Scientists reveal landmark report

Scientists reveal a landmark report on global warming which states hotter temperatures likely for the next several centuries. See this interactive feature for some more information about the research scientists are doing.

Landmark report, part two

What can we do?

After much deliberation of this subject, the answer seems quite simple!

STOP CONSUMING RESOURCES THAT CAUSE GLOBAL WARMING!

There are 6 BILLION people on this planet! Stop having more than one child! China already has a law forbidding a family from having more than one child! Maybe the rest of the planet should adopt this policy!

There are 1.5 BILLION cows on this planet!

To put it bluntly, cows fart! People fart, too! A fart is methane gas! Imagine 1.5 BILLION cows and 6 BILLION people emitting methane gas! That is a LOT of methane gas!

METHANE GAS CAUSES GLOBAL WARMING 20 TIMES MORE THAN AN EQUIVALENT AMOUNT OF CARBON DIOXIDE!

Here are some mostly simple things we all can do to help stop global warming!

  • Educate yourself on the causes of global warming!!!
  • Stop eating cows and other animals that emit methane gas! If you don't eat these types of animals, there is less demand for them which equates to less methane emissions! You don't have to become a vegetarian. Think about it, there are all kinds of things you can eat besides these types of animals!!!
  • Stop having more than one child! Having fewer people on the planet will cause less consumption of resources which cause global warming!
  • Don't drive your car unless you absolutely must.
  • Ride public transportation if you need to travel.
  • Use energy efficient light bulbs!
  • Turn off lights and appliances when you don't need them!
    • When you leave a room, turn off the light!!!
  • Turn your heat down in the winter! You can wear warmer clothing or do a physical activity which will keep you warm!
  • Install solar panels on your house.
  • Remind the people with whom you interact to do the same things!!!
  • Make sure you teach these concepts to your children!!!

You should also write your congressperson and demand that they support legislation which dramatically reduces consumption of resources which cause global warming!

These are just some examples of things that you can do.

Everyone on this planet needs to seriously think about how their daily activities contribute to global warming! Remember, it is your responsibility to help stop global warming just as much as it is anyone else's!

Here is something to think about:

Global warming is like having a small fire in your house. The sooner you put out the fire, the less damage it will do! If you do nothing and just watch it burn, pretty soon you won't have a house in which to live!!!

Almost everything mentioned here is relatively simple to do! However, if you do nothing, be prepared for the consequences!!!

Are you willing to do nothing while having your children suffer from your indifference and ignorance???

Public speakers

James Hansen gave a short lecture about global warming on Monday, February 26, 2007 which was shown on C-SPAN. It was very noticeable how he was always trying to choose his words very carefully, especially during the question and answer period. He said he may testify before congress as a private citizen so he may speak freely! From the way he was talking, it sounds like he is either going to be fired for what he was saying, or he is going to quit his job just so he can speak freely!

The Science of discrediting the science

Bush has been a busy boy, attempting to discredit the science behind global warming.

Can anyone say Big Oil?

Green energy

Green Transportation

There is a great four part series on the Discovery channel called Future Car which covers these topics fairly well.

Concept

Create a vehicle that does not use fossil fuels.

Fuel

The price of gasoline is skyrocketing into the stratosphere.

There have been many developments in vehicle propulsion.

Aerodynamics

Notice how a Formula One car has a ground hugging, aerodynamic design.

Wheels

Innovations in wheel design have introduced us to the tweel.

A note from Speedracer, the creator of this wiki:

First, a quick answer to your question: YES! You can edit this page without asking permission!

Why did I create this Wiki?

In my opinion, it seems that people are to busy watching American Idol or worrying about who is going to get Anna Nicole's baby than paying attention to what will directly effect them. If they don't open their eyes soon, they may never be able to stop the runaway train heading down the dead end track.

My analogy: Someone is walking down the sidewalk so preoccupied with something on the other side of the street that they fail to see the sign post they are about to run into. I'm just trying to say, "Lookout!" and direct their attention to something more important.

Unfortunately, people are so distracted with what is going on in their own micro-environments, they fail to see the big picture of what is going on in the real world in which they live.

I created the Your-Rights.com website because I wanted to share the information that I found while web surfing, listening to Air America, etc. with other people. I feel it is important for other people to have a greater chance to see what I have seen.

After operating Your-Rights.com for over four years, I was getting a bit burned out from blogging about all the depressing current events. I decided to give others the opportunity to share their knowledge and concerns through the medium of a wiki.

I feel a wiki is a great way to share information for several reasons. It is fairly easy to use the wiki software. Unlike most other web interfaces, a wiki allows anyone to update existing articles or create completely new ones. This allows anyone to fix typo's, remove false information and add additional information.

By viewing the popular pages list, you will notice that people do actually view the pages within this wiki. Unfortunately, besides me there has only been one other person contribute anything besides SPAM content.

Here is something that I feel deserves more attention, especially since people are starting to be more aware of the issues involved with global warming.

The article you will see by following this link is a short paragraph which has a lot of links. If you view each of the links, you will learn a lot about this issue, which definitely needs some real public debate.

There is a lot of very important information within that article. If you take the time to review the provided links, you will probably be appalled by the inner workings of the War on drugs!

The above link goes to my other website, which I designed. It may not be the best website that you have ever seen. Some people have even told me, "That site sucks!" Aesthetics are nice to look at, but the information is what is most important. As you most likely already know, mean people will drive you into the ground if you let them. And besides, if you don't like the way it looks, why not offer to help make it look better?

I try my best to get people to open their eyes. Hopefully I am creating a positive effect and making a difference by helping people start thinking about the world in which they live instead of the world of their favorite celebrities.

If you know of something which you feel would be beneficial for others to know about, please feel free to go ahead and add your information. Please don't be afraid that you might mess everything up or something similar. Anything that you could possibly break is very easy to fix!

If you can't figure something out, feel free to ask me for help! I have contact information on my user page.
