Conservation

I have a research paper on an endangered species. I decided on the red wolf because i LOOOOVE wolves, but i digress. My paper is supposed to be why we should save this species. I can't very well say that i want to save it because it is just-so-darn-cute! Can anyone out there think of any reasons? Also, any websites that might have recent news on the Red wolf would be appreciated. (I keep finding websites with conflicting information)

I'm always puzzled by this. We know gasoline is precious and limited, whereas water is semi-precious and reuseable. Yet it matters to save water or else in the future we may have shortages due to population growth, or global warming.

So if water is sort-of-precious and must be saved, why are home and residential distribution systems so that we drink the same water as we use to water the garden or to take a bath (grey water)? Shouldn't houses have TWO grades of water ie two parallel plumbing systems?
Adding the 'grey pipe' on older houses seems kind of late to do cost-effectively now, but can we still do this on newer houses? Would it be worth? Imagine how cheaper it is for a plant to produce grey water, very little filtering needed.
Am I the first one to think about this?...

Shouldn't we save wildlife just because they have a right to live too?

Why do some people have to have selfish reasons even in conservation?

........a broken hair straightener??? The cord split, leaving the wire exposed.

If I just throw it in the everyday garbage bin, will that be hazardous to the environment? What if I wrap it in plastic, cloth, etc..? Is there a safe way to dispose of this, without making a trip to some obscure recycling plant?? (I'm just a kid.)

can't think of it...I'm sure there's a word...I think it connects directly with the using up of natural resources, such as coal.

For every two barrels of coal used, ONE barrel is produced.

I'll start. Mine is Self because it embodies everything that I am and is the representation of my belief in individuality. Self means as defined by webster's dictionary as the entire person of an individual, the realization or embodiment of an abstraction. the union of elements (as body, emotions, thoughts, and sensations) that constitute the individuality and identity of a person. The essential qualities and distingushing characteristics thatt sets a person, thing or being apart from all others. In other words, the individual. What about yours??

Postman could also check water, gas, and electric meters while on their routes. I would think these modifications would save a lot of fuel. For that matter, mail delivery could be slowed by two days and reduce the amount of mail that is transported by air. It could be sent by rail instead and rail uses much less fuel per pound.

Alaska citizens get annual payments for the sale of State owned oil

California and others are trying to get Arizona to share more of its water. Should Arizona citizens be compensated and paid for sharing the water that flows through the State?

I think they should

We are in a drought, Carl Hayden guaranteed Arizona its water long ago, if we are going to share it - we should be compensated for it!

If we were to eliminate all energy waste could we greatly lessen our impact on nature, and by these conservation methods also provide ourselves with all the energy we currently need?

Imagine something as simple as having street lights that use a fraction of the energy that conventional types use.
LED lighting might soon provide this reality. Or, imagine turning off all the lights when not really needed! Look at all the public municipal buildings that leave their lights on all night long with nary a person in sight. I would bet that millions of watts are being 'burned' away needlessly, in a thousand cities---as we speak! Look at all the 'stand-by' electrical appliances that use power in their hiberbating state. Worse yet, look at all the computers that are left on for no good reason. We have the technology folks: it's our fingers flipping a switch to the OFF position. I ask; could our current (no pun intended) energy needs be met by simple conservation methods ?
