Taking Action To Reduce Your Carbon Footprint

Status: 
In Progress
Description: 

The future is not somewhere we are going. It is something we are creating. Every day we do things that make some futures more probable and others less likely.

Global warming already disrupts millions of lives daily in the forms of destructive weather patterns and loss of habitat. What is already happening is only the tip of the melting iceberg, for it is our children and grandchildren who may suffer most from the effects of global warming. Hundreds of millions of people may be exposed to famine, water shortages, extreme weather conditions and a 20 - 30% loss of animal and plant species if we do not reduce the rate of global warming and reduce GHG emissions.On the other hand, having warmer winters means longer growing seasons in temperate and subarctic climes, sometimes allowing an additional crop to be planted and harvested each year, or simply making the existing crops more productive. This article outlines some ways that you can act to help prevent the Earth from warming further. While humankind has the ability to destroy the planet, we can also help protect and sustain it.

Reducing your carbon and greenhouse gas emissions will not only make your personal living space more sustainable but it will also save you money in both the short- and long-term. Global warming is occurring more rapidly than it was originally expected to. Only forty years ago, the big worry was global cooling. Even if you remain a cynic, however, and disagree with the consensus of scientists, you will benefit from reduced pollution, a more healthful lifestyle and increased savings from enacting these simple activities that will not reduce the quality of your life.

It's all the little things... Nothing makes me feel better than giving my hard earned money to local farmers and/or organizations, buying green items that help our beautiful planet, and eating healthier foods so that I am treating myself well... Try it, I bet you'll feel great about it too!!! Melanie =)

Biking Wherever I Go Within The City

Description: 

Starting September 5th, 2010 I will be using my bicylce to go all places within the city I live !!! This includes going to the Bank, biking to work, biking to school  etc. I will only be using a vehicle if their will be more than 3 people traveling with us, this will reduce CO2 emissions, while making myself healthier !!! As I found out tonight, it's also a great way to relax after a long shift at work or school !!

I'm hoping I can start a weekly cycling group in order to participate in the 10/10/10 Global Work Party with 350.org I want to bike for 350km between September 10th & October 10th !!!! Let's see if I can do it, I will be concluded my 350k bike with a get together picking up trash in a local park & cleaning up the river bank!!!!

 

See You Soon,

Jason
