How You Can Help Stop Global Warming & Save Money

By: Jack Alexander

This blue-green planet we live on, called Earth, as
far as scientist can tell, is the only planet that can
sustain human life. The atmosphere has the perfect mix
of air that we need to breathe and that plants and
trees need for survival.
There are contradictory scientific studies and papers
on all sides of this issue. Is it a man-made problem,
meaning that each and every person’s carbon footprint
makes a difference?
In short, the planet Earth supports every species in the food chain, from the bottom to the top.
If the planet were to cool permanently, even a few
degrees, there would be vast problems created. For
instance, what if snow came earlier and stayed later
in the Midwest; production of the grains grown there
would decrease sharply, creating not only a grain
shortage, but a meat shortage as well.
How To help Save The Planet And Save Money

Scientists have been studying whether or not the
earth’s atmosphere has been in a warming trend because
of gases “stuck” in the atmosphere, which prevents the
earth’s heat from dissipating, commonly called the
greenhouse effect.
The weather would greatly change; as the atmosphere
heats, rivers and oceans evaporate. The levels of
carbon dioxide and methane in the atmosphere would
increase, making the quality of our air, the air that
you and I breathe everyday, unsafe.
Every degree that our atmosphere changes is harmful to
the life cycle of all humankind in some way. Think
Globally!
Scientists who can agree that global warming is a
problem also agree that there is no real solution. The
industrial years of pollution, natural volcanic
activity and the increased population have all led to
the gases in our atmosphere; conservation simply isn’t
enough to reverse the damage.
In short, we are leaving a real problem for future generations Is it caused by man’s output of carbon,
produced by our need for energy; or by animals output
of methane?
