Individuals actions


Some ways that my household and me could do to prevent global warming are washing our clothes in cold or warm water.Also we could adjust the thermostat so that it isn't too hot or too cold.We could clean the filters or replace them to save 15% of the energy used.Another way to help prevent global warming is by putting caulk and weathership around the doors and windows so it is insulated better.Decrease the burning of fossil fuels.For example, we could walk, carpool, or bike instead of using our own car all the time. people in my neighboorhood can use less electricry, watch less tv, play less vedio games, carpool to and from school and work, use less of the airconditioner people can open the doors to their homes and that is what my neighboorhood can do to decrease global warming. Finally, i think if cooperate with each other to at least reduce the effcets of global warming then we could dream about clean invironment in the future,

How can we leave our doors open in this day and age? When I was a child, (a half century ago) we never locked the doors and we slept with the windows wide open in nice weather. The only intruders we feared were flies and mosquitos. Nowadays, in many places, it is just not safe to do that.

Also, in the UAE, modern buildings depend on electicity for cooling. I can't imagine living here without a/c! Any suggestions?

A possible step for the car problem, though, might be to organize college buses. If there were a convenient bus to the college, would you ride it regularly? I know I would!
