Answer 6

Hamsters,
all pollution can eventually be traced back to over population. So investigate an organization called "Zero Population Growth." Find them at http://www.zpg.org

We need to have no more than one child per person to maintain the size of the world's population as it is today. There are classes you can take about environmental issues, and often there are articles in all sorts of magazines about what you can do locally, or even in your own house. Read everything you can.

Answer 7

1) be informed, and limit your own use of pollutants; your health is at stake
2) become an activist, and take part in organizations that sponsor anti pollution bills
3) become a whistleblower, and alert to unknown dangers in your community
4) start a blog, a group on Facebook or MySpace, join Forums . . .
5) read my blog, that is all about green stuff, green activism, green psychology, etc . . .

Answer 9

Most products today are made with petroleum products - material for clothing, plastics (drink bottles, bags, shoes/boots... etc). Also, there are all the obvious petroleum products such as gasoline, natural gas, fuel oils, lubricants, asphalt.. etc. When they pull the oil out of the earth, it takes a lot of equipment such as trucks (HUGE trucks) and landmovers. When they refine the crude oil it also takes a lot of energy, which create emmissions. The less demand there is for oil, the less it'll be produced, thus reducing emmissions caused by pulling it out of the earth and refining it. To reduce overall emmissions on a personal level, try buying used clothing and reusable drinking bottles (nalgene or ones made of stainless steel, which is better for your health), and fewer goods in general. Also, recycle what you can and any clothing you can/don't want to use anymore, donate them to an organization that will use them (salvation army, value village, goodwill..etc). Also, walk or ride your bike when you can, or take transit for long distance travel. Another thing that I have done is made shopping bags out of used pillow cases, which was super easy (I am not much of sewer either). I have also given them to friends and family for xmas presents! They do use them since they have them now ;-).

I don't know where you live but since it can get down to -30 degrees celcius where I am, we need to heat our homes. In my area, we use natural gas to heat the house and our water. I have installed a digital thermostat so I can program the furnace to lower the temperature when I am away at work, and then turn it on when I get home. It turns it down again when I am sleep. I have noticed a saving on my bill too - which means I am using way less natural gas. Also, my hot water tank is natural gas heated. Although i eventually want to install a 'hot-water-on-demand' system (that heats the water only when you need it, rather than wasting energy keeping it hot all the time), I have figured I can't afford that right now. Instead, I have turned down the hot water tank to 'WARM' rather than 'HOT' since I don't need it boiling all the time. Lowering the air temperature (so the furnace doesn't burn as much gas) and turning down the hot water tank reduces the emmissions they give off.

I know it sounds cliche but if everyone reduces their own demand for petroleum by just a little bit, less will be required by the world which will in turn decrease the emmissons produced.

cheers

At this point, there's no way. With 6 billion people? Cutting it down is the only reasonable possibility, and a small one at that. First of all ride a bike, insulate your house, recycle, be conservative, turn the water off when you brush your teeth...
Oh wait! Guess what! That'll only make the most miniscule difference. Convince other people to do it, maybe a billion or so. Start a revolution that kills millions of people.
