What should i do to help global warming?

Question

Im doing a science project and i need an idea

Answer 1

you would be a traitor to Humanity if you did,

and far too many people are helping Global Warming .
Which really does not need any help

Try to slow it down would be much nicer
here are some ecological wisdoms
that would be good for the Environment and our strained Natural resources

The best we can do as individuals is be more responsible ,in our own neck of the woods
Organize well publicized clean up parties ,talk on the radio
Have citizen meetings
Get the schools involved to plant trees and listen to environmental awareness talks,

If you do any cleaning up leave signs behind saying who cleaned,why and ask people not to start dumping rubbish again ,leave a hole or bins ,in case people come with trash ,

POSITIVE ACTIONS)
Classify trash take out all the organic waste and make compost with it ,the worst you can do is throw it with the trash
70% of contamination is due to organic waste that is mixed in with the garbage .
And it is just as bad in the sewer where it helps to breed rats and in the landfill it poisons the ground

And it is the easiest to take care of
o first of all we have to classify trash at least keep the organic to one side ,like in a plastic bin with a lid
If you got a few meters of ground ,you only need 1 or 2 square meters in a shallow hole ,in the shade ,that you can wet now and again ,where you dump everything that is organic ,from toilet paper,bones vegetable cuttings ,eggshells,,,excrement ,and cover regularly with leaves to keep humid and to hide any smell
the worms will come and decompose the wastes turning it into beautiful black soil for the garden of flower pots .
If you are in a apartment ,if you have a balcony get a big plastic bin drill some holes in the side and lid ,
Add a few buckets of sand now and again to put over the trash ,you should really stir or move the stuff at times to aerate it and ensure that the decomposition is overall ,keep moist
This rubbish does not get big very fast and the thing works for a long time with out getting full

If you want to help the planet ,plant a tree every week ,if everyone on the planet did we we would be able to slowdown the destructive processes
Reduce carbon emissions,and they are already working on that by alternative forms of energy and regulations on carbon producing materials,aerosol cans,burning rubbish,industrial chimneys,power plants etc.
Water harvesting projects ,such as millions of small dams.to redirect over ground water flows from the rains into the ground to supply subterranean water supplies.
The protection of existing forests.
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.
Education on environmental awareness
education on family planning to curb over´population
Agricultural education and improvements to follow the principals or sustainability and soil management.
More environmental or land ,design to prevent bush fires,such as--fire breaks
More dams.regulations and control for public behavior
Alternative efficient public transport to discourage the use of the internal combustion engine

Answer 2

Do some digging to get actual facts. You may be surprised. My kid had the same assignment. She found this website: http://mysite.verizon.net/mhieb/WVFossils/greenhouse_data.html, and checked out the references. Then she went to the library and did some more digging. See what you come up with. She got an "A" with a perfect score. Turns out you can't do a thing about global warming, if the scientists are right. Forget the politicians. Here are some references for starters. There is over 117 years of research on global warming. Good luck.

Answer 3

I bet that you did not want to "help" global warming, but rather to help save the planet from the effects of global warming.
Plant trees
Reduce air travel. Jet contrails are a large contributor to global warming.
Turn down the heat in your home and put on an extra sweater.
Eat locally grown food. Trucking food from distant areas is a major contributor to global warming.
Make your next car a hybrid. Hybrids can save you 50% on your gasoline bill.

Answer 4

don't do the project, you will just worsen the situation of global warming. instead, make a project about how to slow down global warming. try use comparisons like what is the temperature before when global warming is not yet worse and the temperature now when global warming is getting worse... something like that

Answer 5

Well, to help Global Warming I guess you could follow Bush's lead and show how the auto industry can't make fuel efficient vehicles or show how we have to use more oil and more coal.

On the other hand if you wanted to show how we can help slow down global warming. Try showing the difference in energy use between incandesent, florescent, and LED lighting sources. And how just by using on demand water heaters and efficient furnaces we can cut carbon emissions.

Answer 6

Simple thing you can do is change the old incandescent light bulb to the more energy efficient florescent light bulb. Drive more energy efficient cars, avoid SUV!! You can also ask your electric company about using power generated by renewable sources, such as wind power and solar. Insulate your house better and buy energy efficient appliances.

Answer 7

in case you want to receive furnish money for climate study, do you think of which you will get a cheque in case you're saying," i want the furnish, as i think of that i'm able to show that the figures that the present paradigm is predicated upon are incorrect" ? the great environmentalist, David Bellamy, has been silenced, and refused airtime. there continues to be no shown causative hyperlink between the quantity of Co2 in the ambience, and a upward thrust in worldwide temperatures. The WWWF photographs of the polar bears swimming have been taken in the Arctic summer season; while the ice cap partly melts, as they could no longer arise to image in the wintry climate. The ice grow to be too thick! The East-Anglian uni study figures. "Oh! The figures do no longer tournament our expectancies. Oh properly. save quiet. with the aid of fact all of us understand that we are real." while the perception, and the religion is greater substantial than squarely dealing with the valid doubts of countless non furnish-supported scientists, technology has been superceded by making use of religious zealots. As Oliver Cromwell colourfully pronounced." I pray thee, in the bowels of Christ, evaluate that thou mayest be incorrect."

Answer 8

Well, to help global warming, you should burn lots of trees and let your car run all day.

Answer 9

Create an art project using recycled materials.

Answer 10

1. Recycle
2. Consume less energy - this includes using less electricy, using your car less.
3. Buy energy efficient devices (including computers)
4. Buy carbon offsets - see http://www.carbonfreepc.com.au

Answer 11

Try doing something that the supporters of the theory refuse to do....look at all the facts, not just the ones that can be used to support the conclusion that you want to believe.
