Global Warming In Need of Attention

I cannot understand how some people believe that humanity is not causing global warming, unless they have been fooled by somebody they trust. Every flame we humans light adds to the heat in the earth's atmosphere. And with billions of people lighting flames every day and every minute, there is a lot of heat going into the air that would not be added to our atmosphere if we humans were not here to light those flames.

A little closer to home, most people do not realize that as they drive their car down the road, what powers that motion is the energy generated by tens of thousands of little flames in the engine. Some of the heat that is not powering your vehicle, however, comes out the tail pipe into the air and even more is radiated into the atmosphere by the radiator or by the fins an air-cooled engine.

All of the heat I speak of here is manmade, and it comes from billions of seemingly small sources, but the numbers do add up - along with all the carbon we're adding to our atmosphere.

Considering this, how can any sentient human being deny that humans are adding to global warming, even if we are not the only cause?

Smaller, more fuel-efficient cars will warm the atmosphere slower and add less carbon to our atmosphere.

Is it possible global warming is a scam?

Isn't it funny that most of the media news weather reporting on television and in print about the early warming in the Midwest and East Coast, the winter storms in the Northwest and the recent tornado in Michigan have all completely failed to mention their all-time everlasting favorite cause - global warming?

This glaring gap in continuity, in not voicing their favorite cause, leads one to believe that some of those in the media may be becoming aware of the lack of scientific evidence proving human-caused global warming even exists.

Especially since atmospheric carbon dioxide has increased to a huge 0.0380 percent of our atmosphere but doesn't correlate with any increase in temperatures since world temperatures over the past decade have been leveling off or declining.

Could it be possible that this global warming thing may be a scam?

The Eagle's Eye: 10 Ways to Prevent Global Warming

‎Global warming is an enormous problem caused by us humans and affecting us and wildlife. But, there are a many ways you can help prevent it.

1: Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle as much as you can! Doing this, you will make less piles of trash in your house.

2: Use less heat or air conditioning. If you put on the heat or air conditioner ALL the time, it will heat up the earth, causing the icebergs to melt faster.

3: Change your light bulbs to Compact Fluorescent Light (CFL) bulbs. Even if it’s more expensive than the regular bulb, this one can help you save $30 from energy consumer bills; they use 2/3 less energy, and last up to 10 times longer. Furthermore, these light bulbs make 70% LESS heat, which helps the environment A LOT. And, for a bonus, these are recyclable!

4: Use your car less. What I mean is, instead of riding in your dad’s or mom’s car all day, try NOT using your car. If you and your friend are going to the same place, why not carpool? That way, you and your friend can arrive at the same time AND you’re helping the earth. Or, if you live close to your school, you can ride your bike or walk there. This form of exercise keeps your body and the earth happy.

5: Remember the “OFF” switch. When you aren’t watching the T.V., turn it off! When you aren’t in a room, turn the light off! Most of the time, we act like the OFF switch is invisible and we become energy hogs. But, that’s okay, because you can change your ways and remember to turn things off. This will save energy and cause fewer blackouts. Also, try to turn off the water while you’re not using it. This can lower your water bill.

6: There are never too many trees. I agree with myself. Trees are very resourceful. Every year, we cut down so many trees. Why not make a difference by planting LOTS of trees! Wherever you can!

7: Use reusable items. This will produce less junk. For example, instead of using a paper bag as your lunch box, why not get a reusable lunch box? Also, instead of a plastic water bottle, how about a reusable one?

8: Buy recycled paper. Doing this will save the amount of trees we humans chop down ever year!

9: Don’t think you have all the resources in the world. Draw or write on both sides of a paper. When using a tissue, use it until there is completely no more room. Be careful about how you use your resources.

10: Encourage others. Get your friends to help you do these things. Your uncles, aunts, cousins, teachers, SOMEONE! Remember, even a something little can make a big difference.
