What kind of advice is this? Why don't we just turn it completely off and live like the Eskimos then? I wonder how many of the company excecutives keep their thermostat at 66. Where do you keep your thermostat? My suggestion to the gas company is to stop wasting my money by airing that stupid commercial, and to lower their profit margins. I don't need them to waste my money by stating the obvious, that if you lower your thermostat you will use less gas. Wow, what a stroke of genious.

Whenever global warming is mentioned the motor car is invariable singled out as being the worst polluter and yet what about dogs?

For most of the time a car is not being driven but stands stationary whereas a dog breaths out cordon 24/7. Moreover, the food the dog eats has to be processed, canned, labels printed, transported - all of which entails (no pun intended) the use of valuable fossil fuel not to mention the pollution these activities create. Even when the can itself is empty it has to collected, transported -again- and, even if it is recycled, still uses up fossil fuel and creates pollution.

If folk really want to be green they should forget the car and get rid of the dog.

I'm working on a comic book that takes place on Earth in the future. The idea is that we as a human race continued down our slippery slope until the effects of global warming caused a third ice age of sorts.

Unfortunately I only dabble in the world of science, and would like to know if anyone can offer the technical points of how global warming COULD cause an ice age, and about how long it would take to reach this drastic state should we continue burning fossil fuels and causing way too much pollution.

Thanks in advance for any help that may come my way!

Now my question is will cutting back on pollution now have enoth of an effect on our future world or will more drastic messures like sending a satalite to block out some of the suns rays be necessary? I am all for cutting back on waste of energy and population growth ect but I just dont think it will be enoth to stop this crisis. I think we will probably have to sacrifice alot to build Co2 scrubbing machiens, Plant more plants, and find other ways to rebuild our glacial ice caps ect... It was said the war on terrorism would take along time but I think the war on pollution will probably take alonger time. There are so many varibles we do not know our very own magnetic field generators could be helping to cause global warming in ways we do not yet understand. This may mean a dramatic cut back in power consumption on a scale that would put us back into horse and buggy days but honestly the only other option is to do nothing imo.

Think before you act.
Word is bond.

But whoami?

I have a pile of dead AA batteries (now switched to rechargeable) and I need to get rid of them. I heard it's really bad if you just throw them in the bin - all the acid leaks out into the soil - big pollution problem. What can I do with them that causes less damage?

Service Station big days were in the 1940's. A clay pit was in the back and it was filled with old car parts and buried. In the 70's the owner checked with a local plumber to bid on turning one of the gas tanks into a septic tank. I was interested in buying the building but now I'm concerned on who is responsible if it's descovered those tanks are conaminating the ground water.

It sounds like we really have no hope left to live peacefully on planet Earth according to some scientist.Is there any good solutions to make sure human species stick to our lovely planet and never had to make any desperate decisions by having a colony on Mars?Is it true that some scientist really do lost hope on saving our precious planet?Are they the same groups of scientist that had a lot to argue with WWF and Greenpeace activist(optimist vs pesimist)?

after that that effected life on this planet. We know of civilations going back to 6 thousand years, nomads going back 11 thousand years, and modern man going back 100 thousand years. Do you think there were advanced civilations long before 6 or 11 thousand years ago? Use your imagination and imagine what they were like and imagine where they would of lived if not the entire world. Since there is no record of them imagine what could have erased any records. Looking forward to your responses.

I know it would be slower, but would the emissions be lower? I know there was talk a few years ago about a company that was using them for freight shipments.

http://60minutes.yahoo.com/

I was watching the 60 Minutes special on Yahoo about global warming. I do beleive that humans have some part in it, but there is still one question lingering in the back of my mind. In the interview, the scientist said that these current conditions havn't met the Earth in hundreds of years, or even thousands of years. So what happened during those time period where these tempuratures and carbon levels were the same before? It couldn't have been your average Joe heating his house or driving his Hummer cross country. This leads me to beleive that what we are experiance may be a result of the Earth's natural cycle. Am I wrong?
