Does anybody else realize that we need to preserve Earth?

Question

Come on people, you all know that we want to help, but what are we doing in order for this to work? i think that we all need to pitch in, and i personaly appreciate every one doing their part to save this ball of dirt and water we call planet earth. it would be really cool if we all would participate in helping save this beautiful place.

Answer 1

A lot of times, environmental issues are neglected since it's "out of sight, out of mind". Many people do not realize that many negative environmental is related to the things they did. Unless something is directly hurting them, people will usually ignore it. So in order to save the planet, the government must enforce laws to make changes. The entire country will not have the incentive to buy a hybrid or conserve resources unless they get direct benefit from it, or laws are being enforced. We should invest in renewable resources but Oil makes big bucks. Many people are inclined to think about themselves only since they are selfish.

umm like ya! lets all like save the earth! ya like what are we like saving it from though? like ummmm stupid sheep like you? ohh like did that kinda like umm slip out of my mouth? oh my gosh! Ok first thing....the planet earth has a very thin layer of earth.... DEAD plant matter, animal and ground up minerals......... the rest is "rock" and the finite amount of water.... and if you BAAAAAAD people do the research you'll find that in the 1800's there was a mini ice age with absolutely no spring summer and no fall,,,,, what does that mean to EWE ? the earth has cycles its natural and normal and best of all even if you save all the pop can tabs in the world and buy a few carbon credits... you CAN not stop it!!!

if you want to help the planet ,plant a tree every week ,if everyone on the planet did we we would be able to reverse the destructive processes

reduce carbon emisions,and they are already working on that by alternative forms of energy and regulations on carbon producing materials,aerosol cans,burning rubbish,industrial chimneys,powerplants etc.

the capture of carbon and the production of water and assist the aquiferous manta.

the world bank pays large subsidies for reforrestation to capture carbon and the best tree for this is the Pawlonia

Waterharvesting projects ,such as millions of small dams.to redirect over ground waterflows from the rains into the ground to supply subteranian water supplies.

the protection of existing forrests.

stop building more highways,urban planning to include vegetation stop building cities encourage people to return to the land to conduct their business from there which now has become possible thanks to the internet.

education to motivate people to auto sufficiency by building more home food gardens.

Answer 4

Any punishment that could be dealt to the Earth that would destroy it would not be something humans would be able to stop. That's because the Earth is too large and solid to be affected by what we have to dish out. It will live much longer than us, no matter what we do to it.

Answer 5

a few of us realize it. some think it's just some conspiracy if someone in the government is concerned with the planet. kind of like with the global warming thing.

Answer 6

I do! I do as much as I can from recycling to limiting the use of antibacterial agents which will end up in our sewer system and in our lakes affecting fishes, plants and algae....

Answer 7

Of course we need to preserve earth.After all it's the only planet we have.

Answer 8

Wait, what? Dammit... I was just planning on moving to Mars or something...

Answer 9

I think its stupid that global warming isn't discussed allot. Especially in America. we should be stopping what we started.
