What can YOUTH do to help stop climate change?

Question

I was reading in my local paper and it said that young people aged 11-18 do nothing to help or environment and don't care.

I want to write a letter to the editor about how young people can make a difference and help our environment.

So... what are some ways that youth can help stop global warming?

Do you agree or disagree?

:)

Answer 2

Why would you want to stop climate change?

You actually believe that people can stop the earth from changing?  I don't believe so.

Given that the earth does change, would you prefer it to be slightly cooler, or slightly warmer?  Cold kills more people than heat.  Cold means more mining and burning coal and oil, leading to more pollution.  Cold reduces crop production and means more starvation and poverty.

Global warming is a good thing.  

Feeling a desire to fit in with a crowd that is doing something good might be admirable, but a desperate urge to fit in that leads to mindless adoption of foolish ideas as though they were gospel is not such a good thing, really.

Answer 3

Nothing.

Answer 4

This is what we all (ages 10-until you die) can do!

Young people are those who are going everywhere using there vehicles they can avoid usage of vehicles instead of using the vehicles they can use to go by walk because they are having enough stamina to walk so the OLD ages can use vehicle for a shortdistance and this also reduce traffic and green house Gas emmission.

Answer 6

stop drinking soda, the plastic bottles are manufactured from petroleum products, sugar rots your teeth and the trucks that deliver them run on stinky ole diesel fuel.

I disagree.  I believe we are nearing the end of a mini ice age.  I recommend that you go on line and research ice ages.  There is very useful information there.
