GLOBAL WARMING

What is CLIMATE CHANGE?
In the human history, our world has had 275 parts per million of carbon dioxide in its atmosphere. Scientist believe that we should not go over 350 parts per million of carbon dioxide in our atmosphere. However, we now have 392 parts per million of carbon dioxide in our atmosphere. 350.org does a great job explaining.

This is all due to human practices. In other words, it's all OUR fault. THIS has led us to global warming.

THIS 391 parts per million of carbon dioxide in our atmosphere says to us that we have a high concentration of greenhouse gases trapped in our atmosphere. THIS means that heat from the sun is coming into our planet, but it is not coming out. You remember how when you were a kid and you would put a magnifying glass over a ant and watch them suffer and burn? Well, yeh, payback is a b@&$%. So essentially, we are becoming that ant.

What pollution?
ENERGY! Energy we use from oil and coal. Power plants. Cars. The world has become so "industrialized" that our every move contributes pollution to our dying planet.

People have gotten along for centuries, decades, millenniums without causing so much harm to this planet. Ancient people were much more in touch with this planet. We Others on the other hand, could care less.


How can we make this better?
Stop using dirty energy such as coal and oil. Use alternative/natural energy from the sun, wind and water.
Why don't we? BIG OIL = BIG MONEY. The oil/coal companies have a monopoly on this energy business. They know that we need energy to keep our industrialized world running. They are not willing to switch over to solar or wind energy. I'm not a business major but i don't know how you could profit off of the sun and the wind. They probably have a hard time figuring that out also. So they are not ready to take that step. It's the 2000's now. We need to come out of the 1900's.

DAMN YOU ROCKERFELLER


What can you do for now?

• Cut off all electricity when you leave a room.
• Put your car in neutral when you are stalling, like at a red light.
• Turn your car off completely if you know you'll be waiting more than 2 minutes.
• Unplug unused appliances. (Energy is still being used even if the the appliance isn't because the plug still collects energy from the wall source.)
• CONSERVE! less is more.
