I know i'm ignorant, so please correct that for me. I really don't see what is so hard about putting out fires, like in California now. Why don't they just dig ditch around it and fill it with water, or at least cut down trees on the border so there is a gap. I know the wind carries a bit but....
Also why does California have so many wild fires?
Thank you

Are we making a mistake by fighting diseases? Is it possible that some countries are not actively fighting AIDS because they are using it (or letting it) to decrease the population?

If people stopped having babies from this point on, about how many years would it take to benefit the environment?
If world leaders provided free birth control to everyone, everywhere, would there be a dramatic benefit to the environment?

Nowadays, some people are beginning to worry about the issue of human overpopulation and the environmental effects that such a large amount of humans have on this planet. We are seemingly using more and more resources per person as the years go by. However, I know many families that have a lot of children. From what I understand, some countries have placed a limit of some sorts on how many children a family can have. In order to keep the population from exponentially increasing, having 2 or less children per family would be the way to go. (one child to "replace" the mother, one child to "replace" the father) However, I know many families that have 4, 5, 6 or more children. Hundreds of years ago, this was considered normal, but there were far less people, the average life span was significantly less, and there were no environmental concerns. At this point in time, it is morally, ethically, or environmentally correct to have such large families? What do you think?

Whether it's Rachel Carson or Al Gore or scores of others, why do people seem to want to discredit the bearer of bad news? I don't know if this trend is more pronounced in environmental matters, but that may be the case since the discipline is a relatively new one.

It would seem that offering a solid repudiation of the work would suffice.

Assuming you had enough land on which to grow them, living where you are now, with the financial resources available to you now for the purpose of buying tools, seeds and so forth.

How long do you think it would take you to get up and producing everything that you need?

Do you think it would be time well spent?

What would be the benefits?

Answer as much or as little as you like. Guesses welcome!

care products?

Chemicals found in household products like antibacterial soap and plastic bottles are found in sewage water that is discharged into San Francisco Bay, posing a threat to wildlife and humans, according to new data....The inspectors found three types of chemicals -- phthalates, bisphenol A and triclosan. All are suspected of interfering with hormone systems of humans and wildlife..."We're involved because we know that these compounds are out there, and we cannot treat them in the wastewater stream," said Charles Hardy, EBMUD spokesman.
