#609 How To Stop Global Warming

Here are 10 ideas, they're not necessarily the most important things to do and they're not in any special order.
What do you think of these ideas? Which ones do you agree are worth doing? All of them? Some of them? Which ones? Why? Which ones do you already do?

Feel free to make a video with your own ten ideas and post it as a response.

I think this is a good topic for an ESL class. Introduce a simple list like this and discuss it. Have students make a new list etc.

Here are some more ideas:

Oh and I should have included this one: Don't idle! So many people do this in Japan. Drives me nuts.

[calvin1207]

these ideas might help slow down the process of global warming... but regarding the issue on stopping... that's a different case

[thedailyenglishshow]

Yes, I think you're right. A silly title really ...

[proffmongo]

The important thing for humans to do is stop over populating.

Women need to have only one child until our population declines to about 100 million. Then there will be no starvation, oil shorages, energy shortages and there will be less war. Cheers!

[thedailyenglishshow]

Even if there were only 100 million people in the world, I think there would still be starvation. 1 million of the greediest people would hog all the resources and manipulate all the other people into fighting each other ...

If you drink from the tap around these parts theres a good chance youl be pooping all day.

[thedailyenglishshow]

That's too bad. I'm lucky enough to have clean and tasty water flowing from the taps - unlike in many parts of the world :(

[IIBuGzeeYY]

I didn't know you could stop something that doesn't exist.

ONE THING ILL NEVER DO

hitchhike.

And you probably shouldnt give people the idea that hitchhiking is good :P

Because the pedos will kill us all!

[spudgunjoe]

these options are absurd, i mean hitchhike, can somebody remind me what century were in

[LightmanTruth]

What global warming? There hasn't been any for about 15 years. Do your research instead of believing the media crap.

Global warming is a scam.

[calvin1207]

Thx for the reply, but i do agree with you that its more than necessary for people to start caring about earth.

We just did a reflection paper on "An Inconvenient Truth" for our environmental science class. I've watched the film myself for more than 3 times, and it still pains me everytime to see how people lack the consciousness on such serious matters

[stone1home]

Every little bit helps, both on the consumption and recycling ends of the cycle.

[uni000ver000sal]

Just imagine everyone had good water! Some have more than enough to fill a private swimming pool other's would be lucky to have a drop to drink!

Where is the EQUALITY?

[uni000ver000sal]

One child per women, don't know about that!

What would women be doing for the rest of the time! I suppose there is always nagging and thanks God for viagara!

FACT: The world has enough resources for 12 billion people and not just 6.4billion as it currently stands.

The issue is inequality and NOT quantity!
