Lots of discussions about automobiles, boats, trucks etc. etc. I have read absolutely nothing about the aviation industry doing something to curtail the ommission from their jet engines. they burn thousands of jet fuel at thousands of feet and by the time it comes down to earth it has spread over large areas.
Does someone have an answer. Or are we dealing with a sacred cow that no one wants to touch.

My daughter needs to make a booklet for school (third grade level) about different types of forest. We've done Tropical Rainforest, Deciduous Forest and Coniferous Forest so far. The next on her list is "Coastal Forest." She needs to know what kinds of trees grow there, what animal life can be found there, where coastal forests can be found and she needs a photo to insert in her word doc.
I'm frustrated because "coastal forest" can mean so many things! There's coastal forest in Alaska and also in England and in Texas and in Hawaii!! And they're all totally different! The internet hits we're finding are not helping.
Can anyone make an educated guess as to what her teacher wants here?

I have heard rumors that the manufacture of the nickle batteries is an environmental nightmare in China creating exess waste and the need to then transport these batteries. Then their life span is only about 100K, once that battery is done it is the worst kind of waste, toxic, non-biodegradeable and non recyclable. On your Green Car ratings the Prius gets an 86 while the Mercedes M-Class gets an 8. Did you consider that the Mercedes will run up to or past 300K and is almost 100% recyclable with the exception of the small battery?

- I want to dispose of these old video tapes properly.....
and i am concerned that I am not sure if the best way to dispose of all of these old video tapes, is to throw them in the recycle bin ?
What happens to all of these old video tapes, if you do this ?

Will that keep these old video tapes, out of the landfill ?

I have enough old video tapes to make some kind of a large outrageous “art” statement.

I have this dream to find an artist that would help me start an art project.

I would like to find a place to display a large “art thing” made of Old video tapes - This could be done easily by taking all the old videotapes I have and gluing them or melting them together and spelling out, “Love the Earth - Recycle” and then I would just need a place where this art/ recycle project, could be displayed some where.

to help the environment in general as it was for civilians to grow there own food at home, recycle, ration and switch there entire companies over to making items for the war effort during World War II just without the fanfair and organized efforts at doing so because a degrading and collapsing environment and climate is as big a threat to the american way of life as the axis was and helping keep the climate stable and the environment healthy helps the war effort and the peace effort meaning everyone can feel patriotic doing this because it happens to be actually true no matter what your position on any currently contested issues?

I have a friend who lives in a place that she converted to a liveable space at a movie studio complex; however, the space is right above the transformer used by the studios for power. At night we can sometimes hear some buzzing sounds. How dangerous is this? We've heard things like it causes cancer in the long run, and that it is simply not safe. Does she have to worry about it? She's been there about two years.

Paper bags involve the slaughter of innocent trees, get used once (usually) and are then landfilled or recycled. True they do biodegrade.

Plastic bags on the other hand, usually come from oil, are used once, and are then landfilled or recycled. They don't biodegrade.

So I guess the question is, is the biodegradeability worth the slaughter of innocent trees?

Another question would be the cost? Is it much cheaper to make and use plastic bags?
