What could easily be eliminated to save energy resources or to reduce pollution?

It would probably be something that the neighbors use, not what we use, right? That’s what I’d choose.

Please add a few words of wisdom in case there’s a tie for naming the same thing.
All of these are very excellent & valuable answer, but I should have been more clear in asking for something the neighbors use that’s such a nuisance.

What are you willing to do to reduce pollution and the consumption of gasoline?

Easiest to hardest.

1. Don’t idol needlessly: In a drive-through; waiting to pick up someone; leaving the kids in a running car to watch a DVD. If it’s more than 30 seconds, turn it off.

2. Don’t drive aggressively. Coast up to red lights, no need to have one peddle on the floor at all times. You don’t have to be right on someone rear; it wastes gas and causes the domino effect of stop & go traffic. Accelerate slowly, you don’t save much time. Leave two minutes early, increase your millage up to 30%.

3. Open the windows, turn off the air, especially don’t wait for someone while idling with the air on. Roll down the windows, you’ll live.

4. Walk, bike, bus, train whenever you can.

5. Don’t buy SUV’s or other gas guzzlers. How often do you pack it to capacity and use all that space. Save on payments, gas, insurance, etc. Buy a hybrid or a smaller car and rent a van or truck when needed.

6. Live near your work. Work near your home.

What is the name of the gas that often accumulates in a closed underground water tank that causes explosion?

I often heard that in a closed underground water-tank(or reservoir), if someone light a fire or switch on an electric bulb the gas causes explosion. I want to know: What is the name of that gas & what is the chemical reaction behind it? Please try to explain me elaborately.. I am waiting for ur answer.

How do we get help on a environmental pollution problem?

Olin Mathesion polluted an old railbed with mercury, lead , arsenic & other dioxons. They want to turn it into a hiking and biking trail, we are haveing alot of water problems with wells, springs, streams, ponds & health problems. There were NO environmental studies done by the Town of Saltville , Virginia.

Conservation/Ecology Presentations?

These are presentation topics that I am going to be giving as a fundraiser for an Earthwatch expedition (http://www.earthwatch.org) in 2010. I have listed the age appropriate in parentheses. I would like to get a feel for what people would prefer to hear about the most. Please rank them in order of preference (1 being the first choice, etc.).

Wildlife Conservation (Grades 4 to Adults/Seniors)
Wildlife & Society (Grades 4 to Adults/Seniors)
Natural History, Ecology, & Conservation of Large Mammals (Grades 4 to Adults/Seniors)
Bobcat Ecology (Grades 1-12, Adults/Seniors)
Black Bear Ecology (Grades 1-12, Adults/Seniors)
Coyote Ecology (Grades 1-12, Adults/Seniors)

Thanks.

Human Ecology & Evolution?

Does Evolution fit in with Human Ecology?
I am writing a simple paper on Human Ecology for a gen ed intro to ecology class and the outline is as follows:

Human Ecology Defined: What is Human Ecology?

Establishment of Human Ecology: Include many of the “founders” of human ecology & it’s history.

Human Ecology & Evolution: Types of evolution (social, cultural, sociocultural? Theories etc.

Social Evolution:

Cultural Evolution: Predictive Theory- Structures & Forces

Criticisms of Evolution Theories:

Future of the Field of Human Ecology

Is discussing evolution too biological? I am not very experienced with Ecology, so I am not sure if evolution fits appropriately. I am a Psychology major so when asked to write a paper on an ecology topic I chose Human Ecology because I THOUGHT that would be the easiest for me, however, I am still having some insecurities about it. Please give me your insight! Do you think this goes well enough? Thanks! Oh & the paper only have to be 5-7 pages so I can cut out some areas if needed!

How do I pump water to a fountain without using electricity?

My school has a man made forest. This project has just been done late 2006. It was created by the Green Club where environment & saving nature resources is concern. But we have a fountain which reacts like a river. People ask me, is it environment friendliness just to keep the pump on all day to pump water out. I couldn’t answer them. So my question is, how do I pump water without using electricity?

What is "Hydrogen Economy"? How it will impact the environment and ecology? Is there co-op R&D efforts?

Hydrogen fuel when burned releases water in the atmosphere (the opposite of burning fossil fuels) and hence it is eco and environment friendly. However, the storage problems of hydrogen, comes in the way for countries to adopt to this fuel.

There should be international collaborative, cooperative and coordinated research and development efforts so that future global citizens are freed from greenhouse effects and global warming and all the other attendant ill effects of burning fossil fuels.

I would like the experts in the field of hydrogen economy to step up and accelerate the R&D efforts, especially in the storage and distribution of hydrogen for insuring the future global citizens from the greenhouse effects and global warming.
