  1. The Greenhouse Effect - Possible Solutions

    Reducing use of fossil fuels would considerably reduce the amount of carbon dioxide produced, as well as reducing the levels of the pollutants which cause acid rain. This can be achieved by either using less energy altogether, or using alternative energy sources. You can help save energy in lots of ways:

    Turn off lights when you leave a room

    If you have a car, don't use it for short journeys

    Basically, anything at all that uses less energy  

    Eliminating the use of CFCs is something we can actually do.

    Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) were invented in the 1920s, they are a compound of carbon containing chlorine and fluorine. CFCs are man made chemicals, so we call them synthetic chemicals. Since their introduction CFCs have been used as:

    Refrigerants in refrigerators and air conditioning units

    Propellants in aerosol cans

    Foaming agents in the production of packaging

    Cleaners used in the electronics industry

    Fire extinguisher chemicals

    New refrigerants have been developed, and new aerosols use other propellants such as butane, so it is now actually quite difficult to get hold of CFCs (assuming you wanted to get some for something anyway).

    Stopping deforestation by using renewable forests and planting a new tree whenever one is felled would help to raise the carbon dioxide absorbing ability of the planet.

    You should also recycle everything you can to avoid using up the world's resources.

    Comprehensive Energy Plan To Lower Gasoline Prices

                  This is how we will do it. And this why we will do it.







           This country has so much under used industrial capacity in our Auto Plants, Airplane Plants, Steel Plants and Electronics Plants to make America Energy Independent in 2 to 5 years. We can build enough windmills and solar power and wave generation energy plants to replace 90% of all of the electricity generated by COAL and NATURAL GAS.



          The Coal and Natural Gas saved by Green Replaceable Elecrrical Generation can now be used to make fuel for cars, trucks, busses, boats and airplanes, and or plastics, chemicals, fertilizers and pharmacuticals.



          We need a comprehensive plan that puts America back to work in endeavors that benefit 99% of America.

  5. Since 1995, there has been significant and faster than anticipated technical progress in greenhouse gas emissions reduction. The options over the next 20 years would include improving energy efficiency for buildings, transport and manufacturing, conversion to natural gas for energy supply, as well as low-carbon energy supply systems such as biomass, wind, nuclear and hydroelectric power systems, the reduction of methane and nitrous oxide emissions in agriculture and, with some applications, the minimization of fluorinated gas emissions.

    Forests and agricultural lands provide significant carbon mitigation potential, which would not necessarily be permanent but it may allow time for other options to be further developed and implemented. The global potential could be in the order of 100 GtC by 2050, equivalent to about 10% to 20% of the fossil fuel emissions during that period.

    Social learning and innovation, as well as changes in institutional structures could contribute to climate change mitigation. Changes in collective rules and individual behavior may have significant effects on greenhouse gas emissions, but would take place within complex institutional, regulatory and legal settings.
