help me a little please...about global warming......?

Question

Concentrating on an environmental problem of your own choice,[global warming] explain how that problem maybe solved by means of law and regulation and the policy upon which that law and regulation is based and how a balance maybe struck between the aims of economic growth and human development and the protection of environment in which we live.[uk]

Answer 1

In my opinion and many scientists, it is too late. We ignored, or should I say the world leaders ignored the warnings from scientists years ago. The only answer will never happen and that is to pull the plug, now< on all industry, autos and the killing of our rain forests,,,NOW!! Not gonna happen, to think that our forefathers lived happily without all this industry and needless destruction of our world.We would have to relive the 1600's and keep life simple. Every hear the saying "get back to the basics", great topic my friend, sad topic, our end!

Answer 2

Look, The world is getting a little on the bad side. Truly there is a lot going on, Natural and human intervention has cause the earth to have problems. A major contributor is over population. All these people on his planet leads to more junk. Yea, I said junk… Look at the affordability to everyday merchandise. What country makes cheap merchandise? So a lot more people can buy the stuff, which in turn has to be manufactured, so increasing the amount of industrial turnout.

So, do we tell the middle class they can’t drive? Do we tell the wealthy to stop flying? Do we tell the poor to stop breathing? Do we tell the countries that are manufacturing mass product to cut back?

Or, should you just stop buying so much at the store.. Really, do you need that MP3 player? Do you need a new car every few years? Shouldn’t you BUY a car and use it for 10 years? Do you REALLY need a MINI VAN? Shouldn’t you buy a piece of furniture that is made of real wood and will last a lifetime instead of a fake desk that you will have to buy at least 4 of in your lifetime? Heck, buy a metal one.

It all comes down to your pocketbook. Tell people to get wise and stop spending. No amount of government can overpower the power of the people. Start by buying less imports.

Answer 3

To the guy above. There is a natural "carbon cycle" that recycles CO2. But it's a delicate balance and we're messing it up.

Look at this graph.

http://scrippsco2.ucsd.edu/graphics_gall...

The little squiggles are nature doing its' thing. CO2 falls a bit during summer when plants are active, and rises during the winter. The huge increase is us, burning fossil fuels. Nature buried them over a very long time. We dig them up and burn them, real fast. Unfortunately, we're kicking natures' butt on this one.

Answer 4

It is not man made, and the slight climate change that is factual is happening due to the natural earths progression and factors beyond our control. I think we need to take care of the environment but not at the expense of destroying our economy. There are a lot of scientests who are convinced that the climate change is not man made, but you won't hear them in mainstream media because it does not further their agenda of destroying America. The scientests who boldly say that it is mans fault are the ones getting rich off of global warming. Follow the money. Hitler said that if you tell a big enough lie people will believe it. Well there is just enough truth sprinkled in the big lie that the Lemmings of America are believing it. It's all about grant money and destroying America. The Keoto (sp) Treaty is all about redistribution of wealth, you can SELL your Pollution credits to nations who want to pollute more. ANd China who burns more coal than 2 Billion SUV's are oddly enough exempt from the treaty. As the monkey said in Lion King, "look beyond what you see". WAKE UP AMERICA

Answer 5

Mady u need to study photosynthesis ,and plants. The stupidity of all this hype over CO2 is stupid. Mother nature started recycling our air several million years ago ,so it is not a problem and will not be a problem.

Answer 6

See Al Gore's film.

Answer 7

The way your question is worded gave me a headache, I don't understand what you're asking. Let me be clear about global warming. It is simply a slogan, mostly political and a money maker for people like Al Gore. It's a theory, (guess), as to how ice melts in warm weather and forms in cold weather. Nothing but a myth and unproven rhetoric.

Answer 8

From Neal Boortz-Radio USA talk show host

WHY AM I SKEPTICAL ABOUT MAN-MADE GLOBAL WARMING? (from 02/02/2007)

A 21-page report from something called the "Intergovernmental Panel On Climate Change" has been released today...in Paris, no less...and as expected, it's predictions are dire. According to the report: "Warming of the climate system is unequivocal, as is now evident from observations of increases in global average air and ocean temperatures, widespread melting of snow and ice, and rising global mean sea level." Yeah right...we've heard all this before.

But the biggest bombshell here is this one: no matter what we do, global warming will not be reversed. It will go on for centuries, according to this report. The sea levels will continue to rise as polar ice caps melt. So I guess if Al Gore wins his Nobel Peace Prize, we'll still experience global warming. So much for riding to work everyday in your hybrid car...it's not doing a thing. The situation is futile, according to this report.

But really, it makes sense that the global warming crowd would come to this conclusion. After all, global warming is a religion. The anti-capitalist enviro-nazis don't ever want the problem to be solved. After all, if global warming were to be solved tomorrow, what would they blame the United States for? They'd have to find some other reason.

Sorry .. I'm still a skeptic. In no particular order here are just a few of the reasons why I'm not buying this man-made global warming scare:

The United Nations is anti-American and anti-Capitalist. In short .. I don't trust them. Not a bit. The UN would eagerly engage in any enterprise that would weaken capitalist economies around the world.


Because after the fall of the Soviet Union and worldwide Communism many in the anti-capitalist movement moved to the environmental movement to continue pursuing their anti-free enterprise goals. Many of the loudest proponents of man-made global warming today are confirmed anti-capitalists.


Because the sun is warmer .. and all of these scientists don't seem to be willing to credit a warmer sun with any of the blame for global warming.


The polar ice caps on Mars are melting. How did our CO2 emissions get all the way to Mars?


It was warmer in the 1930s across the globe than it is right now.


It wasn't all that long ago that these very same scientists were warning us about "global cooling" and another approaching ice age?


How much has the earth warmed up in the last 100 years? One degree. Now that's frightening.

Because that famous "hockey stick" graph that purports to show a sudden warming of the earth in the last few decades is a fraud. It ignored previous warming periods ... left them off the graph altogether.


The infamous Kyoto accords exempt some of the world's biggest CO2 polluters, including China and India.


The Kyoto accords can easily be seen as nothing less than an attempt to hamstring the world's dominant capitalist economies.


Because many of these scientists who are sounding the global warming scare depend on grant money for their livelihood, and they know the grant money dries up when they stop preaching the global warming sermon.


Because global warming "activists" and scientists seek to punish those who have different viewpoints. If you are sure of your science you have no need to shout down or seek to punish those who disagree.


What happened to the Medieval Warm Period? In 1996 the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change issued a chart showing climatic change over a period of 1000 years. This graph showed a Medieval warming period in which global temperatures were higher than they are today. In 2001 the IPCC issued another 1000 year graph in which the Medieval warming period was missing. Why?


Why has one scientist promoting the cause of man-made global warming been quoted as saying "we have to get rid of the medieval warming period?"


Why is the ice cap on the Antarctic getting thicker if the earth is getting warmer?


In the United State, the one country with the most accurate temperature measuring and reporting records, temperatures have risen by 0.3 degrees centigrade over the past 100 years. The UN estimate is twice that.


There are about 160,000 glaciers around the world. Most have never been visited or measured by man. The great majority of these glaciers are growing, not melting.


Side-looking radar interferometry shows that the ise mass in the West Antarctic is growing at a rate of over 26 gigatons a year. This reverses a melting trend that had persisted for the previous 6,000 years.


Rising sea levels? The sea levels have been rising since the last ice age ended. That was 12,000 years ago. Estimates are that in that time the sea level has risen by over 300 feet. The rise in our sea levels has been going on long before man started creating anything but natural CO2 emissions.


Like Antarctica, the interior of Greenland is gaining ice mass.


Over the past 3,000 years there have been five different extended periods when the earth was measurably warmer than it is today.


During the last 20 years -- a period of the highest carbon dioxide levels -- global temperatures have actually decreased. That's right ... decreased.


Why did a reporter from National Public Radio refuse to interview David Deming, an associate professor at the University of Oklahoma studying global warming, after his testimony to the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee unless Deming would state that global warming was being caused by man?


Why are global warming proponents insisting that the matter is settled and that no further scientific research is needed? Why are they afraid of additional information?


On July 24, 1974 Time Magazine published an article entitled "Another Ice Age?" Here's the first paragraph:
"As they review the bizarre and unpredictable weather pattern of the past several years, a growing number of scientists are beginning to suspect that many seemingly contradictory meteorological fluctuations are actually part of a global climatic upheaval. However widely the weather varies from place to place and time to time, when meteorologists take an average of temperatures around the globe they find that the atmosphere has been growing gradually cooler for the past three decades. The trend shows no indication of reversing. Climatological Cassandras are becoming increasingly apprehensive, for the weather aberrations they are studying may be the harbinger of another ice age."

Hey ... I could go on. There's much more where that came from. But I need to get ready to go on the air. Just know that many of the strongest proponents of this "man-made" global warming stuff are dedicated opponents to capitalism and don't feel all that warm and fuzzy about the United States.

Answer 9

if we're all dead there is no economy, ignoring global warming is not economic.
