How To Conserve Environment

Don Said:

How do people in India harm the environment?

We Answered:

Well, as you should know, the population of India is growing at an extreme rate, and as a result, India is using more energy than before. Its logical that the more people you have, the greater stress you put on the environment. For example, more and more vehicles are being produced each day. Also, farmland in India has been overused because farmers have to grow more food than ever to support the growing population. In addition, recycling in India has not been very successful and organized.

However. India has met with nations like the U.S. and China and have agreed to reduce their carbon emissions as soon as possible, but India is not very happy with this because they are being forced to make sacrifices which will slow down their development, and are angry that the U.S. had been polluting for decades and is now blaming others.

To help the environment, India has done several things, such as using compressed natural gas in vehicles such as rickshaws, which are responsible for the transportation of millions daily. Also, mass transportation by bus or train is relatively affordable, so people are encouraged to travel on buses and trains, instead individually in cars.

Hope I could help!

I NEED HELP! please!!! how to conserve the environment?

We Answered:

Give some startling facts about how much garbage our nation produces in a year. These websites should be very useful:

Also be sure to mention how everyone should be conscientious about what they buy. Disposable batteries; Styrofoam; food packaged in many, small, plastic containers; etc. should be avoided.

What is the biggest impact you can make on the environment?

We Answered:

Truthfully, dying is probably the thing with the biggest impact.

Short of that though (I don't think dying is numero uno on most peoples' to do lists), minimizing your use of petroleum based products as best you can is probably the highest impact thing you can do. Even small gestures like driving a little slower, turning the heat down (or up) a degree or two, avoiding drive throughs, etc. could have a huge impact if everyone did them.

Why do Enviornmentalists ignore the fundamental problem of overpopulation?

We Answered:

Since you can see that you are part of the problem, are you willing to do the right thing and euthanize yourself?
I didn't think so.
Neither does anyone else.
Does that lead us to actively hope for insanely destructive wars over increasingly scarce natural resources?
As for living on Mars, I believe it would be an ideal habitat for "seasoned citizens". Lower gravity would be a boon to those of us with arthritis and circulatory issues. It would also give the elderly a purpose; terra-forming Mars!

Check this out...at least across the pond they aren't afraid to speak of the false global warming movement:


Skeptical Documentary ‘The Great Global Warming Swindle’ Airs on British TV

With American media falling all over themselves in unbridled adoration for soon-to-be-Dr. Al Gore while they generate totally unwarranted hysteria over climate change, it seems impossible to imagine a televised documentary debunking the junk science surrounding this issue.

Yet, across the Pond, our greatest ally, Great Britain, has done exactly that.

The program is called “The Great Global Warming Swindle,” and the entire must-see video has been posted at Google (h/t Allah and Dan Riehl).

EarthTimes.org reviewed the program on Wednesday:

A documentary titled The Great Global Warming Swindle will be aired on British television by Channel 4 Thursday highlighting that claims global warming is manmade constitutes the ''biggest scam of modern times.''

The documentary dismisses outright the claims that greenhouse gas emissions caused by human activity leads to climate change. Instead, it says the Sun is the real cause for global warming.

Think this will get any attention in America? Regardless of the answer, the article continued:

Directed by film maker Martin Durkin, the documentary disputes the scientific opinion professed in the recent United Nations report, which has said humans are very likely to blame for global warming and that there is no doubt remaining that it is caused by man's use of fossil fuels.

Durkin says the argument of man-made climate change is a lie and the biggest scam of modern times. He describes global warming as "a multibillion-dollar worldwide industry, created by fanatically anti-industrial environmentalists, supported by scientists peddling scare stories to chase funding, and propped up by compliant politicians and the media."
