Recycle, Reuse items that can be reused.
Use less electricity, conserve water. Keep the heat at 68 F/20 C in the house. Buy products with little packaging. Drive only when necessary, keep the car tuned up,
The world will end as we know it. It has to in order for us to survive we as people have to demand better cleaner renewable energy sources. We have to be no longer dependant on fossil fuels. Once our world governments figure that out there will be little need for war. It is unfortunate that it has to take this catastrophe for people to understand that there are no borders it is one planet and it is getting angry and rebelling at the way it's being treated. We must all work together and change our thinking. The pollution that the plants make in China move across the Pacific into North America. The pollution we make here goes across the Atlantic to Europe. We are killing each other and we have no idea.

There are a number of things you can do. some are fairly straightforward--save energy (and money) by turning off lights and appliances when not using them.
A lot of the things you can do require an investment (soe small, others fairly large). The good news is that they alll will not only help the environment, they will pay for themselves and save money in the long run. Here's a (partial list):
>better insulation for your home
>switch to the "energy-saving" light bulbs
>when it comes time to get a new car, buy one that's fuel-efficient, a hybrid, or (if they are on the market by then) electric.
>Install solar energy systems (this is expensive, though it saves money in the long run. But it can be financed and/or done a little at a time)
>ICheck into car-pooling and/or using public transportation.
>Make your supporfor reforming energy policies known by writing/e-mailing your political representatives.

The best way to fix the problem is good engineering processes. At this time there are a lot of poluting systems that need to be fixed and can be fixed with the application of good engineering. If you have no aptitude for engineering then maybe politics
