red-residue indicative of a problem with our water supply?
