Top 13 Ways You Can Reduce Global Warming

Save Energy, Money and the Environment

According to the Natural Resources Defense Council, the two biggest offenders in the global warming problem are cars an d power plants. In particular, coal-burning power plants are the largest U.S. source of carbon dioxide pollution, producing 2.3 billion tons every year. Cars, the second largest source, are responsible for generating almost 1.1 billion tons of carbon dioxide emissions a year. Carbon dioxide and other air pollution collect in the atmosphere and trap heat from the sun causing the planet to warm up.

The good news is we don't have to wait for technical solutions to reduce the impact of these big offenders. Solutions exist now to allow us to reduce our dependence on power plants and use cleaner transportation options. We just have to start using them. Here are 12 simple ways to do your part to start making a difference now. By saving energy, you

Actually, all these and more are already on posters in India. In newspapers,emails,SMS,MMS and all other forms of communication people get to know all these. But I have seen a very few people actually trying to follow them, and thats actually very sad. In this case I appreciate people from Europian countries trying to make a difference. China is the biggest emitter for the green house gases, but now it has started taking some serious measures against it, so is India.I have an idea, maybe not very good.. but in .nfo or "about" for a patch or keygen can include a message like this too, maybe a small little line wont make much of a diff

That would be good..

.nfo with a little message.. never thought of that..

NASA scientists recently (and finally) found the evidence that once on Mars there was a water (now it's an ice , actually it's a discussion when water cooled down , it could be billions of years ago) , but water is a necessary ingredient of life , the 2nd the same important ingredient is organic material , if u find it , then maybe we all could go there to Mars , it's not a fun , for many years some NASA scientists astrobiologists are making models and calculations how many years it would take to warm Mars (for that u need to get there technology u need , u can watch NASA's little animated videos about their far future plans , or fantasy , that's again discussion with very different opinions) , OK , lets say we've done it , we made Mars warm and wet , we made an atmosphere almost like on Earth (that's another the same important ingredient for life) , we can go there and live , build houses , factories , drive cars , and other stuff , again , like on Earth , pollute Mars environment with exhaust from many sources , or/and with atomic explosions , other "bad" stuff , and then we can wait for another global waming on /Mars..

These things are easy and say and i don't think it is really possible to reduce to the global warming in the near future. Also i don't think its all due to the carbon emissions they may be others cosmic/earth factors too. These warming and all other things are not new to earth. It has seen somany of them or more violent than this. I believe if there is any true global warmng then it is due to 60% human effect and the rest is contributed by earth itself.

Toxin in soil may mean no life on Mars

(CNN) -- NASA's Phoenix lander has discovered a toxic chemical in soil near Mars' north pole, dimming hopes for finding life on the Red Planet, the probe's operators said Monday

NEW UPDATE :

NASA says Mars toxin find doesn't rule out life

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - NASA scientists on Tuesday said the surprise discovery of a sometimes toxic chemical on the surface of Mars does not diminish the possibility of finding microbial life on the Red Planet and asked for patience while they study soil samples further.

i'm not very good scientist (once i studied something related with biochemistry etc.) but actually there are a lot of reasons that helped life to start here (or could help to start elsewhere , like on Mars) , a lot reasons , like right position from the Sun , the moon (pretty complex to explain) , and others , it's very hard to tell that life started only because of this or because of this , life started because of many reasons , life started in the way it looks today of the conditions that were at that time , scientists do not know does the life exists elsewhere , and if/or exists , what it looks like , maybe there are different conditions that could help life started elsewhere than there's on Earth , maybe different kinds of life , and the last , what we call a "LIFE" ?

this discussion would never stop , let it leave to scientists , they are right , they are wrong , it's not possible to understand everything , scientists still can't explane many things on Earth , lets say we talk about life , example there are no drugs from all diseases (and i doubt if there will be) , every single drug has its own side effect (there's no drug which would not have side effect) , and it's to difficult (but at the same time it's actually very simple) to explain why there's no solution for every disease , or why it's so difficult to find one , and when we talk about life elsewhere , on Mars , it's much more difficult to explain what could help life to start on other planet , it's obvious..

I think the fare for the trip to Mars will be very expensive...

(if we would start living there)

These things are easy and say and i don't think it is really possible to reduce to the global warming in the near future

It is possible if we plant trees.. :cool:
