Global Climate Changes. Are You Doing Anything?
-
Climate change. Global warming. We often hear about it on the news, the radio and read about it in the papers and magazines. But are you acting on this large scale problem? Has the media influenced your attitude and behaviour when it comes to saving the environment?

lol @HeiHao
lol why should i let the media influence me?
global warming is a socio-economic conspiracy created by Magaret Thatcher during her reign against coal miners and her support for nuclear power.

Global warming proponents call for reduced CO2 emissions and this equates to a call for cuts in the use of energy, but the energy industries have done more to benefit mankind than anything else since the invention of agriculture. And global warming proponents often call for use of ‘renewables’ to replace fossil fuels, but that is a call for a return to preindustrial society: the industrial revolution occurred when fossil fuels replaced biomass and windpower. It is physically impossible for wind and solar energies to supply the energy needs of the developed world, and the peoples of the developing world are insisting on their right to develop too.

I like people who troll about politics 24/7. Do you dream of LKY during bedtime ? Use brains thanks, global warming is very true. Dont deny human development is causing harm to nature. Global warming is just one of them.

Some global warming proponents are accepting a good financial income from the global warming scare and have become global warming propagandists to promote their interests. These include some researchers who obtain research grants and some environmental organisations who need donations. They are making a living by promoting fear of man-made global warming. Their behaviour is similar to that of the ‘snake oil salesmen’ in the nineteenth century. Snake oil salesmen sold snake oil that did not require real snakes to make it. Global warming propagandists are selling fear of man-made global warming and that does not require real man-made global warming to make it.
The success of the global warming propaganda has induced some observers to argue that a conspiracy has created the imagined risk in the public’s perception But consideration of the origins of the global warming scare deny the existence of any such conspiracy. Interests coincided and supported each other. And a coincidence of interests usually has a more powerful effect than a group of conspirators. The origins of the scare are political and have resulted in political policies that now threaten serious economic damage for the entire world.
almost everything in this world is politicaland politics is dirtyMan-made global warming has become a major international political issue. The imagined risk has become a real risk in the form of proposed government policies to inhibit CO2 emissions. The Rio Summit in 1992 proposed actions to constrain the emissions and the Kyoto Summit in December 1997 is intended to establish binding agreements that will commit nation states to the constraints. Although there are no real and potential risks of the global warming, the effects of the constraints will cause real and severe economic damage.
All industrial and economic growth requires an abundance of available energy supply. Anything that inhibits energy supplies reduces economic activity. At Kyoto, governments will be pressured to reduce CO2 emissions to far below their 1990 levels. This requires cutting fuel supplies and, therefore, economic activity. The effects would be much more severe than the ‘oil crisis’ in the 1970s because the constraint on fossil fuel usage would be greater, the increases to energy costs would be larger, and energy demand has increased since then.
Already, OECD countries (Europe, Japan and the US) have agreed in principle to adopt the ‘Berlin Mandate’ that requires them to cut their CO2 emissions to 15% below their 1990 levels by year 2010. The US Department of Energy (DoE) estimates that this would increase US domestic energy prices by between 80 and 90% and would increase the coal price to US consumers by 300%. Also, the DoE study determines that the Berlin Mandate would not reduce world-wide emissions of CO2. Energy intensive industries would be forced to move from the US to places where the emission constraints did not exist or were not enforced. This could even result in an increase to the emissions because the less-controlled places are likely to have less energy efficient industries. The DoE study goes further by saying that its findings are not specific to the US but apply to every industrialised country.
TTFU another person influenced by the media (but i don't blame you) -
Lmao, again politics. So watcha gonna do ? take over the world ? pinky and the brain ? I do it because i dont want the enviroment to be harmed. Do it with your own heart, your own conscience. So what if its a scam ? Do i start nerd rage and destroy the plants ? haha....

I did not specifically plan out what to do to save the earth. Basically, it is inside me to try to maximise the use of papers by using both writing sides before throwing them away.

those flyers they stick at our grilles are used to hold peanut shells, banana skins.......

I switch off all my lights... in the day (hehe) .. and when i sleep at night... it helps not only global warming... my wallet too.

Dun on fans. Dun on heater to bathe.
