I love fireworks as much as the next guy, but I have to wonder -- are they bad for the planet? Are there statistics that show what kind of effect fireworks have on the air?

I have a big screen TV that doesn't work anymore. The circuit Board is pretty much shot, but I wanted to take somewhere where parts (such as copper, gold plated pieces, and metal) can be salvaged for new things. Anyone know where I send it? And hopefully get some money out of it?

My friend and I are debating about which is safer. If a plane crashes into an extreamly tall building, is it better to be on the top or bottom floor? I think top because then you can get out faster. She thinks top because then you would fall on stuff and stuff wouldnt fall on you. Which one is safer?

a month for natural gas even if you don't use any? This might only be a thing that occurs with my utlility company, just realized this today, while looking at my utility bill.
Gas meter reading was the same as last month, but it still costed me $14.
No wonder utilities are a gold mine, now they are trying to make them into a get-rich quick scheme.

I don't think I can get them from any recycling sites like craig list or freecycle - because people don't even think of keeping burnt-out bulbs - they through them away immediatelly, as they are not recyclable. I need quite a lot of them. Any ideas? By the way - I am in UK

What's so great about NATURE. It probably pre-dates Aristotle to worship at the shrine of Nature, but "in a state of nature" we are basically brutal apes without shelter, manners, indoor plumbing, or food production. Mother Nature is a "harsh Mistress." What's so great about nature?

The speed limit for a school zone is 15 mph and can be as high as 45 mph in rural areas. In Florida we have no wake zones where a boat must idle (about 5 mph) because Manatees may be present. A manatee can hear a boat coming (10 to 15 mph) and get out of the way. A child can not hear as well, does not pay attention to traffic, or distracted by other kids. I think the no wake zones are to protect the rich homeowners and their seawalls along the intercoastal waterway. There seems to be no logic or reason for the locations of the no wake zones.

If 15 mph is good enough for our children, then 15 mph should be good enough for the Manatees.

Aren't humans a sort of "planet parasites"?

Completely dependent on the planet we live on, yet taking much much more than giving back.

What can we do to become more like "good bacteria" than "bad parasites"?
