Question

preventive measures and safety steps to be taken

Answer 1

Nothing. I'm going to watch the world around me crumble and laugh.

Doesn't matter.  The Sun, not man is the cause of all temperature changes on Earth.

There is nothing man can do to change the climate one way or the other.

Answer 3

Most scientists agree that humans have little or no effect on the climate, so there's nothing you can do to reduce global warming.

Educate yourself and you won't fall prey to the global warming hoax or any other hoaxes they want you to fall for.

BB: Global warming is a natural phenomenon. Over the past 650 million years there have been at least three incidents resulting the massive species extinctions (90% of species have expired). These were not the meteor impact events. The problem is that nearly every expert in this field indicates that human activity (release of greenhouse gases) has significantly impacted this phenomenon.

Answer 8

There are plenty of reasons besides the man made global warming hoax to start living more efficiently. Fossil fuels will eventually run out. Man has had a long history of abusing resources. Take, for instance the buffalo. Somehow, though man has been able to compensate for his greed with a wonderfully innovative mind. There's no doubt in my mind, we'll be able to do this again. Maybe we already have. It is not a stretch to me to imagine that there are blueprints locked away somewhere for an incredibly efficient new energy source. There's no doubt in my mind, that big brother will squeeze every drop of oil out of mother earth before this new technology comes to light. There's just too much money in it, and that is in fact what makes the world go round.

Answer 9

Answer 12

I'll try to f**t less often. And I'll stop cutting the grass in my lawn and let it all grow back into a natural forest; more trees will grow AND they will be able to help soak up all of those nasty green house gasses!

Answer 13

I am converting my car to run partly on HHO. I expect to gain about 25% better mileage, and save myself some money in the process. I will probably go out and buy something stupid like a plasma tv with my savings, just to keep the balance!

Answer 14

well i've taken to throwing my ice cubes out on the lawn at night thought it might help somewhat

Answer 15

Since I'm far from rich, I know I am not a cause of global warming and so by continuing to live my life as I am living it right now, I am contributing to reduce global warming. Poor people all over the world are not causing global warming. I'm nearly poor by the end the month. One of these days when the next moth is late, I am going to be really poor. Rich people cause global warming, and everybody who helps rich people stay rich is a cause of global warming. For example, everyone who goes to movies is causing global warming because they help keep people like Angelina Jolie rich. She is the cause of a lot of global warming because she travels by air so much. She doesn't want to stop gw. Nor do Madonna, Rod Stewart, all the political candidates in America who are criss-crossing the country by air for votes. It's hopeless. We are doomed. Just grab whatever bit of happiness you can, and just hope the planet doesn't destruct while you are alive.  And don't have babies.
