Hey everybody readin! whats up? this is officially our first post eva! and if you haven't picked up on it by now, were tryin to save the world. From what exactly, you ask? Why, global warming of course!! Before you exit out of this page because you either think this is stupid, or assume that you know everything about this issue, realize that you are choosing to ignore the problem that might soon end the world as we know it. Sounds pretty important now doesn't it? Right now, you all probably have many questions, such as why exactly is this issue so big? or what can we possibly do to stop it? But trust me I'm not over exaggerating, and there is something we can do to help.
This is a pic of a diagram I found online. It does an amazing job of describing exactly what global warming is doing to kill our planet. just go ahead and click on the link because I couldn't get the pic to go down here where I wanted it lol. http://www.effectofglobalwarming.com/images/What-is-global-warming-img.jpg
Now the answer we've all been waiting for... what can we do to help?
I'll list a few of the most important and easiest ways you can help.
1. Take shorter showers. (did you realize that your showers are 2/3 or your entire water heating cost??? By cutting down on your time in the shower you'll be saving approximately 350 lbs. of carbon dioxide a year! imagine how much your helping the earth! Not to mention the 99 extra dollars you'll have during the end of the year to spend.)
2. Turn off the lights when you leave a room. (You Will be saving approximately 1000 lbs. of carbon dioxide and around 256 dollars a year!)
3. Spread the word- just like me. Make a blog or even a website, leave a comment, and give me the link. If I like it, I'll post even post it on here and help you get the word out. :]
4. Don't idle your car. If car idles for more than 10 seconds, it is equivalent to the fuel required to restart it. So instead of idling your car when your dropping your kids off to school, or picking up your friends for a night out, kill the engine.
5. Instead of watching your pretty screen saver when your computer is idle, shut it down to sleep mode. Not only does it help to save power, but if everyone gets to doing this, it's gonna save the world.
6. Recycle and GO GREEN.
Good luck and make sure you post all of your comments here. And let us know about what you did to save the world. and don't forget, we wanna hear about your blogs/websites!
