Take away the funding to study "global warming". Once the money ran out, no one would care anymore.
There would be a new crisis that was going to cause the pending doom of man to take the place of global warming.

Well, alternative energy utilized best possible - for a start.
Germany e.g., a highly industrialized and automatized country
with 82 millions is able to cover almost 10% from wind power -
at an area neatly fitting in the Hudson Bay. Here at the coast it
slowly becomes disturbing, almost nowhere free sight without
whirling anymore, so even there we will get limits eventually.
(least that we got it all good - still among five top polluters)
No one on the world buys American windplants because you do
not produce a significant amount at a high standard - why not ?
If I remember well, asides wind there was not much in Montana
and Wyoming - lol - Megawatts farting to a void, so to speak :D
And what's up with Silicon Valley - aren't solar paneels silicon ?
So many office skyscrappers are cloaked in plastic, even with
polycristalline (not very effective yet) photovoltaic elements you
could come close to the same price, plus an option on export ...
Only Japan and Germany could compete.
So - just don't muck about. Make business.
Saving the world might be a collateral effect.

One of the biggest solutions for global. WALK everywhere you go. The billions of cars we have on the road everyday, 90% of them for one peron spews out billions of carbon emssions daily. If people would walk or talk public transport that would help.
Also Nuclear power plants help ease the burning of coal plants.
Third is electric cars. Not a hybrid mind you but a true electric car.
http://www.teslamotors.com/ This is the car of the furture, while right now still has a future price though and is expensive. Soon there will be more and better ones out like the Chevrolet Volt also

the simplest thing is to increase the mass of trees, worldwide, by the same weight of fossil fuels humans use every year, and then some.
another is to reduce the amount of fossil fuels we use, by more efficient technologies, from fuel saving cars to more efficient lighting.
another is to supply more energy from non fossil fuel sources, wind, sun, waves, geothermal and others.
but the simplest thing would be to raise the prices of energy, one gallon of car fuel should cost 6 US$ (the price you pay in the EU) and the same with electricity, this will make people, organizations and governments save energy and look for alternative sources.

one is by recognizing man has little influence on the climate the earth is not at the mercy (yet) of man's driving habits. The climate will do what it does whether we drive or not. second realize that co2 is not a pollutant anymore than oxygen is and is only a minor greenhouse gas, water vapor is five times more a greenhouse gas. and what do most jets give off? water. there are estimated about 40,000 or was it 400,000? planes in the air around the world at any time, (I think that was the figure they said on tv) imagine all that water vapor from all those planes being released constantly.
I remember when they grounded all plants after 9/11. after a day or so the sky was so clear, I couldn't believe it, I didn't make the connection until someone mentioned about water vapor and other things given off by planes. I learned this several years after wards. so if they care about the enviroment ground planes. travel by boat. or car instead or train or bus. of course there is to much money being made and it affects corporations more than the average joe, but cars limiting them affects the average joe more than corporations who use trucks and special vehicles that they can write off as a business expense. so the burden of it all falls on us. welcome to the world slave.

Global warming is not a problem. Every few years the average temp. changes for the seasons. Some times it goes up and down. About 8 or 9 years ago the average summer high was about 6 degrees hotter than it ever got this year, and this winter will probably be just as cold as last year. But there is so much concern about it because the media loves disaster. If you would have never have heard about global warming then you would have probably went your whole life with out noticing a difference, instead of picking out every little change in the environment.

Buy Al Gore's movie and book. Then buy carbon credits which line his pockets. Then I guess we will be too broke to buy anything else that will cause Global Warming.

There are no solutions for global warming. The biosphere is going to do what it is going to do and humans cannot change that. Hell, people can't even get Britney Spears to behave. What makes you think you can change the behavior of nearly 7 billion other humans?

How about a natural solution for a natural problem. When the planet starts to heat up the amount of water in the atmosphere will increase. This will create a cloud formation and reflect most to the solar heat away from the planet. This in turn lowers the GMST and brings on an Global Cooling.
I Know it sound unusual but before the planet can naturally cool down it must first heat up.
This is how a lot of scientist believe most of the ice ages were formed. Even as late as the 1980's scientists were worried over a possible new ice age.
