• Here are some more steps to prevent global warming:
  
  Replace a regular incandescent light bulb with a compact fluorescent light bulb (cfl)
  CFLs use 60% less energy than a regular bulb. This simple switch will save about 300 pounds of carbon dioxide a year.
  
  Install a programmable thermostat
  Programmable thermostats will automatically lower the heat or air conditioning at night and raise them again in the morning. They can save you $100 a year on your energy bill.
  
  Move your thermostat down 2° in winter and up 2° in summer
  Almost half of the energy we use in our homes goes to heating and cooling. You could save about 2,000 pounds of carbon dioxide a year with this simple adjustment.
  
  Clean or replace filters on your furnace and air conditioner
  Cleaning a dirty air filter can save 350 pounds of carbon dioxide a year.
  
  Choose energy efficient appliances when making new purchases
  Look for the Energy Star label on new appliances to choose the most energy efficient products available.
  
  Do not leave appliances on standby
  Use the %26quot;on/off%26quot; function on the machine itself. A TV set that%26#039;s switched on for 3 hours a day (the average time Europeans spend watching TV) and in standby mode during the remaining 21 hours uses about 40% of its energy in standby mode.
  
  Wrap your water heater in an insulation blanket
  You’ll save 1,000 pounds of carbon dioxide a year with this simple action. You can save another 550 pounds per year by setting the thermostat no higher than 50°C. For 50 steps to prevent global warming, click here:

• You can not stop global warming. It%26#039;s just going to happen. However there are ways that you can HELP the environment;
  1)take a city bus, walk, or bike rather than drive car
  2)use the 3 R%26#039;s
  3)don%26#039;t smoke
  4)turn the level on the air conditioner 1 degrees lower or not use it at all
  There are more ways,....................
• Kill the cows, lol... They fart so much it polutes the earth and causes Global Warming
  let alone the cars that polute.
  
  So by stopping it, If you eat half the cows in one go and invent hybrid, electronical, running on water cars well most likely its going to stop at least half of our problem.
• Methane gas is most definitely the number one cause of global warming. You could go vegetarian, that would help a lot. Or just eat poultry and seafood. I live in CA and PG%26amp;E has come up with a way to trap the methane gas and turn it into energy. It burns like natural gas. Which is a step in the right direction, but more needs to be done. Think about reusing, not just recycling. Recycling takes energy. If we reused more instead of just recycling we would save. Also, if you are in the market for a new car. Buy a fuel economic pre-owned car. There are a lot of pre-owned cars for sale that will give you great gas mileage. A hybrid car take 107 BTU%26#039;s to produce and a hybrid takes 155 BTU%26#039;s of energy to produce. There are a ton of used cars out there that are being junked because there is no use for them. Just don%26#039;t buy or drive and SUV!!! If it%26#039;s an option for you, walk or ride your bike when you can. My son and I take the bus when I have a doctors appointment (I%26#039;m pregnant). My family has only one car and we make it work. We minimize our driving. We try to buy local organic produce. We recycle what we cannot reuse. We use reusable shopping bags. And I skip on anything from the restaurants, shops, grocery stores, etc. that I feel will harm the environment. Like those green things for your coffee at Starbucks to stick in the drink hole. What a waste of plastic.
• Homes and buildings are huge contributors - find ways to lower your gas and electricity consumption by turning things off.
  
  Recycle rather than throw into a landfill.
  
  If you remodel, look to reuse or use salvage where you can and that will help to minimize embodied energy used to produce building materials.
  
  Look around your house for ways to be green - that%26#039;s a great place to start.
• If there is global warming, it is caused by the sun (likewise, global cooling). Can%26#039;t be stopped, started, altered or delayed by any means available to man. Drive your car all you want (if you can afford gas).
• You cant, we cant, nobody can. We can destroy every factory, car, power plant, etc. and it doesnt matter. One good volcano eruption or a slight shift in our planitary axis and we are screwed.
• the electric car. solar power. wind power.
  
  those are only a few. but they are changes that will actually be really easy to change to.
• Install a dimmer switch on the Sun (the Sun is responsible for all of our warming trends: Past, Present, and Future).
