HELP #1:

Make sure your thermostat is no lower than 78 degrees this summer!
Almost half of the energy we use in our homes goes to heating and cooling. You could save about 2,000 pounds of carbon dioxide a year with this simple adjustment. The American Council for an Energy Efficient Economy has more tips for saving energy on heating and cooling.

I think the above tip only makes sense if you have air conditioning... all I have is heating.

I would say something, but I would regret it sooooo...I'm not.

I have like, 5 fans around my house since my thermostat broke when my family first moved into this house. So it doesn't really apply to me.

Ugh, those colors are so bright, it's blinding.
As a game that requires six friends, an HDTV, and skill, I can see why the majority of TMK is going to hate on it hard.

Well, Mr. Wiggles since you are not using any airconditioning at all I will give you a few points for that.  Just remember, when the problem is fixed: No lower than 78 degrees in summer. 

Hirocon-20 pts.
Mr. Wiggles-5 points.

Hirocon is in the lead!

G-Dawg, you can post your opinions here!  In fact that would probably be best, so please do.

OK...I honestly don't care about the environment...AT ALL. I don't think that anything's going to happen that is WORLD ENDING.  Well I mean, I care for animals and this and that...but the Global Warming thing is a joke.

That's okay.  So are you saying you don't believe in global warming?

My air conditioner is set at 67°, with 2 fans inside of it blowing.

I WIN! :D

I have only my fan and my window. No air conditioning, just heat.

Well, Fuzzy, you try to persuede us here on the internet, but does your whole town practice these things?
If not, you should try to advocate to them. We know you want to do something, but telling us to do things that We aren't going to do is spamming and flooding. Please give it a rest.
My opinion is that the world is already irreversably damaged and we've done too much damage already. There is too much pollution already. I believe in global warming, and it's all or faults. Unless people that want to kill anyone who ever polluted and clean out the air, the earth is facing it's last few centuries.
Sure helping a little is fine, but that's like a quarter in earth's parking meter.

That is much too low.  You are making Earth even more not enjoyable.  Thanks.  Thanks for destroying future generations and making this problem even more difficult than it already is.

You people are great!  20 points!

solidmushroom: No, no, no, no, no, no.  We will never get anywhere with that attitude!  Remember, at the end of the day we should not get too discouraged.  What you do is only part of the equation.  That was true.  But every little bit helps!  Governments are the real stoppers of this, but that doesn't mean we are off the hook.  Even if your theory is correct, does that mean we should just go on polluting?  Of course not!  Stay on track and never lose focus.

Why not? I want to live the rest of my life happy, not uncomfortable. I mean I'd rather live a short happy life than a long miserable one.
