What are ways to prevent Global Warming or at least slow it down?

I need ways other then recycling and changing your lightbulbs to energy efficient ones. They have to be reasonable and do-able.

Don't buy as many packaged foods, creating less waste.
Walk/Ride rather than take cars everywhere.
Use more public transport rather than taking cars.
Turn all appliances and electronics off at the powerpoint when not needed.
Replant trees, and renew our renewable resources! (such as trees, crops, and vegetation)
Cut down on animal food products.
Buying local! Local food products, especially fruit and veg. have travelled less when they are local, instead of miles on trucks! This should be done as a whole community to be most effective

Good Luck. : )

    Reducing your intake of animal products will slow it down a lot.

    Global Warming, in my opionion, is going to happen wether we like it or not. i think it is the same as the ice age and no one was around to prevent that. basically, i see it as something that is in the cycle of the earth and scientist are just looking for excuses becuase the 'have to know everything'

    Buy lots of books, and keep 'em.

    No, really. You're locking carbon deposits into a physical place, where they're not going to enter the atmosphere and contribute to global warming. Buy enough, and you can have walls lined with bookcases, which is natural insulation, which means you use less fuel to warm your house.

    I think its great you care so much.
    Its awful that hardly anyone does these days, its unfortunate that it would take something radical before more people start to take care of our planet.

    Make sure you turn off lights in rooms no one is in.

    Turn off any electronics completely, even ones with a "standby" or "sleep" mode. These modes still use electricity.

    Don't drive your car as much.

    Buy from local farm markets. Produce in stores has traveled many miles on diesel trucks. Local farms transport their own.

    Those are the ones I think of off the top of my head. I know there is more.

    We can get alternative energy by using Sun Light, it can be convert to electric power. It don't make Pollution and keep plant trees for our future.

    Recycling doesnt stop CO2 emissions, it helps pollution. And in fact causes more CO2 emission as you need extra trucks to haul it to the facility then sort and melt down the plastic. Which uses more energy than throwing it away. Changing a lightbulb will help with your electric bill and help pad the pockets of the politicians who have a huge monitary interest in "alternative energy" Want to stop global warming. Block out the sun! Or you can just wait a few years for the next cycle of climate change to occur. Which it's been doing for BILLIONS of years.

    Turn off the TV!

    1. Take a train or bus whenever possible
    2. Drive slower to get better mileage
    3. When your in the car, open the windows instead of turning on the A/C
    4. unplug appliances when you don'tuse them because some appliances use up energy when they arn't even on
    5. Plant a tree/plant. They produce oxygen and use up carbon monoxide
    6. Intead of turning up the thermometer, put on a sweater.
    7. Buy products in bulk to save packaging waste

    don't gun your engine, keep your car tuned up and tires inflated properly, drive smaller more economical cars. Maintain them properly and they will spew less emissions into the air.

    In some eastern European country, they are blaming methane gas… natural methane expulsed from the back end of their reindeer and other large bovine type creatures. What to do?

    Plant more trees, don't cut them down. Oxygen is the key.. when we remove it then we remove ozone from the atmosphere which is part of the reason for this supposed global warming.

    herd all the cows up and shoot them to cut down on methane.then herd up all the hippy tree huggers and shoot them to.just for fun. global warming is a natural occurrence. just look at the ice age.that melted and i cant recall there being lots of SUVS around then.parts of the world are heating up and parts of the world are cooling down.ant got anything to do with global warming though.its just as the planet spins on its Axis it changes direction so what was closer to the sun is now further away from the sun. its simple astronomy. the term "global warming" was thought up by the world governments so they could charge "green tax's". they make billions each year from it. no scientist has ever proved global warming is caused by humans. sorry but that is a fact.google it and find out for yourself.

    use things again and again, precycle,with light; turn them off when you dont need them,dont liter, if it aint far use a bike, dont always use hot water, use solar powered things, plant trees and plants, spend wisly, buy things that are natural,plant a garden or sumthing in your backyard,dont throw cans out,if you have a toy use it over and over or pass it down to your children, etc

    I think you could prevent global warming if we invented a giant fan or air conditioner that we could aim at the earth and cool it off!

    Build a giant air conditioner for the planet and set it to 72 degrees. That will keep everyone nice and comfortable.
