Tip 20 Ways to Reduce Global Warming  

I agree with all those but number 7, why use a dishwasher when you can wash dishes by hand, saving electricity and water. The point I agree most with is 3, we should all individually do what we can but it is more important for governments to act. I think there should be more laws made so that new building or commercial developments can only go ahead if they include solar panels or wind turbines and other environmentally friendly features.

I do as much as I can. I've only recently came to a place that does recycling so I finally can do it and I feel so better about being able to do it too. I hated wasting all of that stuff we used and not being able to get them recycled. And don't forget to walk, bike or take public transportating any time you need to go somewhere if you can. If you can't do that, make one trip do all.

Jakarta is getting hotter every year, and sea level getting higher as the effect of global warming. and polluted is getting worse because today everyone use their own vehicle.
But most people in Jakarta still didn't have enough knowledge about climate and its related science.

Thanks for the information.

avoid using vehicles when it is totally easy to travel with other means where more people travel in the same vehicle..
this will reduce the use of fuel and hence the global warming.

Does that carbon footprint mean people in the Western World should not have any children? That was proposed by some lady in Britain. So you have to be careful of what you propose. I do believe the other things are sensible although since global warming is a natural cycle and God is in control, that God will laugh at us for doing these things to prevent global warming.
I do believe these come under the heading of being frugal, not wasting energy, and being managers of the Earth. Does mean once the earth is cooled and we in the North will have to import our fruits and melons earlier because our growing season is shorter, that you will stop doing these things to 'save' the Earth? As for some of the things, Hybrid cars are bit too expensive here in Canada for the average buyer, so we will wait until they come down in price. The same for alternative fuel, it will have to go down in price so the average person can buy the new furnace,etc.
And in Manitoba, Saskatchewan, and Alberta, we still get snow in winter here and it does get down to minus 40 degrees, so I guess while you people in India, the Phillipines, etc. had global warming, it sort of missed us.

great post, most of it is really plain common sense but i guess often times common sense is not really common. i am not really a global warming watcher, but i do all you mention (except #13) but we are talking about it specially now that the gas price is going way too high.
it is not mentioned there but we saved so much water bill by not flushing the toilet as often as we want it to be and we have the water saver one. no we're not trying to live a nasty life but if you have a person in your house who uses bathroom to pee like 30x a day i guess it is not wise to flush it that much specially if you are just 2 person in the home, i feel there is no need to do that much, for me that is way too much of a waste.
i also try to reuse the water i use to wash vegetables by watering our house plant by that water.
anyway, i think there are millions way to help our world, it's just that sometimes we are TOO LAZY to do it coz we are so use of convenience in our life.
takecare!

Thank you for the best response.
