Environment - April 2007

My point of view is that Global Warming does exist and is a problem. If anyone has a different opinion, okay that's cool, but I don't care to debate it right now.

Basically, what are some things we can do to curve the effects of Global Warming? What things will have a definate impact on the environment. I know recycling and turning off lights and driving hybrid cars will help, but is there anything else?

Should countries back the Kyoto Protocol for instance? Is there legislation that can be suggested? Any scientific breakthroughs that we should pour money into to save the enviornment? Hydro-cars? Any bright ideas?

Does this mean that Yahoo thinks there are No worthwhile best answers about the Environment ?

Or is this once again ,an indication that the Environment is not of any importance to Americans .

As most of the Questions and Answer demonstrate already.

I don't know about others but hey Bio Diesel is in Europe and well you can make your own, why not tell the Government that we want Bio Diesel and if they don't do as we ask let them know how we feel by not buying Diesel and making your own.

Not sure this is the best category for this question, but here goes.

I just read on Yahoo! News that Canada and Austrailia are planning to ban what they term "inefficient" incandescent light bulbs in favor of compact fluorescent bulbs. They claim the incandescent bulbs promote greenhouse emissions and the use of fluorescent bulbs will not only cute down on these emissions, but save users approximately $44 per year.

My question, don't the fluorescent bulbs contain small amounts of mercury and wouldn't this pose an environmental risk in the disposal of the bulbs? In America, one must have an EPA permit to dispose of them... so what happens if other countries are just throwing them away? No mention of disposal problems or solutions was mentioned in the article, but I'm curious how this will effect the environment if it goes through. The article states that incandescent bulbs will not be prohibited when they are the only appropriate alternative but still...

Recent research has proved that the power that these hideous contraptions put out is unbelievably puny and that they are monstrously inefficient. When are the wind energy plant kissers going to admit that they have been conned?

The fact that in Yellowstone there are fossilized Avacado, magnolia and Dogwood trees dating back 50 million years where now it is an alpine zone where only hardy evergreens grow? That means that a semi tropical zone existed at or above 5000 feet above sea level? And if it werent for NATURAL global warming the northern half of the USA would be under close to a mile of ice? All this suggests that we have NOTHING to do with the global warming / cooling cycle. So why aren't we worrying about real issues like deforestation, desertification and the wholesale destruction of sealife? Just curious.

Okay, yes, I know I have posted this question before, but I want to get as many different answers as possible, and I need this info quickly. Here is the question: What do YOU think about global warming? Is it something to stress over every day? Is it going to kill us all? Or, on the opposite end of the spectrum, is it nothing to worry about? Is this whole thing just a media hype? Please don't attack ME for anything I am writing. These are not my views, but I have heard and seen both these sides. Also: If global warming is really here, what are some ways to help, or some solutions to global warming? (Sorry that that sounds odd. I couldn't think of a better way to word it.) Anything that you have to say ABOUT THIS QUESTION is welcome, and sites are gladly accepted. Thank you SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much.

A couple things I've picked up are:
*unplug your cell phone, blackberry, chargers when not in use. They use up energy just being plugged in! I didnt know that.
*reuse plastic bags at the grocery store or buy canvas reusable bags to take with you.
