Environment? Global warming?

Question

I know there is a big thing about global warming right now, but what can I do to save these animals and the whole EARTH!

I have heard rumors that it in;t even happening, but I want to know your opinion on it, and if/what you are doing to stop it!!!??!

IS there any way to stop it all together? or is it just going to keep on happening, is it natural for the Earth to do this?

Answer 1

The earth does have the ability to renew itself and purge the excess greenhouse gasses from its atomosphere.  The trouble is, we are pouring in more then the atomsophere can purge.  You can make a difference, but you can't expect to save everyone or everything all by yourself.  some of the things I am doing, are, washing clothes only in cold water, hang drying clothes, turning off lights I don't need, replacing light bulbs with more energy efficient ones, reusing shopping bags, buying produce in season from local farms (reduces the greenhouse gasses used to transport fruit from elsewhere), and trying to eat less meat.  I think that we can make a huge difference, but it will take time and conviction.

Answer 2

Global warming doesn't exist.

Answer 3

Despite what the environmentalists say; most scientists are coming to the conclusion that increased activity on the sun is responsible for global warming, so there is really nothing man has done or can do to stop it.

Most scientist also concede that the "hole in the ozone layer" has been there all along.

Environmentalists get grants and funding by keeping the "man made crisis" global warming myth alive.

When I was a kid the crisis that was funding environmentalists was global cooling in the late 60's and early 70's, and acid rain in the late 70's and through out the 80's.

The grants and funds dried up on those and they have become extinct, as will happen to "Global Warming" too.

Just follow the money; it will lead you to some really odd places sometimes.

Answer 4

Climate change is happening, it has been happening for a long time, thousands of years at least.  The question is, has man's activities, specifically are  we as a species causing the climate to get warmer?  No one knows for sure.  Climatologist, who are basically meterologists, like the weather guy on tv. have as a group endorsed this premise, that the climate is getting warmer, however, they regularly release'escape clauses' that will endemify htemselfes from redicule later, statements like, Zian Laio, the head of the NOAA Storm Prediction Center, 'this information is for the free exchange of scientific information only, and should not be utilized by the public or anyone to make spefic predictions concerning numbers of or severity of the storm season.'  The reports are full of these type of statements, which of course the press ignores.  

  How can you help save the earth?  Get a good education, look at information  form an intuitive and common sense point of view.  And do not take anyones word, including mine, for granted, learn the information for yourself, especially people or an organization with agendas other than yours.  I will give you an example.  The Sierra Club likes to present itself as a conservation group of the people, with everyones best interest at heart. Do you know that a past president said in a printed release, that the problem the world had is that there are too many people, that human kind needs to be wiped off the earth, then earth will have a chance to heal-scary-strange, wouldn't you agree?

Answer 5

global warming is to real. and i recycle, use eco-friendly products(they're just as cheap) and use a hybrid car (saves $ on gas)

Answer 6

Global Warming is now called Climate Change because the "scientists" who predicted rapidly increasing higher temperatures proved to be wrong (again!) Some of these same scientists also predicted "Nuclear Winter" fears too! Since the Earth did not warm up as fast as predicted we now call this "normal cycle" the earth goes through as Climate Change!

The Earth has had tens of thousands of Global Warmings/Climate Changes over the past billion years!  Climate change is a normal cycle that Earth goes through!

The one question that you should always present to militant environmentalists is "if there were no human beings living on Earth - would Climate Change take place?"  Of course the answer has to be yes!  Climate Change is a normal cycle that the Earth will go through again and again!

Yes, chunks of Antarctica is falling off from time to time, but this has been going on for 10,000 years!  The center of Antarctica is getting thicker - more ice - not less!  This continent is larger than the U.S. and Europe - of course from time to time pieces will fall into the ocean!  It's normal!

The U.S. has more trees now than 1000 years ago!  Human beings put out forest fires!  The logging industry cleans up brush, builds up roads (allowing the fire department to get to fires and put them out, unlike forests where logging is not allowed!) The logging industry replants trees too!  They do not take every tree, they leave some for our future!

Global Warming is not man made!  But, men and corporations will make billions of dollars off of this new fear!  Global Warming fears replaced the fear of the "Cold War!"  The Military Industrial Complex made billions off of the Cold War and there will be people and corporations will make their billions of dollars off this new fear!  Al Gore made over 100 million dollars off GL is an example!

Answer 7

the algore lunatics are just creating a new religion.

Their diatribe is 100% false and flawed.

We humans can't change the climate.

Answer 8

i do believe it's happening because there's scientifical evidence. it's not bullshit. the thing is...i just really couldn't care.

Answer 9

I don't believe in the theory of man-made climate change.  If it is occurring - and there isn't alot of scientific proof it actually is - climate change is something that has existing since the dawn of time and will continue to occur long after the global warming scare has died down.  Considering the large amount of "greenhouse gases" natural sources such as the ocean, dead plants, and volcanic activity release into the air every year - before the global warming "crisis" became an attractive political issue, I might add - the much smaller amount created by humans is only a fraction of the greenhouse gases going into the environment.

I believe that using safer products and conserving/recycling our resources is a great thing to do.  I tend to splurge on the best, safest products I can for my budget.  But do I believe that current warming trends are leading humanity to doomsday as the news and politicians would like for us to believe?  No, I do not.

This will help!

Answer 11

I think people should respect their environment first. Right now people are increasing production and harming the earth and the animals with toxic gases, trash in dumps, and carbon emission.

Answer 12

It doesnt exist, their is no proof of it existing, their is certainly no proof that any ice caps melting isnt just the planet going through another cycle, and their is absulutely no proof is has anything to do with humanity.

By the way, scientists have come to a CONCENSUS on global warming, they have not proved it, and they have not come to fully agree, the problem is anyone who questions global warming is publically torn to pieces by their peers and their career is thrown in the toilet.

Stop watching the ******* news and listening to your stupid friends.

Answer 13

PETA

is 4 animal testing

errm just start by spreading the word on the internet

hang posters

and other things to send a message

thats what im gunna do this summer

Answer 14

Over the past year, anecdotal evidence for a cooling planet has exploded. China has its coldest winter in 100 years. Baghdad sees its first snow in all recorded history. North America has the most snowcover in 50 years, with places like Wisconsin the highest since record-keeping began. Record levels of Antarctic sea ice, record cold in Minnesota, Texas, Florida, Mexico, Australia, Iran, Greece, South Africa, Greenland, Argentina, Chile — the list goes on and on.No more than anecdotal evidence, to be sure. But now, that evidence has been supplanted by hard scientific fact. All four major global temperature tracking outlets (Hadley, NASA’s GISS, UAH, RSS) have released updated data. All show that over the past year, global temperatures have dropped precipitously.A compiled list of all the sources can be seen here.  The total amount of cooling ranges from 0.65C up to 0.75C — a value large enough to wipe out nearly all the warming recorded over the past 100 years. All in one year’s time. For all four sources, it’s the single fastest temperature change ever recorded, either up or down.

Answer 15

global warming isnt true....i cant remember what it was called...buh i saw a video at uni which gave results to show that the earth's temperature changes due to the sun's behaviour and radiation e.g. sun's temp goes up...so does the earths! and the whole CO2 contribution thing about adding to global warming is a load of c**p!

However the main factor to worry about fossil fuels and if they will last for the next 100 years...so therefore just dont waste electricity as then we will have nuthin to depend on =O lol i hope this was helpful....

Answer 16

Global warming may or may not be happening.  Have you heard that 2007 was the coldest year on record?  I didn't think so, but it was.  In either case it is NOT man made.  The sun is the big factor for our planets temp and there isn't anything we can do about it either way.  It is all mass hysteria and so many people have bought into it, only time will show the truth of the matter.
