'Global Warming'- cannot be stopped completely. But there is nothing to worry, because we can reduce it to an acceptable level, which will not harm the peaceful and glorious lives of our future generation. To do this we simply need to modify some of our habits in our daily life. Our main goal is to reduce the emission of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere which in turn will reduce global warming.
A few tips that will emit less CO2 in the air:
1. Reduce, Reuse, Recycle:
Reducing waste by using reusable products instead of disposables will be handy to prevent global warming. Recycling paper, plastic, newspaper, aluminum cans etc. is also useful. If there is no recycling program in your community, start one today. This simple tasks will reduce 2400 pounds of CO2 annually.
2. Replace a Light Bulb:
Replacing a regular light bulb with a compact fluorescent light (CFL) will save lots of money and reduce a huge amount of greenhouse gases. From survey it has been seen that if every US family replaces one regular bulb 90 billion pounds of greenhouse gases will be eliminated from the air, the same as taking 7.5 million cars off the road.
3. Energy-efficient Products:
Energy-efficient products such as a car offering good mileage or home appliance with energy efficient models or a CFL bulb can provide in decreasing global warming. Products that come with access packaging such as molded plastic and other packaging that can't be recycled should be avoided. By reducing 10% of our household garbage we can stop 1200 pounds of CO2 from emitting in the air annually.
4. Planting Trees:
During Photosynthesis, trees absorb CO2 and give off Oxygen. In this way they reduce CO2 in the atmosphere but they are too few to fully counter the increase in CO2 in atmosphere. So start planting today.The process of Photosynthesis is quite interesting. It's simple pictorial view looks like below:
5. Usage of the 'OFF' switch:
Save electricity by turning off lights, television, video player, stereo and computer when they are not in use.
6. Drive less and Walk more:
Less driving means fewer emissions and saving of gasoline. Walk and ride bicycles for traveling a short distance. They are a great form of exercise too.
7. Eating:
Eat less meat and more organic food. This habit is good for both health and environment.
8. Encourage Others:
Encourage others to help in preventing global warming. Share information about recycling and energy conversion among your community.
Following these steps will take someone a long way towards reducing energy usage. Less energy means less fossil fuel that creates greenhouse gases and contribute global warming. So following these few steps will surely help in reducing global warming.
