STOP GLOBAL WARMING
The inconvenient truth.
YOU ARE A CARBON DIOXIDE CONTRIBUTOR. STOP BREATHING. GO KILL YOURSELF. SAVE THE EARTH.
Ok, that was rubbish. But hey, the first and last sentences are true. Even after u die, your body will be cremated, you'll still contribute CO2. Whatever the case, dead or alive, you are a CO2 contributor.
BUT,
You can do your part. http://www.climatecrisis.net/takeaction/

Alright, how bout just read thru these ten little things which you can do to make a huge difference.
1. CHANGE A LIGHT- replacing one regular light bulb with a compact fluorescent light bulb will save 150 pounds of carbon dioxide a year.
2. DRIVE LESS- walk, bike, carpool or take mass transit more often. You'll save one pound of carbon dioxide for every mile you don't drive!
3. RECYCLE MORE- you can save 2400 pounds of CO2 per year by recycling just half of your household waste.
4. CHECK YOUR TIRES-keeping your tires inflated properly can improve gas mileage by more than 3%.
5. USE LESS HOT WATER-it takes a lot of energy to heat water.Use less hot water by installing a low flow showerhead (350 pounds of CO2 saved per year) and washing your clothes in cold or warm water (500 pounds saved per year).
6. AVOID PRODUCTS WITH A LOT OF PACKAGING-you can save 1200 pounds of CO2 if you cut down your garbage by 10%.
7. ADJUST YOUR THERMOSTAT-moving your thermostat just 2 degrees in winter and 2 degrees in summer can save about 2000 pounds of CO2 a year with this simple adjustment.
8. PLANT A TREE-a single tree will absorb one ton of CO2 over its lifetime.
9. TURN OFF ELECTRONIC DEVICES-simply turning off you TV, DVD player, stereo, and computer when you're not using them. It will save you thousands of pounds of CO2 a year.
10. SPREAD THE WORD. SAVE THE EARTH.
