It's too late to prevent global warming (and we can't really completely stop climate change as a whole either), but we can do things to slow it down, such as cutting CO2 emissions.

I have heard of global warming before. It seems to be becoming of more interest over the past several years. Now is the time more than ever to really conserve and think about what our planet has been through. The ozone layer for instance, depleting or depleted. If we would all just follow some simple steps we could save the world together and keep it for much longer. We shouldn't take advantage of the beautiful planet that we have.

Did you have a specific suggestion, or just a vague feeling that we should help out? Specifically, do people really do all they can to prevent global warming? I think not. How many times have you seen a person commuting alone in a big honking gas-guzzling SUV, rather than a fuel-efficient smaller car? Do you have your A/C on all day while you are at work? And what temperature is it set at? 22 or 23 perhaps. Many people do. It could be set at 24 or 25 and still be cooler than it is outside. Do you compost your vegetable peelings like I do? Do people donate their discarded clothes to second-had shops, or do they just throw them away? What about little nick-nacks that they don't want anymore? Furniture when they get new stuff? How many people actually recycle newspapers and glass and plastic bottles? Boxboard from cereal boxes? I take cloth bags with me when I got shopping. too. These are just a few things that people can do to help without going too far out of their way. If people would do these things, if might help slow the effects, but todays' society is one of convenience, not one of responsibility. We need to change the way we do things little by little and we need to teach our children that they need to be aware as well. Then maybe we can save our planet.
