Honestly, do you know the consequences of air pollution and global warming?
July 8th, 2010 | 
Author: I’m doing a research project for 8th grade Social Studies. To help answer my thesis question, I would like to take a poll. Please, no spam answers or effortless answers.
Do you know that air pollution and global warming could lead to:
Trillions of dollars wasted on attempts to stop global warming
Damage to our lakes, causing fish to die and slowing our eco-system
Increased death rates from deadly fumes in the air (4.6 million people die per year today!)
Increased temperature resulting in the number and intensity of floods, droughts, hurricanes, heat waves, and species extinction
This is not all. There are many things that will hurt us. Please answer honestly.
Aks other people you know if they know about these effects. I need a lot of results.

How much would you do to help save the environment?
I have decided to live a cleaner, greener life. With all the strange natural phenomenons that have been occurirng (hurricanes, melting ice caps) I feel like I need to do more. I recycle, use energy-saving light bulbs, but there is so much more I can do. I’m thinking of taking the bus to work instead of driving my Jeep. Unfortunately the bus stop is 1 mile from my office. Am I crazy to want to do this or just really ambitious about saving the environment? Think of something you could do to live a greener life that requires some type of sacrifice – would you do it? Tell me what you think.
Water!!!!!?
What effects do major bodies of water have on the water, including hurricanes, cyclones, and tsunamis?
