GO GREEN AND CURB

GLOBAL WARMING

Global warming refers to an unequivocal and continuing rise in the average temperature of Earth's climate system. Despite the oceans' dominant role in energy storage, the term "global warming" is also used to refer to increases in average temperature of the air and sea at Earth's surface. Since the early 20th century, the global air and sea surface temperature has increased about 0.8 °C , with about two-thirds of the increase occurring since 1980.

 Each of the last three decades has been successively warmer at the Earth's surface than any preceding decade since 1850.

WHAT IS GLOBAL WARMING?

GO GREEN(ENVIRONMENTALISM)Environmentalism is a broad philosophy , ideology and social movement regarding concerns for environmental protection and improvement of the health of the environment, particularly as the measure for this health seeks to incorporate the concerns of non-human elements. Environmentalism advocates the preservation, restoration and/or improvement of the natural environment, and may be referred to as a movement to control pollution or protect plant and animal diversity.

SO, WHY WE NEED TO GO GREEN??

EFFECTS OF GLOBAL WARMING

The effects of global warming are the ecological and social changes caused (directly or indirectly) by human emissions of greenhouse gases. There is a scientific consensus that climate change is occurring, and that human activities are the primary driver.

HOW CAN WE STOP IT?

GO GREEN!!

Recycling a ton of “waste” has twice the economic impact of burying it in the ground. In addition, recycling one additional ton of waste will pay $101 more in salaries and wages, produce

$275 more in goods and services, and generate $135 more in sales than

disposing of it in a landfill.

RECYCLE

Reducing the amount that we consume, and shifting our consumption to well-designed products and services, is the first step. Finding constructive uses for “waste” materials is next. And tossing it in the blue bin (garbage bin) is last. Through a balance of these three principals you can easily see your landfill-destined waste dwindle fast.

THE THREE “R”

REDUCE, REUSE, RECYCLE

GREENING WATER USAGE1. No drips – A dripping faucet can waste20 gallons of water a day.2. New fixtures can improve water effectiveness.3. Cultivate good water habits.4. Rainwater harvesting – Rainwater can be used like regular water on your tap!5. Reuse water, for example greywater can be used for watering plants.6.Beaware!– Report broken pipes, open hydrants, and excessive waste.7. Take a shower instead of a bath. Bath will cost four times more energy.

GREENING ELECTRICITY

1. Cut down the lost of energyto minimum.

2. Reduce your use. Replace your light bulbs with compact fluorescent bulbs (CFLs) or LEDs. Turn off when they’re not needed.

3. Installing an home alternative energy system. A solar electric system can provide all the energy.

4. Most energy consumed in home is in heating and cooling. Keep your house cool with natural ventilation. Blocking sunlight can help lower your cooling load. Plant a tree, it will absorb a ton of CO2 over its lifetime. Shade provided by trees can also reduce your A/C bill by 10 to 15%.

5. plug-in devises are the second biggest users of energy in your abode. When looking for new appliances, seek out the most energy-efficient models. Also look for Energy Star rated products.

CONCLUSIONwe realize that our earth is already seriously ill. We can’t just stand here and do nothing but hurt it more. We must take immediate, effective action to save our earth. In order to save our beautiful and peaceful earth, we need to obtain more knowledge so that we can use it in the effective way. This world is not ours. This world is owned by the animals and plant, they came first, after hem only we came . So we don’t have any right to destroy this planet.
