Global warming......?

Question

Should we be worried? Maybe we should start paying attention to the things going on with climate changes around us and make a change, what can we do? Is it too late?

Answer 1

Phytoplankton...Phytoplankton...Phytopla...

Now then! If you'd prefer a different answer...

Phytoplankton...Phytoplankton...Phytop...

It's ocean-borne algae and it provides 98% of the oxygen in our atmosphere. It also removes most of the CO2.

and? IT'S DYING!!!!

It can be SAVED, tho!

Look up the Geritol Effect on wikipedia.

Did you know that we can "grow" oil faster than we use it?

Did you know that warming homes and offices can be free?

Did you know that Ethanol from corn requires burning more petroleum than it prevents?

Did you know that Geothermal is cheaper than nuclear and would last longer if the problem of contaminants were solved?

Did you know that I have enough questions to keep you reading til the Spring of 2059?

qwerty

Answer 2

If there is global warming, then why did we just have the coldest winter in 125 years

Answer 3

global warming i dont think can be stopped but we can stop helping it becoming faster,this requires global co operation between all countries ,and taking into account human nature and the world politics ,it is unlikely that this will happen,

At least not untill we are all in the middle of planetary disastres and it becomes a battle for the survival of humanity every where.

POSITIVE ACTIONS

if you want to help the planet ,plant a tree every week ,if everyone on the planet did we we would be able to slowdown the destructive processes

reduce carbon emisions,and they are already working on that by alternative forms of energy and regulations on carbon producing materials,aerosol cans,burning rubbish,industrial chimneys,powerplants etc.

the capture of carbon and the production of water and assist the aquiferous manta.

the world bank pays large subsidies for reforrestation to capture carbon and the best tree for this is the Pawlonia

Waterharvesting projects ,such as millions of small dams.to redirect over ground waterflows from the rains into the ground to supply subteranian water supplies.

the protection of existing forrests.

stop building more highways,urban planning to include vegetation stop building cities encourage people to return to the land to conduct their business from there which now has become possible thanks to the internet.

education to motivate people to auto sufficiency by building more home food gardens.

education on environmental awareness

education on family planning to curb over´populaion

Agricultural education and improvements to follow the principals or sustainability and soil management.

more environmental or land ,design to prevent bush fires,such as--fire breaks

,more dams.regulations and control for public behaviour

alternative effeciant public transport to discourage the use of the internal conbustion engine

recicling wastes,limit water use

here are a 100 more ways

Answer 4

Yes, but not for the reasons that most people would have you believe.

Carbon Dioxide isn't a poison.  It is part of nature.  It is what all plants take in during the photosynthetic cycle.  Without CO2, all life on the planet would die.

That said, the amount of it is rising and it isn't being taken up like it should.  With the added heat, moisture from evaporation and CO2, plant life should be flourishing more than ever in recorded history.

It isn't so much we are making too much, but we have destroyed too much of the plant biomass that would take it up again.  People living on the margins of deserts are the biggest threat.  The Sahara grows some 15 miles wider each year.    Multiply this everywhere there is desert or former forestland....it is devastating.

Sadly, you can't convince people to leave these areas if you tried.  That makes is much harder for everyone else.

We, the countries producing a lot of the CO2 have to take steps to reduce our production and to increase the over all biomass of plant life.   If we don't then soon it might become irreversible until we have a huge animal biomass die off.  And mankind will probably be one of them to go.
