  1. Reduce Greenhouse Gas Emissions


  2. Pressurize a plane with ozone, and patch up the hole in our ozone layer!

  3. Take shorter showers. Use a rake instead of a leaf blower. Buy organic foods. Don't use synthetic fertilizers. Water plants in the evening to reduce evaporation. Compost your food. Reuse ink cartridges up to four times. Turn the lights off when you leave the room. Switch your bulbs to compact fluorescents. Unplug things you are not using (they still draw a small amount of power). Turn off your computer's monitor when you aren't using it. Use 100% recycled paper. Invest in green funds. Borrow things instead of buying them. Buy second-hand clothes (usually you help poor people, too). Use rechargeable batteries instead of disposable ones. Buy food in the largest possible size to avoid excess waste from packaging. Refuse plastic grocery bags and use reusable ones instead. Eat less beef (it's very resource-intensive). Buy only the food you need and eat all the food you buy. Buy foods that don't need any packaging such as fresh fruits and vegetables. Buy fair-trade coffee. Plant a tree. Only buy appliances with a high Energy Star rating. Buy natural cleaners instead of chemical-laden ones. Buy clothes made with organic cotton, wool, or hemp. Eat produce that's in season. Bike or walk instead of driving. Dry clothes on a clothesline instead of a dryer in the spring and summer. Take public transportation. Next time you buy a car get a hybrid. Install solar panels and get some even for something as small as a cell phone charger (if you can get the larger kind). Support local businesses.

  4. Go vegetarian, recycle, use city buses instead of using your car, use less water, (take shorter showers, turn off water when you brush your teeth etc) Use earth friendly products for your home, (method cleaning products)  

    good luck being "green"

  5. Not to interfere with the resilient capacity of mother earth any more.

    thnks

  6. Replace all the coal burning power plants in the USA with nuclear fission plants.  France did this back in the 1980's and they are so far ahead of us in carbon reduction per capita it isn't even remotely funny.

  7. .How about we get all the hot winded Greens to keep their mouths closed this should drop the avg temp by 2.3 dig.This will only work if they quit all there crying

  8. Throw Zillions of ice cubes in the water ;)

    Also, put Giant sunglasses on the Earth.  It would make it LOOK cool :D

  9. Tax fossil fuels and use the money to develop renewable sources of energy such as wind and solar energy. This will also reduce fossil fuel consumption. A gasoline tax of about $5.00 a gallon, and the equivalents for coal, natural gas, and oil should do the trick.  I know I'll get flamed for this, but the flames won't help cool  the planet!

  10. How about making China and Mexico pay up for all the

    pollution they emit while raking in all those Big Bucks from

    our manufacturing plants there.  They have NO pollution control laws.   Why should they, if they can make the Americans take the blame and pay for it all????  

    Enforce Pollution Control on these and all other countries.

    THEY are not worried about "GLOBAL WARMING!!!!"

  11. I love the idea I've read about where they cover the top of flat city  buildings with grass and plants to keep it cool. Plus, it's more green of course! What a cool idea!! Hopefully they'll do more of that in a lot of different places.

  12. The very best advice anyone could offer would be to stop making WAR and make Peace instead! Nothing wastes more resources and lives than the disease WAR!

  13. Grow trees.

  14. Plant some trees, Use ceiling fans, ride a bike, and eco-friendly your home, into a sustainable energy user.
