I recently got a quote to get solar panels for my house and it was over $30,000! I want to do my part to reduce global warming and support renewable energy, but how can the average person do it when it costs so much? Even with federal and state rebates, its way too expensive? Did anyone see 'Who Killed the Electric Car?'

-2 Degrees Celius in Birmingham England
+5 Degrees Celcius in Oshawa Canada

I'm not complaining - just curious because every year it is minus 10 degrees colder than western european weather. I like have NO SNOW OR ICE this time of year - its amazing everything is green. I can still see the grass and the trees and nature - its amazing - its not lousy WHITE bland snow - dead -- . So I want to know some explanations from you science heads on this one. Is it global warming or what?

I used to remember our old water purifier from the early '80's. When I opened it, I discovered that our water filter contained black coals? So if I wanted to shovel snow in front of the driveway and place the shovelled snow in a barrel for water conservation purposes, can the snow be filtered (went it melts) if I dumped black coals in a barrel and poured the snow over it or would it be wiser to use the cholorox purifying method instead?

Does a facility exist anywhere for testing tidal stream power turbines? If so where? I know they are often tested using cavitation chambers and towing tanks but where do companies test larger scale prototypes?

Over population and habitat destruction is responsible for the greatest mass extinction of plant and animal life in 67 million years. The emminent biologist, Edward O. Wilson, predicts the extinction of 50 to 75% of all species alive today by the end of this century. The variability is due to the severity of global warming, and man's desire and ability to confront this disaster in the making.

Why are so many people sold on the fact that humans control the climate and global tempertures when in fact we can't even predict the weather 3 days from now? Does anyone realize that the earth's history has gone through many drastic climate changes without humans even being present?

I hear about Bio diesel and if I am not very wrong that fuel still pollutes the air just as normal diesel.
