Reply with quote Get politicians to:

36. force companies to recycle (not currently a requirement!)
37. force companies to switch off lights and inactive workstations off at the end of the day
38. raise the standard for power efficiency of electronics and possibly engines every year.

... obviously this will never happen because it is not taxable Evil or Very Mad

So many things that are not true or contain half truths

Landfills will slowly poison the land and often generate methane which is a worst greenhouse gas than carbon dioxide

what we percieve as clean could actually be a sterile enviroment which would not help the global enviroment

with modern technology burning rubbish/trash could be more helpful in preserving a living enviroment, this could be used to generate heat and power and air scrubbers could remove harmful gases
Reply with quote Well if we knockout the cars we definetly on the right path. Big companies are not in a hurry to make cleaner cars, il rather place my bet on small groups like (www.automotogreen.com) to create the technology and force the big companies to react. Its been years and nothing is realy out there.

A burning cigarette releases 5W of power, apparently. I thought it would be lower than that.

Assuming a standard 100W incandescent bulb gives off around 30W as useful light and 70W as heat, then 15 fags = 1 lightbulb in terms of waste power?


Interesting in terms of power, but I wonder how much combined crap is given off into the atmosphere on an hourly basis, say compared to the use of vehicles. I'm sure that our vehicles are a much bigger offender.

that is just looking at the end user there are a few other thing you can add to the equation, from start to finish
    usable farmland is wasted to grow it
    processing the harvest
    packaging
    transport of goods

all of this is taking resources to give people a dubious pleasure

the farmland could be used for biofuels, food, or returned to the wild to act as a carbon sink all of which would be more useful

on second thoughts though make chain smoking compulsary

it will hasten the deaths of lots of people and lower the fertility rate

have you any suggestions for this one Laughing

using the gaia hypothesis, nature will try to do this for use, if you are right
ie new diseases ect though nature might need a hand

10. if we cannot do the above we might need more readily availble birth control
