It's funny that the things that can help save the environment: walking, recycling, etc. have ways of also saving you money and other benefits too, like walking saves you money and gets you in shape, but it takes more effort and if there is one thing that is a truth about Americans it's that we are lazy people for the most part so we don't do it.
It frustrates me. Whenever I can (unless the weather is horrible or I'm running late) I ride my bike to work or to stores or wherever I'm heading. It saves me money, helps me keep trim, and helps cut back on my carbon footprint. The only negative is that I have to plan my days out in advance (which isn't that bad) and that it takes a little bit more time than driving.
O.K., haha you guys are probably glad I found this post! (sarcasm) I am a HUGE environment freak! I am a go-green go-getter! Global warming is real people. As real as you are. And even if you think that it isnt gonna kill you because you will be gone by then (which might not happen) thats no way to think! Just because it wont kill YOU doesn't mean you dont need to worry. Our earth, our very own "home sweet home," is becoming destroyed because of pollution and much more! If global warming hasn't killed us by the time you are gone, dont you want the earth to be clean for the next generations? I mean, don't you care about your (maybe,) future children, grandchildren, great grandchildren... and on and on. Dont you want them to have a happy life like you did on the CLEAN earth, their actual home? Nothing is going to work if we let the earth get polluted like it is! And what about the animals? God gave them life just like he did too us, and they are important too! Who cares if they aren't advanced, or smart, or human?!? They matter just as much as we do, because they have life too! And the earth is their home too, and it is not their fault for the problems on it. Are we going to let the animals take the blame for the mess we caused? NO! We are going to do something! The earth is their home, so they wanna help too, and they want it to be clean, so we should too! GO GREEN OR GO HOME! ( :
Global Warming is as real as the Lockness Monster. And even if it was real, will we be alive to go through the "horrible" ways. NO! We will be dead, and are great-great-great-great-great-grandkids might go throught it, but not us.
You are very wrong. There is actual proof backing up global warming unlike the Loch Ness Monster. We are the people who need to slow it down. We will be alive for some of the horrible ways. I guarantee we will see some hurricanes way worse than Katrina. Also, it is more like your great grandchildren that will see it.
i dont beleive in global warming because i think that it is so gradual that by the time it is dangerous the next ice age will counter act it
i also believe this, also its not global warming, its warming in the poles, and only there, its been a very cold season in oregon, a total of 9 months for winter

And now there are some upcoming abnormally warm temperatures (in Portland at least). One characteristic predicted by the same climate models that predict global warming is greater amounts of extreme weather changes (i.e. higher highs and lower lows) which is generally bad for a regions crop output as well as other things (such as infrastructure maintenance).
Well, there are big important people that keep going to US, the little people, to turn things around, when there are so many people in the government that don't care. Can anyone even REMEMBER when they heard about the first hydrogen cars? Yeah, nobody ever gets around to these things.
