    This will be soo much harder than most people realise.

  7. Humans are successful because we have learned to use natural resouces in the environment.  The left apparently feels guilt about human success.  They represent a portion of the only species on earth that frets about it's success.  They dream up all sorts of problems that are really blown way out of proportion.  There is a saying.  If you have no food, you have one problem.  If you have lots of food, you have many problems.  The left is apparently too well fed.

  8. same question, how you prevent global cooling?

    that is the state of the world we are in right now.

  9. We cannot do much any more about Global Warming .

    But we can do a lot about not damaging the Environment more,and be more frugal or economic with our Natural resources ,since we get an additional 70 million people every year with an accumulative factor included ,

    And we can do a lot about contaminations,especially of the soil,Air and water.

    ECO FRIENDLY BEHAVIOR

    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
