It s the 21th century, we should evolve, we have been using petrol for our cars for more than 100 years, why car manufacturers do not focus on electric cars. Is it another disgusting lobby pb or technical reasons?

Some of these are slightly farfetched, but not impossible, so don't laugh at me please.

1. Collect fresh-water ice off of Antarctica, and Greenland, and sell it as bottled water

2. Create fields of solar panels in the world's sunniest, hottest locations such as the American Southwest, African Sahara, Middle east

3. Build extremely tall Wind Turbines, tall enough to reach the earth's jet stream, which is always windy

4. Build very sturdy Wind Turbines on Mountain tops, Sea cliffs, and other low-lying area which are very windy.

5. Find healthy places to store nuclear waste, and start using Nuclear Energy (which doesn't have global warming-causing agents)

6. Invent filters which will not release CO2 through a car's exhaust pipe

Meteorologists can accuratly predict the weather for next weekend, why should I believe that they can predict the climate in 50 years? If climate is the overall weather trend, shouldn't we make sure we can measure and predict weather before we go off saying that we know how the climate is going to change?

When asbestos is disturbed the fibers are spread throughout the room; that is when it becomes dangerous. So why don't people just cover it? It saves a lot of money and your'e not putting yourself at risk for asbestos inhalation.

A recent Salon article outlines the proposal to change the way the Act is enforced.

What effects do you think these changes will have if they are enforced? Will we lose species and habitat as a result?

Can a house located in the sunny South be run on complete solar power? If so, could someone tell me how to go about doing it? I know the basics....solar panels (can be bought used, they DO last for 25 years or more), marine batteries or similar rechargable large engine batteries, an inverter, a DC breaker box.....but how do you go about setting all this up to run a house?

we are a printing company and as such use several types of chemicals in the manufacturing process, ie. isopropanol, white spirit and chemicals containing benzene. I would like to ensure that the air on the shopfloor is of a good enough quality and that our ventilation systems are working efficiently

Also while parked, charging it's solar batterys?
Perhaps an additonal intial source for starting could be used

What do you think causes the seashell effect? I think it is partially due to the shell thickness. could it be as the shell wall is thin, sounds are easily absorbed, transmitted and due to the interior smooth surface sounds are reflected within... what do you think? Do you think if thickness of the shell wall plays a part of the effect?

It is told that if we were to be trapped in the ocean with out water, we can not drink sea water because it will dehydrate us. If that's the case, is it possible to just keep on drinking sea water every time we gets thirsty? After all, even with lots of salt in it, it is still water, right?
