Hey what else can i do for global worming other than recycle?

Answer 1

Despite the debate about global warming, it's never a bad thing to be concerned about the environment. There are lots of little things you can do to reduce your energy consumption, thereby reducing your energy costs as well as lessening your "carbon footprint" on the Earth.

Changing your incandescent lightbulbs to compact fluorescent light bulbs will save you money, as well using Energy Star-rated appliances, purchasing a well-insulated water heater and adding things such as caulking and weatherstripping around windows and doors. Lower your thermostat to 68 degrees in the winter and raise it to 74 or so in the summer. Install window blinds to block heavy sun penetration.

If you want to take it a step further, you could investigate the possibility of installing an efficient heating/cooling system such as geothermal or a duel fuel (hybrid) heat pump.

All of these will help reduce energy consumption, energy costs and carbon emissions.

Answer 2

What's this global worming.  Aren't there enough worms on the planet?  Do we really need more?

Answer 3

lol Ben

Answer 4

Better than recycling is reuse if we can do that it will be even better. And if ur living in the U.A.E u can stop the use of plastic bags.

Answer 5

they might be good for fishing

Answer 6

Use compact fluorescent bulbs. Replace three frequently used light bulbs with compact fluorescent bulbs/lamps and save 300 lbs. of carbon dioxide and US$60 per year. A standard compact fluorescent bulb will save around one third of a tonne of greenhouse gas, along with the cost of six of more incandescent globes. And you don’t have to change the bulbs as often.Consider using more, and give them as gifts to family and friends. Consider donating a set to a local charity to refit their office with compact fluorescent lights Remember, CFL bulbs do contain small amounts of toxic mercury. Therefore, proper disposal (recycling) is necessary to prevent any additional landfill contamination.

Use recycled paper. Make sure your printer paper is 100% post consumer recycled paper. Save 5 lbs. of carbon dioxide per ream of paper. Decide if something is really worth printing out. Leave a signature at the bottom of your e-mails reminding the reader to think twice before printing the e-mail. And make the most of scrap paper for shopping lists, notes, scrapbooks, school and college note-taking etc. Only recycle your paper when it has been thoroughly used up! (And don't forget the potential for making origami and other paper crafts.) Unplug unused electronics. Even when electronic devices are turned off, they use energy. Save over 1,000 lbs of carbon dioxide and US$256 per year by unplugging them.

these are just some simple ideas everyone can do to help the earth.

Answer 7

Hopefully, you are talking about global w_a_rming.  For global worming, go see your doctor.  otherwise:

Con artists like Gore have enriched themselves on this issue, taking home Oscars, Nobel Prizes and millions of dollars. Meanwhile, evangelical leaders are setting up their flocks for extreme fleecing by leftist politicos like Barack Obama, who will appeal for Christian votes by talking in glowing, biblical-sounding terms about "being good stewards of God's creation."

Here is truth about global warming:

Global warming is one-half of the climatic cycle of warming and cooling.

The earth's mean temperature cycles around the freezing point of water.

This is a completely natural phenomenon which has been going on since

there has been water on this planet. It is driven by the sun.

Our planet is currently emerging from a 'mini ice age', so is

becoming warmer and may return to the point at which Greenland is again usable as farmland (as it has been in recorded history).

As the polar ice caps decrease, the amount of fresh water mixing with oceanic water will slow and perhaps stop the thermohaline cycle (the oceanic heat 'conveyor' which, among other things, keeps the U.S. east coast warm).

When this cycle slows/stops, the planet will cool again and begin to enter another ice age.

It's been happening for millions of years.

The worrisome and brutal predictions of drastic climate effects are based on computer models, NOT CLIMATE HISTORY.

As you probably know, computer models are not the most reliable of sources, especially when used to 'predict' chaotic systems such as weather.

Answer 8

I wormed the globe last night, so there is nothing you can do.
