How to tackle global warming.

Read what people say, not what you think they say. I mean, many of your posts show such a startling misunderstanding of what people are saying it's scary.

You are remarkable as an example of someone who can add two plus two and come up with five. As the saying goes, this is never true, even for very large values of two.

I am not the only one that seems to have to remind you of what they said and how your reply showed you don't read.

1) You said you'd consider buying an energy saving bulb if it made economic sense.

2) I said, basically, anything that stops (and here I used two possible scenarios that cleverer people than you are I say will happen) would also m ...[text shortened]... wn more companies than you have brain cells. Sorry bad example! than you are likely to.

However, anything that helps stop the Northern hemisphere plunging into an ice age or half the land mass of Europe disappearing under the sea probably makes economic sense too.

1)Never disputed that one
2)You never said they would happen, you implied they may happen, I mentioned this in my post if you remember
3)I sure don't understand the theories you put forward, they're unintelligible, (at this juncture it is best to point out that your assertion that I insist global warming is "not true" is false, I don't believe its h ...[text shortened]... for examples of some of the companies you own so I can patronise them?
Thanks in advance

Nothing quite as disappointing as a tall dike.

Tip 2 - Cavity wall insulation.

Up to 33% of all your heat in your home is lost through the walls; so insulating the walls of your home is an excellent way of saving you money and energy you would otherwise use.

By insulating your walls you can save yourself around £130 - £165 each year on fuel bills; as you can imagine this will add up to a lot money over several years.

There are many other benefits other than saving you money also:

1. It creates an even temperature in your home - as heat won't be lost from certain rooms faster than others.

2. It obviously reduced the amount of CO2 emissions you pump into the atmosphere.

2. It helps prevent condensation on walls and ceilings - this will have something to do with the way heat is transferred; as the walls and the gaps between them will have different temperature from the rooms in your house.

This one's a biggy:
3. It will reduce the amount of heat building up inside your home during summer hot spells, as well helping to keep the warmth better in your home during the colder winters.

This will become increasingly more important in the upcoming years: as Global warming will cause more seasonal fluctuations, meaning more heat waves during summer and cold waves during winter.

Older people and people with young children should definitely become more wary of this. People with certain illnesses like heart and lung diseases need to be ready also because they are also at a higher risk of dying in a heat wave as well.

Europe is not well prepared to cope with these unexpected heat and cold waves at all, as was demonstrated in 2003, when in western Europe alone, 35 000 excess deaths were reported as attributable to this 2003 heat-wave.
So keep this in mind when you consider how badly heat waves will become in the future.
Hell, I live in the north of England and I find these heat waves very uncomfortable, I really can't imagine what it is like if you live somewhere like in the Mediterranean.

More on the financial/installation side of this.

Installation of this insulation will cost around £260, so it will pay for itself after 2 years, and after that you will start saving a lot of money.

Installation will take between two to three hours for a three bedroom semi-detached house; and it is my understanding that they inject the insulation into the walls from the outside, so no mess will be made inside your home.

Take a look into this, see if your house can get cavity wall insulation, if it can I suggest you get it; it will save you money as well as benefit in the other ways I mentioned.

It not only helps the environment, it makes economic sense.

I'll not go through these again because even these answers show you haven't understood even your own posts.

I don't do much about global warming because I don't happen to believe strongly enough that it not a naturally occurring event though am attempting to keep an open mind about that. I did buy my first two energy saving bulbs yesterday as a result of ...[text shortened]... nti business though feel business has a responsibility to the community from which it grows.

Just curios… do we know that global warming is really happing because of us??? I know that we had a global cool in the 70s and now we say global warming is happing. I don’t know about you guys but sciences needs to improve first before I believe this is really happing

[b]Your ignorance is showing; there has been numerous computer models and large amounts of evidence that have shown that Global warming is happening and that is largely cause by human industrial activity (e.g. CO2 and methane emissions).

Where are the computer models then... and if your only evidence is a economic report then about global warming that is not the evidence to global warming... I just want proof of something before I believe. and an economic report is not one...

Okay, that's understandable; I'll try to find a link or something within a few days and post it here.
Of course if anyone can post something better and sooner...
