Either you accept that you are in the thick of it or you acknowledge that man is the the primary driver of the problem.
So, it's no longer a matter of preventing it, it's a matter of limiting how much more worse it will get.
Personally, I don't believe that man is significantly affecting climate, but that doesn't stop me from doing my part to help the environment.
Things you can do to help the environment are, not so coincidentally, also the same kinds of things that will allegedly slow down GW:
Conserve energy - changing driving habits, car-pooling, efficient cars, energy-saving home appliances, reassessing your heating and cooling needs, and many more...
Reducing consumption - reassess your true needs - the less you consume, the less energy expended by factories, farms, and transportation; the more resources available to others who may not be fortunate to have plentiful resources; grow your own produce, buy locally, buy in season; buy used, recycle, sell, or give away items you no longer have a need for; again, many more...
Keep in mind that some people will do more than you, some quite a bit less or not at all. Don't let that distract you from doing the best you can. When you can, volunteer your time or resources towards the environment. Many neighborhoods organize in an effort to make your portion of the community as clean and green as possible.
You don't have to wear the environmental equivalent of a "hair shirt" or take some vow of poverty. Maintain the priorities in life that make you feel purposeful, just try to include a concern for the planet we all share.

As most well informed people know, Global Warming causes Climate shift. Science has found that in the past the earth has experienced a number of Ice Ages as a result of climate shift. All this happened before automobiles. Global Warming cannot be prevented, but it's obvious that human beings have contributed to a number of factors that will undoubtedly bring about a Climate Shift far sooner than in earth's natural cycle. In addition, Global Warming is already happening, you can't prevent something that's already happened or is in progress. But it really couldn't hurt to cut back on pollution as a means of preserving anything that hasn't been polluted, cut down, or killed off.

the only thank you to ward off worldwide warming is to maintain the solar's output at a persevering with fee. The solar has extra to do with the temperature of the earth then all of guy. think of approximately this, scientist let us know that the earth has long previous by way of multiple ice an prolonged time. by some potential the earth warmed sufficient to get us to the place we are actually without one little bit of guy-made enter. Now scientist ( seem at who money the study ) choose us to have confidence that guy is able to impress the climate of the earth. The earth is going by way of cycles of warming and cooling and has long before guy created pollution. Many will say that the earth's climate is changing swifter sue to guy. How do all of us be conscious of this? guy has purely saved precise records for form of one hundred years so we've a small base of awareness to paintings from. pollution is in no way a great concept so something we can do to maintain the earth sparkling is nice yet no longer the unconventional ideals reported, yet no longer lived via, Al Gore and his followers

We can still prevent it, people think we can't but they are being really negative. We can start buy changing our lights and house hold electricities. The second step is to use alternitive fuels, third step is to plant more trees, also raised less cows, because cow poop releases more co2 up in the atmosphere other than cars. And presereve lands that has habbitats.

If everybody left the refigerator door open one day a week all that cold air would go a long way to cool the planet.
Also don't walk in carbon because it gives you a carbon footprint.

first, to destroy the factories of cigarettes all over the world.
because that's one of the major causes of pollution in the atmosphere...
yah, we will lose billions of money when we do that, but it will definitely help and benefit our children.
second, to innovate vehicles using water instead of petroleums...
or you can watch the documentary of Al Gore
"An Inconvenient Truth"
we can do a lot of thins for more follow the link please.
