"Some Say the World Will End in Fire, Some Say in Ice" (Robert Frost) - Jack H. Schick
Mankind has been lucky, so far. Over the past few million years the surface temperature of the planet has been much colder than it has been over most of Earth's history. However, the most recent, Pliocene-Quaternary Ice Age, has been relatively short, and, compared to previous cold spells, ice... Submitted 111 days 22 hours ago.

Bio-cremation: Dip, Strip, Flush and Grind - Jack H. Schick
I must have been about ten when my mom told me that my grandfather was going to be cremated when he died. It up set me. I assumed people were always buried.

Tire, Tire burning Bright - Dianne Lehmann
We've all heard about piles of used automobile tires catching fire. We've seen the videos. Maybe some of us have witnessed it first hand and smelled the stench.

I Am That Eco-Friendly - Grace O'Malley
I do not mind being eco-friendly. I was raised that way. We recycle, are careful on what kinds of materials we buy, stay away from plastics as much as possible, drive relatively fuel efficient vehicles, re-use instead of throw away.

Copenhagen Global Warming Conference: Why Didn't They Use Video Conferencing? - - Mogama
The credibility of the climate-change gods is on the line once again. Changing their verbiage from global warming to climate change cannot conceal whatever they are hiding.

Air Quality Permits: It Just Makes Sense. - Jack H. Schick
We have an electrical generator at the sewer plant. It’s huge, big enough to run all the equipment. It’s a very important part of our operations.

Are Space Aliens Threatening Us Because Of Our CO2 Emissions? - Joel Hendon
Although most of their feeble excuses have now been blown to smithereens, those scientists whose big monies depended upon grants for the CO2 research now have a new and more daunting “IF” in their portfolio.

We Are A Nation of Throwaways - - Grace O'Malley
Once, long ago in a time far, far away, products were built to last. It did not matter what they were. From homes, to vehicles, to furniture, to everyday items, things were made to endure.

On The Fence On Climate Change? - Jack H. Schick
Miss Cunningham said I was a bad debater. She said I got too emotional and excited. So, after those Speech Lessons in 9 th grade, I steered away from that activity.

A Personal Study into Global Warming - Nancy Daniels
No, this is not a scientific study but a study done from my memories. Memories of living in South Jersey for more than 50 years, albeit a 16-year excursion to London, Ontario and much briefer hiatuses in Washington, DC as well as New York City. Since all the debate over global warming, I have... Submitted 2 years 134 days ago.

Perhaps Global Warming Isn't As Dire As We Think - - Richard Vail
It is possible that the threat of global warming isn't nearly as dire as certain people would have us believe.

Celebrate America Recycles Day On Nov. 15 - Stephany Springer
America Recycles Day is Nov. 15. I have to admit that this day means more to me this year then it ever has in the past. At my own home this year, we have gotten a new trash service.

Greener Than Thou - - Missing Link
In walking around the neighborhood, I don't see much evidence that anyone is particularly concerned about global warming, drought conditions, or living green.

McCain's Smokey Speech Clogs the Sacramento Valley - Missing Link
I saw something the other day that made me think the end is near.

Today reading the newspaper my feeling was only reinforced. John McCain... Submitted 3 years 335 days ago.

Born With a Green Conscience - - David Tanguay
When it comes to the environment one thing, I can say and this is true. Ever since I was a child, I had a very conscientious attitude when it came to protecting the environment.

Tired of hearing the constant drone about the disaster that is global warming? Concerned about the proposed "carbon tax" that may be imposed on you for your contribution to the problem?

Global Warming – Does Mankind Have a Responsibility? - - Bill Dulude

Bigfoot on Dry Dust – Climate Change and Ecological Damage - Hannah Quinn
The recently released annual report from the Climate Living Index states that Australia has the sixth biggest footprint in terms of fossil fuel use and ecological damage.

Blame Global Warming on Nature--Earth Moving Closer to Sun - Danny Davids
We've heard so much about global warming for so long that most people either accept it as fact or ignore it as hype. Well, Al Gore is right. The Earth is indeed growing warmer.

Global Warming is a Left Wing Power Ploy . . . Or is it? - - Jeff Brown
The sky is falling . . . and it's damn hot too. According to some sources, it's a given. Global warming is real. Just ask Al Gore or watch An Inconvenient Truth .

The Toronto Sun's Contribution to the study of Global Warming - Martin Winer
Lorrie Goldstein is an associate editor at the Toronto Sun.

Energy Conservation - Who Has Practical Ideas? - Jean Horst
This last year has started to turn me green. Not a lot, but a little. For me any amount of green is significant. By green, you may have figured out, I mean the conservation-style green, not the jealousy-style green, or the I’ve-worn-this-copper-ring-too-long green. Up until this point in my life...

Save the World - - David Tanguay
“Man has been endowed with reason, with the power to create, so that he can add to what he's been given. But up to now, he hasn't been a creator, only a destroyer.
