Global warming is here and it’s entirely up to members of the human race to stop it. Each time we get into a car or buy something from a restaurant, we are effectively adding to the effects and dangers the excess use of fossil fuels have on the environment.

The problem isn’t simply about just adding a couple of degrees to the global temperatures being experienced all over the world. This is about a whole lot more such as the melting ice caps that will send some of the worlds best farmlands into oblivion, thereby reducing our global food supply. It’s also about the displacement that will occur in cities such as London. New York and Bangkok, the rising of ocean waters will flood a lot of the habitable places in the lowland regions of the world. It’s also about the spread of diseases that we once thought had disappeared and diseases that the developed world was protected against; this includes diseases such as malaria and tuberculosis. This is also because the insects which can survive at these low temperatures will continue to breed and spread these diseases a lot faster.

Global warming has global effects, and it will also take some work from everyone the world over to control the effects of such warming. These are the four things that every individual on earth can do in other to reduce the amounts of carbon dioxide that are constantly being released and trapped in the atmosphere on a daily basis.

Conserve Electricity.

There are so many ways that people can save electricity without necessarily affecting the way that we live.

Turn off lights, appliances, TV’s and computers when you’re not using them. According to research one computer monitor that is left on overnight uses enough energy to print more than 5,000 copies.

Make sure you purchase appliances that have been certified as energy efficient.

Try to wash clothes inside water that is cold when you can.

Wrap your water heater and keep the temperature at 130 degrees or lower

Install a thermostat that can be programmed

Switch off your AC and open the doors and windows when you can.

Remove traditional bulbs and get newer bulbs which are longer lasting and energy efficient too.

Save Water. You can help save the global water supply by doing all or any of the following:

Place a plastic bottle that is full of water inside your toilet water tank. A toilet will use anywhere between 3 to 5 gallons of water with every single flush. Eliminating some room in the tank may mean that you save up to half a gallon of water each time you flush the tank.

Fix any leaking pipes or faucets immediately

Wash your laundry only when you have a complete load.

Collect and use rainwater in order to water your plants, feed your animals and was any outdoor furniture and you cars too.

Recycle and Reuse. In a landfill even a biodegradable milk container may take as much as 5 years to decompose. These recycling tips may help you save the earth:

Don’t buy any disposable utensils such as plates, napkins and cups, try to use washable items and thus save on landfill space and money.

Fill your community recycling containers. Check in your area to know which type of items can be picked up by recycling carriers.

Reuse food containers to keep other items such as leftovers and smaller items too.

Go Green. Follow the natural movement by:

Planting a backyard garden or planting a few trees in your park.

Switching to cleaning supplies that are made from natural products

Starting a compost pile in your backyard or together with your neighbors.

Starting a compost pile in your backyard or with a group of neighbors

Buy organic foods and other organic products

Eat only fresh fruits and vegetables. This way you save on packaging waste.

A few facts to ponder, first a volcano will spew more carbon dioxide into the atmosphere in 2 hours than all of the carbon dioxide producing machines people have used in 10 years ( i.e.. cars, power plants, etc.) and there has been a lot of volcanic activity in the last 100 years across the globe. Second BOVINE gas is the 2nd leading cause of carbon dioxide on the planet after volcanoes, yes that’s right, cow farts. Third there are under water volcanoes that superheat water while expelling carbon dioxide into the atmosphere on a daily basis. This effects the water temps around the globe depending on how many of these under water systems go at once. Heat the water and the weather changes and ice melts, science 101.

There are more trees on the earth today in better condition than there were 100 years ago. There is actually more ice covering the earth today than 200 years ago it has just melted in some places but frozen over in others.

Our cars and machines pollute less today in 2007 with more of each than with less of each in the 1950′s.

Don’t let people scare you into fearing changes in the weather remember 10,000 years ago there was ice 2 miles deep covering the planet. The whole continent of Africa used to be a tropical rain forest. If you want to conserve please do, I use energy efficient light bulbs (you know the curly florescent bulbs you can now use in regular light fixtures). Why do I use them? Because they use 75% less energy to run than regular light bulbs and I cut my electric bill from $ 75 a month to $ 20 a month. It was a financial decision; I save about $ 600 dollars a year by using them. They are also a lot brighter than regular light bulbs.

This is just an example of what I mean. If you want to conserve DO IT!! If you don’t want to that is OK. Most of the talking heads like the Kennedy’s and Gore don’t conserve energy at all but they are going to try to force us to. Gore even has the gumption to propose a GLOBAL WARMING TAX on us through the United Nations and our own American government.

Just remember this and you will understand what is happening… NOTHING STAYS THE SAME!!! We all live on a gigantic rock hurling at thousands of miles per hour through the ever expanding universe. We are kept in a planetary line by gravity created by a massive nuclear reactor THE SUN! Yes, that’s right! The SUN is the most magnificent nuclear reaction creation to sustain life and it can also destroy entire universes. We spin around this thing everyday and the SUN spews coronal mass ejections or waves of radioactive materials at us everyday. This would also help create global warming. Don’t you think? Scientist do….And don’t forget the axis of the earth. As we rotate different areas of the earth have different positions towards the SUN. How do we know what just 10 inches in any rotation direction of the earth will do to cause an environmental change on our planet?

If you want to fear something I will give you something to fear and here it is. At any time an asteroid 2 to 3 miles thick and 5 miles wide could hit the earth and all life as we know it would cease to exist in the blink of an eye. Laughing are you? There are only 20 to 25 people observing the skies, yet there are millions of huge rocks that are miles in diameter floating around (asteroids) in our little universe. They call them asteroids because they are the second cousin twice removed from a hemorrhoid or a pain in the ass (just kidding).

Global Warming on the other hand is a progression of earth that will happen no matter what people do. Fear mongers are trying to make it out to be us the human beings fault other than nature and in turn taking advantage of people for the gain of political power.
