Our survival depends on fighting climate change
I am 88 and have seen a lot of change over the decades, but I do not
think anyone living now has ever faced a more serious threat to life
than the threat of global climate change. As President Obama said
recently, “More droughts and floods and wildfires are not a joke.
They’re a threat to our children’s future.”
I come from a far different time. Born in a coal-mining town, I was raised on a ranch five miles out of Lander, Wyo., just two miles from where my mother was born, in 1901. I went to one-room schools and graduated from Lander High School at 18, just in time to become gun fodder for World War II.
My crew of 10 young men flew a B-24 bomber from New York City to South America, then across the Atlantic to Africa’s Sahara Desert and a temporary training camp in Tunisia. At last we crossed the Mediterranean to our tent camp among olive trees near Foggia, Italy. Five of those young men with me never returned home alive. Just two of us are still living.
My 32nd mission finally ended my Air Force career. Five miles above Vienna, Austria, on May 10, 1944, a German’s flak burst pulverized the right side of my face and destroyed my right eye. There was a long recovery, and for my actions that day, I was awarded the Sliver Star, the nation's third highest combat military decoration. Yet when I left the military at 20, I was still not old enough to vote or even buy a drink. I went on to college, got involved in wildlife and environmental work, and never wavered in my love of Wyoming, the West and the very planet itself.
So now, while I still have a voice to speak, I want to communicate a warning: I believe we are at a crossroads that puts our civilization at risk. If we do nothing to stop carbon dioxide from going into the atmosphere, the Earth will face a future similar to that of Mars, becoming barren and lifeless.
When World War II was thrust on us, we turned our economic system into a war machine as every American agreed to sacrifice in order to defeat Nazi Germany and its allies. That is the model for what it will take to overcome what now threatens our planet.
Hitler and Tojo and Mussolini, however, were human beings with faces, while carbon dioxide is invisible and yet a part of our everyday environment. How can you overcome something you can’t see?
ABC journalist Bill Blakemore thinks one of the reasons Americans don’t -- or can’t -- accept the threat of climate change is because of the “unprecedented scale and complexity of the crisis of manmade global warming.” And he adds, “It’s new, and therefore unknown, at first. And we’re naturally frightened of the unknown.”
Yet Rob Watson, an environmentalist, likes to say: “Mother Nature is just chemistry, biology and physics. That’s all she is. You cannot sweet-talk her. You cannot spin her. … Do not mess with Mother Nature. But that is just what we are doing.”
You only need a lick of sense to see that something is terribly wrong. Devastating events, attributable to climate change, are destroying people’s livelihoods and taking lives all around the world. Climate scientists tell us it is only going to get worse unless and until we do something about carbon.
To do something about carbon means reducing our dependence on coal and oil, and here in Wyoming, even talking about it is heresy. But we must begin to talk about it before it is too late, and then we must act.
What can we do? Jim Rogers, CEO of Duke Energy-Progress Energy, the largest electric utility in the United States, said this September: “I believe eventually there will be regulation of carbon in this country.” James Hansen, one of the world’s leading climate scientists, agrees. In fact, everyone concerned about climate change believes a carbon tax has advantages over every other approach. Still, every single carbon-tax bill introduced in Congress has failed.
I believe it is past time for all of us -- and especially those of us who live in Wyoming, where so much carbon is produced -- to face the hard truth. We don’t have a choice: We have to face this crisis as if we were at war, because, unfortunately, that is the bitter truth. We are in a fight for our very survival – and for the survival of the whole planet.

I agree with him about his opinion that said anyone living now has never faced a more serious threat than the threat of global climate change. I think our world has been facing a serious problem, global warming, that caused climate change recently. The effect of climate change not only has been felt by us, but also all nations in the world have felt it. There are more droughts, floods, wildfires, dryness, failed harvest, strange disease appeared, etc-etc.
BalasHapusOur world's temperature become hotter than it's before because there is an ozone hole in the atmosphere got bigger and bigger. It is caused by the amount of carbon increase rapidly. This made the atmosphere of earth become higher. The increase in the amount of carbon is said that comes from human in the earth. It means that our daily activities take important contribution in this problem. Such as smoke that comes from our vehicles, cigarettes, many industries, etc-etc. If we do no action now, this problem will get worse and worse. Therefore, we have to face this crisis as if we were at war, just like what he said. We have to do nothing to stop the carbon, but we can decrease the carbon out. There are some ways to decrease the carbon out. First, we have to thrifty the use of electricity, such as: change to the smart lamp; turn off the lamp in the afternoon; turn off the electronic if it isn't used. Second, decrease the use of vehicle, we have to as many as possible walk or use bike to work. Third, we have to do forestation, fill our front yard with trees. There are still many ways that we can do for decrease the amount of carbon. The simplest thing we can do to decrease the carbon out by planting as much as possible trees. We have to do something to overcome this complicated problem from now. Otherwise, it will be a more serious threat for our future and also for our next generations. ( PRISKIA RIFANI / E1D112097 )
Thanks.
HapusYeah Sir, We have to do something. In the past, Tom Bell struggled to terminate second world war, now the war which we have to win together is the war to prevent the threat from global climate change. It caused by global warming. Of course, we don’t want to make this problem growing hardly. Everyone can contribute to reduce global warming. Small alterations that we make in our lives can help significantly in finding solutions to this serious problem. Let us together hand in hand to handle this threat.
BalasHapusThese are some simple things we can do to address global climate change. one of the great positive steps that we can accomplish is planting some plants in the yard and other which are vacant land, rather than the vacant land left without planting. Alternatively, Turn off the lights during the day. Unconsciously, turning on the lights will also make the temperature gets hot. We can feel the heat emanating from the surrounding lights. And there are many simple things we can do to overcomes global climate change.
Global climate change currently happening not just happen. All of these things have a reason and we are the ones who should be looking for what is the reason of all this. We have caused the amount of carbon dioxide increases, whereas from day to day the number of trees that can absorb carbon dioxide decreases. Start from now or never, we plant some plants around our homes and conserve energy while we can save.

BalasHapusMr. Tom bell has gone through World War 2 with some difficulty, with his sacrifice and nowadays he want change this world with better climate, cause we are facing the war too, but not war like in the Wolrd War II with different cases, that are Global Warming, Climate Change and Environmental Degradation, some direct result are the melting polar ice caps, an increase in volume and sealevel, climate change and the global climate, agriculture and food supply, animal migration and decreasing the number of species of animals and plants, the crisis of water resources have the potential for conflict among sectors and users, security disturbances, human health, with the emergence of a variety of animal and human diseases (dengue fever, avian influenza, etc.)
BalasHapusIt’s a fact that we are experiencing now in the international country especially in Indonesia. and we thinking about how to controll all.
Some effective ways are : Reduce the production of carbon dioxide gas to lessen the use of fossil fuels and greenhouse gas production to another. This is difficult because the country industrialized countries (especially the U.S.) are not willing to cut production, Suppress or halt deforestation, Reforestation on a large scale to create absorption region (sinks) of carbon dioxide gas, Localizing or by capturing carbon dioxide gas into the well and inject petroleum wells to push oil to the surface. Technology can be done to replace fossil fuels with alternative fuels are renewable and environmentally friendly.
And the last we have to do something to change this world a better place. keep our earth in order to remain sustainable, The Better The Sooner.

BalasHapusWhat toms bells tried to explain of his pragraph opinion is right.we are living at the dangeraous situation now, when human do all things to incrise their live for better and better,so they maked many kind of technology without warning the negative effect.we build many big industries without thinking about nature consevation,because big industries will give much sewage plant.and the sewage plant can pollute water around the area. temperature of the Earth is getting hotter because of human construct high buildings and large glass. not only that, people also use the air conditioner in every building they have maked.all these things will make ozone depleting and global warming become worse and harder for opponents. agricultural sector is the most feel the effects of the global warming, because the weather and the season uncontrollable as it used to, that's what the impact of crop failures,and also diseases caused by new virus that is more dangerous than before.so what we are waiting for guys ?? Do want our earth and our environment is getting polluted and dangerous to live.or you want to wait for the mass death ,because the earth is alredy toxic as like in move that we have seen or wathed.Like my friend said in his statement about prevent global warming ”Now or never ” thats mean we have to do all things that we can,may be to prevent global warming start from our selves like move on from using AC (air conditioner) to fan or leave your own vahicle to use the public transpot.plan some trees around your environment and keep the river from rubbish.there are many things that we can do more.may be the impact of what we will try to cope with global warming may not be directly visible but everything need process and time.so lets prevent global warming !!for better life,for future and for next generation.
BalasHapusLittle by little but sure guys !! (LALU.HANGRIAN WIRADISMA-nim E1D112055-Iib reg sore)
Tom tried to raise our awareness of the dangers of the impact of global warming. Tom made the analogy with World War 2 While the citizens of America and willing to sacrifice for war against their enemies. But the difference now, we are dealing with nature is something that can’t be resisted when it showed his anger.
BalasHapusThen we ought to be aware of the impact of global warming. Many Banners of global warming are meaningless if we didn’t do anything to implement them.
We need a concrete step of the citizens of the world to save the planet that we live on. This earth will we bequeath to our children, what would happen if they wouldn’t see the beauty of the world that we enjoying right now. Melting glaciers, tropical islands are disappearing due to rising sea levels, rising global temperatures, weather anomalies, the radiation that penetrates the earth and much more.
One of the sources of supply of carbon dioxide is the burning of fossil fuels. The use of fossil fuels began to rise rapidly since the industrial revolution in the 18th century. At that time, coal became the dominant energy source for later replaced by oil in the mid-19th century. In the 20th century, gas started to be used as an energy source. Change of trend in the use of fossil fuels is actually indirectly have reduced the amount of carbon dioxide released into the air, as gas releases less carbon dioxide than oil and much less than coal. However, the use of renewable energy and nuclear energy further reduce the release of carbon dioxide into the air. Nuclear energy, although controversial for reasons of safety and hazardous waste, but doesn’t emit any carbon dioxide at all.
The easiest way to remove carbon dioxide in the air is to maintain trees and plant more trees.

I think Mr.Bell is a good man who still want to think about the environmental conditions. As he once said that he believe we are at a crossroads that puts our civilization at risk. If we do nothing to stop carbon dioxide from going into the atmosphere, the Earth will face a future similar to that of Mars, becoming barren and lifeless.
BalasHapusWhat has been said by Mr.Bell is true. If we look at the condition of the deteriorating environment caused by the carbon dioxide it is true what has been predicted by Mr.Bell that the Earth will be like Mars, becoming barren and lifeless. Point of the problem now is that most people do not realize and understand the impact of carbon dioxide, because they can not see directly from the impact. But if we look at the current state of our environment, the impact of carbon dioxide has been getting worse, as the presence of a hole in the ozone layer of the earth that is increasingly enlarged resulting in hotter weather and climate on Earth is uncertain, the melting of ice at the north and south poles resulting in ever increasing volumes of sea water and causing many small islands are sinking, and etc-etc.
What we need right now is we as human consciousness to keep our earth so as not to be worse than now. In addition to awareness, action is also needed. Actions that we can do to reduce the impact of the events of the so-called Global warming is: first, we have to the thrifty use of electricity, such as: change to the smart lamp; turn off the lamp in the afternoon; turn off the electronic if it is not used, since the use of electricity will have an impact on the use of oil and coal (as is usually to be light, electricity need both). Second, decrease the use of vehicle, we have as many as possible to walk or bike to work use, because the fumes or exhaust gases from the vehicle (which is carbon monoxide and more dangerous than carbon dioxide) can damage and extend hole in the earth's ozone layer. And the last, we have to do forestation, fill our front yard with trees, as more and more trees are planted and grows, the more the carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide are filtered and are concatenated into oxygen through photosynthesis by the leaves on the plants and trees.
Actually, there are many ways to save the earth from global warming impacts, but at least we should start as early as possible with the simple things around us.

MY COMMENT
BalasHapusGlobal climate change is one of the most deadly world damages which can destroy all of living thing in the world and bring the effect half of the doomsday. Therefore, I think that all of the Tom Bell said about the extremely climate change and the threat of it, is right exactly, because all of us can see the sign of it, such the droughts, flash flood and wildfires which has so deadly effect for human generation and living thing in the world. Consequently all of us as a human and leader in the world have to take action to reduce moreover terminate the cause of the global climate change with all of act we can, although it’s a small thing such reducing our dependence on coal, oil and gas oil, by reducing the using of private vehicle and choose for the citizen transportation. From now on let’s give our contribution to solve all of the global climate change problem to maintain and save our earth from the damages, because we don’t have many time to argue many more to blame each other on the problem, because it’s our problem and responsibility to solve it together to survival of the whole planet.

I think I agree with the statement of Tom bell where the changes in climate are now in because of the destruction of human life and the environment resulting from the war in large world.Some assess climate change will threaten the survival in the present and in the future front, and nature and environmental experts has also been a lot of research on what happens to the climate at this moment they thought all that happened was also highly expect global.Society warming climate change is not constantly threaten their survival in earth.Here Tom bell did not think that the result of all that has happened in the country after the war greatly affect human survival with extreme climate change.
BalasHapusMany natural disasters in the world, is already indicating that the climate is being happening.Tom Bell was the statement on climate change that if it continues to happen then it would threaten the earth and the earth is slowly would be more similar to the planet Mars is barren and lifeless .
Additionally wars have changed a lot of difference in the world, especially in the lives of other human beings and the environment causes of extreme climate change is that the longer the carbon dioxide increases due to human activity are now increasingly threaten the earth and its contents.
So my opinion, people should pay more attention to environment his life wherever he is because it can indirectly save earth which is where the other life.Our hope that the war will not happen again because it would be better for people to work together equally sustainment live life to the welfare of the human race.

I think it's a good idea and I agree with tom bell because it was concerned with the problems being faced by the earth. The impact of global warming is precisely the complexity created by human beings themselves are very harmful to the environment around us, especially the continuity of our planet in the future. Even so, there are still many people who think it is just a mere issue and not dangerous for some years to come.
BalasHapusEarth is essentially carbon gas naturally produces, but still at a lower level and still be resolved by the earth itself. But this time, even people who produce carbon with an excessive amount. Pollution caused by industrial plants, oil continuous use, and the use of coal as a base for the manufacture of bombs that will destroy the forest and make the earth hotter.
As tom bell said "how you can cope with anything that you can not see?". we can not avoid the global warming, but at least we can prevent and reduce the impact of global warming is that the earth and life itself can be saved and it starts from our own consciousness. First, we must reduce excessive electricity consumption. Second, reforestation and tree planting starts from a garden around our house. Third, fuel use by reducing the use of private vehicles. At least but not last, limit the use of paper. Make the opinion "if we use a piece of paper, means we have to cut down a tree". I think the early prevention will slightly reduce the dangers of global warming.

In my opinion Tom Bell does something very useful because all he did in the past, he's fighting for a state that is in our world, he is very concerned about the state of the earth we are very concerned about his condition, he does not only think of themselves but also think about the state of future that will come when all he did could be beneficial to our children and grandchildren.
BalasHapusI also agree with Mr. Tom Bell who said "I believe it is past for us all - and especially those who live in Wyoming, where so much carbon is produced - to face the hard truth. We have no choice: we must face this crisis as if we were at war, because, unfortunately, it is a harsh reality. We are in a fight for our survival - and for the survival of the entire planet ".
It was a good lesson for all of us to be more loving our planet by damaging it and not do any more mistakes in the past, especially the problem is the erratic weather changes at the present time.
For that we need to engage in activities that can save our planet from warming global terms, especially doing the planting of thousands of trees or reforestation of deforested.
Maybe that all from me thank you.

Tom is an ex hero, who had participated in World War II . He is the people that very care about the future of this earth. He argues that the worst threat to the Earth is in a natural global climate change. he is the most feared in the future the world will be like a barren planet mars and lifeless if we do not do something to stop the carbon dioxide escaped into the atmosphere. Increase in global temperatures caused by increasing amounts of carbon derived from the use of a variety of industrial goods by humans on earth. So that the hole in the atmosphere becomes larger.
BalasHapusIncrease in temperature can cause unstable weather at the Earth's surface. As a result, the long drought and forest fires. Hot temperatures will cause crop failure and famine situations. In addition, wildlife and human health was threatened. We as the younger generation should be aware of the impact of global warming. The first easiest way to remove carbon dioxide in the air is to maintain trees and plant more trees. Trees, especially young and rapidly growing, absorbing so much carbon dioxide, break through photosynthesis and store the carbon in wood. Across the world, the rate of forest encroachment has reached an alarming level. In many areas, plants that grow back a little once because the soil loses its fertility when it is converted to other uses, such as agriculture or residential development. Steps to overcome this is to reforestation increasing role in reducing greenhouse gases. The second way to remove carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide gas can also be eliminated directly. How to inject (injecting) the gas into oil wells to bring oil to the surface. Injection can also be done to isolate the gas under the ground as in oil wells, coal seams or aquifers. This has been done in one of a drilling rig off the coast of Norway, where the carbon dioxide is brought to the surface with natural gas captured and injected back into the aquifer so it can not return to the surface. So, any way he had to start from self-awareness.

I agree with tom bell,now the war which we have to do together is the war to prevent the threat from global climate change. It caused by global warming,Actually we do not need radical changes to help this planet becoming better. Just changing our some activities,that can reduce the "carbon footprint". But the important thing is how we give our children a better place to live.and must begin to talk about it before it is too late, and then we must act.. all begins from us.. we need to do is planting trees every chance. Either in the environment or by participating in a tree planting program. Can by donating seeds, funds, and other else..

BalasHapusTom Bell is from Wyoming, the coal mine city which so much carbon produced in there. Now, He is 88 years old and have seen a lot of change of global climate. When he graduated from Lander High School at 18 years old, he is an American Air Force for World War II.

But.... What must we doing?
We all have to maintain, and protect our planet from mass destruction. That accured caused us. As living creatures on earth.
What's more,in order to prevent global warming. We as living creatures (humans) on earth. Must be aware of the impact of carbon dioxode due to.
The to reduce the impact of carbon dioxide. We have to carry out a mass tree planting program and prevent illegal logging.
We had to struggle in life in order to maintain this nature. Because the earth is where we live life.

I agree with the opinion of Mr. Bell that global warming is a serious problem. Many of us are not aware and do not care about the dangers and effects of global warming, one of the effects of global warming is melting the North Pole can make the volume of sea water rise and can lead to the sinking of several low-lying island.
BalasHapusIt is one of the causes of its many greenhouses in the developed and developing countries that its buildings using glass, smoke smoke coming from factories and industrial plants of the vehicle engine.
Many ways to combat this problem is to plant trees, reduce the use of motorized vehicles, not erect greenhouses.

I agree with Mr.Tom Bell about his opinion that said anyone living now has never faced a more serious threat than the threat of global climate change . Climate change from age to age more and more dangerous, particularly global warming. Our world changes from year to year, examples in this Lombok island. That was once filled with fields and trees is now a luxury buildings such as hotels and hospitals. Not to mention the pollution is everywhere, once people use their bikes now use motor cycles and cars. Almost all citizens of Lombok using the vehicle. Increasingly sophisticated technology, even for farmers plow their fields using the traditional tools again. Different times have become more sophisticated and innovative. It is true with all the modern technology jobs become easier and faster, but they never think about the impact or effect of the technology. Therefore we as the people who love the environment and want to build a better future. Let us cultivate a sense of caring for the environment, in a way that little things like planting a tree in the yard of the house, reducing the excessive use of electricity, dispose of waste in place, and reduce the excessive development. World in order to create a more natural,better life for life, for the future and for the next generation.

The problem of global warming is our collective responsibility. Why?
BalasHapusBecause, global warming occurs in our shelter and caused by our own hands. Certainly we need a comfortable place to live. But lately the earth's temperature was getting hotter. That interfere with our comfort. Rising global temperatures is one of the effects of global warming caused by increased amount of carbon dioxide in the air. The increasing amount of carbon dioxide in the air is the result of our own behavior, such as the motor vehicle fumes that we use and illegal logging. The fact, now the number of production vehicles especially motorcycles is increasing. Of course it all will add to the amount of carbon dioxide in the air. While the condition of forests in the world, almost bald. Obviously with these conditions will not reduce the effects of global warming. When the temperature of the earth is increasingly rising, ice in the North Pole will melt. As a result, sea levels will rise. Even small islands will disappear. Not only that, the ecosystem would be disrupted. And who else will receive the impact? Of course our children, and grandchildren in the future.
Therefore, we must begin with self-awareness of each of us. Start with small things like using electronics or lights sparingly. So even though what we do is worth little, but at least we do not add to global warming. (diah mursinta sari/E1D112030/II.B)
I think Mr. Tom Bell opinion is right. That said anyone living now has never faced more serious threat than the threat of global climate change. Global warming is the first reason climate change. The effect of climate change not only has been felt by us, but also all people in the world have felt it. Our world's temperature become hotter than it's before because there is an ozone hole in the atmosphere got bigger and bigger. It is caused by the amount of carbon increase rapidly. This made the atmosphere of earth become higher. The increase in the amount of carbon is said that comes from human in the earth. It means that our daily activities take important contribution in this problem. Such as smoke that comes from our vehicles, cigarettes, many industries, etc-etc. If we do no action now, this problem will get worse and worse. Therefore, we have to face this crisis as if we were at war, just like what he said. We have to do nothing to stop the carbon, but we can decrease the carbon out. There are some ways to decrease the carbon out. First, we have to thrifty the use of electricity, such as: change to the smart lamp; turn off the lamp in the afternoon; turn off the electronic if it isn't used. Second, decrease the use of vehicle, we have to as many as possible walk or use bike to work. Third, we have to do forestation, fill our front yard with trees. There are still many ways that we can do for decrease the amount of carbon. The simplest thing we can do to decrease the carbon out by planting as much as possible trees. We have to do something to overcome this complicated problem from now. Otherwise, it will be a more serious threat for our future and also for our next generations.

We should be proud of Tom, who care about the future life trying to protect the earth from drought caused by global warming. Tom says that, "If we do nothing to stop carbon dioxide from going into the atmosphere, the Earth will face a future similar to that of Mars, becomig barren and lifeless". Therefore, the need for awareness of all citizens to avoid the things that lead to increased levels of carbon dioxide.
BalasHapusMan is one of the causes of global warming, because every second humans breathe in oxygen and breathe releasing it in the form of carbon dioxide. In addition, humans also have increased the amount of carbon dioxide released into the atmosphere when they burn fossil fuels, solid waste, and wood to warm buildings, moving vehicles and generate electricity. Where carbon dioxide is one of the factors causing a greenhouse gas that causes global warming. It is therefore very necessary plants to mitigate the effects of Global Warming. Since herbs / plants to absorb carbon dioxide during the process of photosynthesis. Photosynthesis split carbon dioxide and releasing oxygen into the atmosphere and take a carbon atom.
There are various ways to slow the impact of global warming, these methods are generally easy and simple. But performed less seriously by most people. Though global warming is a serious problem. Earth's temperature will increase the effects of air dry or dry season length. The melting of the polar ice mountains, rising sea levels, and the difficulty of finding a water source. The ways are: limit usage of paper (it is said that every piece of paper using then you've cut down a tree. Therefore use paper as effectively as possible), avoid Screen Saver (shut down your computer if it is not to be used in the long term, or if you're forced to leave your computer turned on, turn off the screen saver. activating the screen saver will take energy and Co2 emissions), ride public transportation (currently the number of private vehicles already very much and make claustrophobic. if we use a common vehicle then we reduce emissions greenhouse gases, as in the public transport can carry dozens of people, and it is very energy efficient. Compared with private cars just as the sedan that only carry a maximum of four people), plant the bamboo grove (The trees are proven to absorb CO2, but it turns out a tree or bamboo can absorb four times more CO2 than other trees), and many other ways to slow the impact of global warming.

I really agree with Mr.Tom, and I think he is a good man. Why the global warming is our survival responsibility? Because the global warming is very danger for us in the earth and we should save our world. What has been said by Mr.Bell is true. Tom tried to raise our awareness of the dangers of the impact of global warming. Tom made the analogy with World War 2 While the citizens of America and willing to sacrifice for war against their enemies. But the difference now, we are dealing with nature is something that can’t be resisted when it showed his anger.Many Banners of global warming are meaningless if we didn’t do anything to implement them. If we look at the condition of the deteriorating environment caused by the carbon dioxide it is true what has been predicted by Mr.Bell that the Earth will be like Mars, becoming barren and lifeless. This time, even people who produce carbon with an excessive amount. Pollution caused by industrial plants, oil continuous use, and the use of coal as a base for the manufacture of bombs that will destroy the forest and make the earth hotter.what would happen if they wouldn’t see the beauty of the world that we enjoying right now. Melting glaciers, tropical islands are disappearing due to rising sea levels, rising global temperatures, weather anomalies, the radiation that penetrates the earth and much more. I think the best alternative is we can do to decrease global climate change. one of the great positive steps that we can accomplish is planting some plants in the yard and other which are vacant land, rather than the vacant land left without planting. Alternatively, Turn off the lights during the day. Unconsciously, turning on the lights will also make the temperature gets hot. We can feel the heat emanating from the surrounding lights. And there are many simple things we can do to overcomes global climate change.

As what Mr.Tom Bell said that our survival is depends on how to keep the world's climate. Everybody knows that the global warming is very bad happen. So, i can call the global warming is the criminal againts humanity.who is guilty ???
BalasHapusAll of creatures live in the world include we are as the human being with an intelect. With the intelect, we can do anything, we can get anything n reach everything we want, of course with a force. But we the intelect too, somebody can break it all. The real example is that case of global warming. People have been make the sophisticated technology to command the cilivization especially for progress country (its called industry nation).Some technology which they have made as well as Rifles, AC,refrigerator,vihicle and many more. Actually they are consist of CFC,n2o n HCFC and They mostly produce of Carbon.Thats why our ozon is like a hole at the atmosphere.It surely really bothering the lifeness of the world. So, What Tom Bell said is right that we need to stop carbon. Its mean that reducing the excretion of carbon. I know that everthing has advantage and disadvantages. But whatever it is, something over is not good include carbon.We can stop it but we just can reducing. tO come out from this problem, we can try from the smal things such as riding a bike to work or school.(Exchactly, that must be a good policy of our goverment. maybe impose it for some area. The model is China). Next one,reducing consumting of electhric if itnot needed. Now, Our goverment ask us to do growing up for one human is one plant. Now, our survival depends on human to keep the climate. They must be have responsibility for our nature to pour the good climate. What we do is what we get. Just think !...( Risma Ayu=E1D112105=2b)..THANKS

BalasHapusFuture expectations of these efforts is to make one of Hydrocarbons alternative to BPO, which has no ozone depletion potential and low global warming potential. Pertamina Indonesia is currently developing hydrocarbon products as a substitute for CFC and HCFC as a refrigerant in air conditioning and refrigeration.
That trouble is a challenge for people all over the world and its not a joke.
It need a cooperation among progress countries, even from developt country.
Since Montreal Protocol in Vienna was on going. than PBB. On 16 September is ozon day.
This is a fenomena that we must solved together in order to create a more beautiful future for our children and grandchildren, tom bell is the best old man, how not after he quit his job in the military he went to college and was involved in some of the work that led for the good of the earth in the future, he also was able to share knowledge and express how he worried about the danger to the future of our earth.
BalasHapuslike say rob watson "Mother Nature just chemistry, biology and physics" this implies that everything we do must with we common sense, and try to do the best for carbon before we went too far in our desire alone . because this is a very important thing for the survival of our children and grandchildren in the future.
the climate is something very risky to endanger our planet at this time, with this we should be able to moved and supporting socialization and organization related to survival and the good of our planet d future so that the earth does not become like the planet Mars is dry and lifeless.
there is nothing more wonderful than doing what's best for ourselves and keep our earth to keep it beautiful. i think have is enough

Yes i'm so agree with him , were still young how we can lose with what he can think about the world. Ask to your self , you want just sit down and lopking ur world broke ? No no no we have to help him to fix the world. Tom bells is a old man who quit his job and college cauze he want to learn and think about the future. This moment global warming was coming, what we can do to stop global warming ? We have to help him . We can start from our place , with the low step and then allbpeople can to follow you and world . So i think always to keep spirit and change the world . NOVI AFNI NABILA E1D112083 bhs. Inggris reg. Sore 2 B
