Environment - April 2007

We currently use about 800 Kwh per month, and we already switched out all of our lightbulbs to compact florescent lightbulbs. What should we work on next?

For whatever reason, global warming is caused by an excess of CO2 gas. Hemp is a biomass champion for scrubbing the air of excess CO2 gas and, when used as a biofuel, can replace any toxic energy we are using with clean, safe energy.

Massive hemp growing on unused federal land could help reduce the effects of global warming by dealing with the cause. Hemp can replace many polluting activities with biofriendly alternatives like fuel, paper and food. Hemp is wind pollinated, not bee pollinated, so could serve as a back-up food source.

But it's illegal.

The USA Hemp Museum www.hempmuseum.org has more on hemp and global warming.

So, after you've done your own research on the subject, please post your ideas on: What would you do if the solution to global warming was illegal?

Okay. So now they have found a fossilized rain forest in ILLINOIS!
Rain forest are in temperate, sub tropic and tropic latitudes. Not in arid plains that only have about 4 months out of the year that get above 80 or 85 degress.
This rain forest is estimated to be 300 million years old.

i bet quite a few people that drone on about global warming and carbon footprints use one of those gas patio heaters to heat their patio and er, well, the atmosphere.......there must already be enough to be adding significantly to global warming. Shouldn't they be banned?

Many here questioned whether global warming is true or if there are true science behind it. The truth of the debate may be more than scientific. The following article from L.A. Times put some political insight into the question.
