Green Friendly

Posted by Rolf Joho on November 27th, 2009 filed in Global Warming

How can we define a green-friendly lifestyle? People often tend to associate green-friendly products will a lack of individual comfort, and the rawest and most striking example is the ultra brands of toilet paper that feel so soft on the bum. Well, you may not care or know that the fiber used for such products comes from virgin wood fiber taken from tree pulp. Next time when you consider yourself a green-friendly person, be more critical with your daily habits and see whether you really live up to your standards or simply make superficial claims of environmental concern.

The food you eat tells a lot about how green-friendly you are. Lots of people have started using organic food because of health problems or out of concern for the environment. A vegetables garden will produce very nice food that can be kept 100% pesticide free. And here we have an inexpensive way of covering the need for beans, peas, tomatoes, carrots or peppers. If you don’t have the possibility to grow the vegetables yourself, you can buy from local green-friendly farms.

Then, to give some further green-friendly lifestyle examples we come to the importance of outdoor activities. Consider how much time you or your children spend in front of the TV or computer screen. The choice of the leisure activities should be from those that require spending time outside. Walking or playing outside in a natural setting, doing sports, going hiking, cycling or climbing are just a few examples of how you can develop a green-friendly lifestyle for the entire family. Fewer video game consoles would sell every year, if more parents thought like that.

A green-friendly life is defined by several other elements. From the effort to recycle and reuse to the very building of a house according to sustainable criteria, there is so much one can do to stay in harmony with the environment. We have got so used to our comfort, to the huge number of readymade items that serve us every day that we not even think where all our litter goes once we dump it in the bin or what happens to the waste water full of household residues. We forget that the very fish we have for dinner comes from a dirty ocean and that it could carry the germs and toxins that we fed it in the first place.

Climate of Corruption: Politics and Power Behind The Global Warming HoaxForeword written by S. Fred Singer, former director of the U.S. Weather Satellite Service and coauthor of Unstoppable Global Warming.

Melting glaciers, suffering polar bears, rising oceans- these are just a few of the climate change crisis myths debunked by noted aerospace expert Larry Bell in this explosive new book. With meticulous research, Bell deflates these and other climate misconceptions with perceptive analysis, humor, and the most recent scientific data. Written for the laymen, yet in-depth enough for the specialist, this book digs deep into the natural and political aspects of the climate change debate, answering fundamental questions that reveal the all-too-human origins of "scientific" inquiry. Why and how are some of the world s most prestigious scientific institutions cashing in on the debate? Who stand to benefit most by promoting public climate change alarmism? What true political and financial purposes are served by the vilification of carbon dioxide? How do climate deceptions promote grossly exaggerated claims for non-fossil alternative energy capacities and advance blatant global wealth redistribution goals? With its devastating portrayal of scientific and government establishments run amok, this book is an invaluable addition to the tremendously popular literature attacking the scientific status quo. Climate of Corruption will bring welcome relief to all those who are fed up with climate crisis insanity.

2084: An Oral History of the Great Warming (Kindle Single)By 2084, global warming has proven worse than even the worst-case projections of scientists at the turn of the century. No country and no individual has escaped. Through interviews, this book of oral history captures the effects of the Great Warming on various countries and individuals, as reported in the year 2084.

Dire Predictions: Understanding Global Warming - The Illustrated Guide to the Findings of the IPCCThe Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has been issuing the essential facts and figures on climate change for nearly two decades. But the hundreds of pages of scientific evidence quoted for accuracy by the media and scientists alike, remain inscrutable to the general public who may still question the validity of climate change.

Esteemed climate scientists Michael E. Mann and Lee R. Kump, have partnered with DK Publishing to present Dire Predictions-an important book in this time of global need. Dire Predictions presents the information documented by the IPCC in an illustrated, visually-stunning, and undeniably powerful way to the lay reader. The scientific findings that provide validity to the implications of climate change are presented in clear-cut graphic elements, striking images, and understandable analogies.

Unstoppable Global Warming: Every 1,500 Years, Updated and Expanded EditionSinger and Avery present—in popular language supported by in-depth scientific evidence—the compelling concept that global temperatures have been rising mostly or entirely because of a natural cycle. Using historic data from two millennia of recorded history combined with the natural physical records found in ice cores, seabed sediment, cave stalagmites, and tree rings, Unstoppable Global Warming argues that the 1,500 year solar-driven cycle that has always controlled the earth's climate remains the driving force in the current warming trend.

Trillions of dollars spent on reducing fossil fuel use would have no effect on today's rising temperatures. The public policy key, Singer and Avery propose, is adaptation, not fruitless attempts at prevention. Further, they offer convincing evidence that civilization's most successful eras have coincided with the cycle's warmest peaks. With the added benefit of modern technology, humanity can not only survive global climate change, but thrive.
