Make it a major crime to cut down trees in a forest. Insist that for every new born baby, ten trees are planted by any member of the family. This is a very minor chore and should be done with any sniffles. I would also ensure that any person who discharges waste into rivers is paraded in front of people and embarrassed to tears before being locked up in a desert stronghold for a while. He or she would be singing a different tune when released.Drivers of cars that belch smoke should have their licenses withdrawn for a while and given a lesson on pollution and it's effects on Earth. Of course human rights organization would come yelling at me but I'd promptly tell them off. I would also give awards and recognition to people who use solar energy. I would make sure that solar equipment is not taxed by the government. I am on the roll and and could go on for ever.

Your best bet is to submit detailed proposals to foundations that support environmental activities. Good luck!\n\ncc

aww i hate that. the rainforest are already reduced to a 4% of the entire world area and they still want to cut. get the National wildlife and forestn preservation for support.

a tree that grows money... would end world poverty!\nwould plant them everywhere and let them grow wild.

Reduce pollutions is the answer, but a certain political party, and their lobbyist will fight you all the way. So I say there is no answer.

Well the poor tend to have more kids,\n\nI think a long term solution is ration food to the world that we sell like OPEC does oil we would be the richest country in the world again.

Rainforests must be the only natural thing left that delays human extinction!\n\nAnswerer 1 is also very right! \n\nBut that doesn't mean that his answer is better than mine!

Deforestation is number one, it reduce the ability of an area to absorb carbon dioxide and thereby resulting into more polution, it result into soil errosions, which result into flooding and mudslide.

Many possible solutions have been proposed to stave off global warming, should it actually be occurring. Some are very practical, while others are grandiose, to say the least. What is certain is that as the world's population continues to grow and developing nations develop, the world's need for space and energy will continue to grow. The need for space will accelerate deforestation. The need for energy will almost certainly increase the rate of fossil fuel burning. Listed below are a number of proposed "solutions" to combat global warming.\n\nThe simplest solution is an old one: conservation. Each gallon of gasoline releases 8.64 kg of CO2 into the atmosphere (source USEPA). Each kilowatt of electricity generated by a coal-fired plant produces about 1.4 kg of CO2 (source USEPA). Use less = emit less. The USEPA estimates that energy-saving appliance standards in the U.S. will have reduced national electricity consumption by 3% by the year 2000. This reduction will offset the need for 31 large power plants. A 625 MW coal-fired plant (serves about 425,000 homes) emits 1 million tons of carbon each year. The best part about conservation is it also saves you money. Again, the USEPA estimates that consumers will save more than $140 billion by the year 2030 with energy-saving appliances.\n\nPlant a tree. Forests cover 10 billion acres worldwide and sequester 1 trillion tons of carbon. The IPCC estimates that 850 million acres could be made available for planting trees. These trees would take up 60 to 90 billion tons of carbon by the year 2050. Unfortunately, this is only 12 to 15% of projected emissions during this period. Moreover, trees mature and stop rapidly consuming carbon. They are cut down, burned, or decay, which releases their stored CO2. So trees are a temporary partial solution at best. However, if these trees were used for lumber or paper products, their carbon would be stored for much longer periods of time. This might give the next solution time to work.\n\nThe oceans. The oceans already hold 36 trillion tons of carbon and absorb an additional 10 GtC from the ocean surface components each year (see Carbon Cycle). The ocean surface currently absorbs 2.5 GtC from the atmosphere, or roughly 40% of anthropogenic emissions. Given time, the oceans will probably absorb human-induced emissions, just not as fast as we are currently producing them. Proposals have been made to pump power plant emissions directly into the deep ocean. It would probably work, but would be extremely expensive

In many ways for instance reducing cutting trees in the tropical forest area or replanting after cutting trees,differentiating agricultural zone from industrial zone, making zone of grazing lands.Above all reducing the industrial wastage links to the sea and polluting the air.

yup! i agree with u....... \nthe  remedy is to atleast plant more trees and try not to mess up with mother nature in the name of developments.... \ndevelopments are good......... but who will be there to utilise it? \n\nwe are doing lot of bad than good to mother earth.... we need to start now.........

Develop ways that the people who live there can earn a livelihood without damage to the forest.  Ways where they work to protect the forest and yet earn a living.
