U.N.: Climate Change Threatens World Peace

Yeah. All those tanks and soldiers and bombs they are dropping in the middle east aren't threatening peace....it's global warming!

Of course climate change threatens world peace.. that's not anything new..

It's all about who controls the resources, in this case the land that can produce food and drinkable water.

It's rather logical.

Thanks. Wonderful insight.

Considering the accelerated despoiling of the planet, it won't be much longer until drinking water is the most precious commodity in existence. It already is in many regions of the world. Just wait a few years when the mercury leaching from the landfills from CFL's pollutes the groundwaterbecause people can't be counted on to dispose of them properly....in the toxic waste section. Oh, I forgot, landfills don't accept toxic waste if it is presented as such.

So they will just throw them in the regular trash bag for the garbageman...who couldn't care less what's in the bag.

Thank you federal gov't for mandating CFLs.

-more info and the rationale for doing away with incandescents(with which I don't agree because all it does is replace one form of mercury poisoning with another)

Doesn't disposal of mercury-based products harm the environment?

•Yes, mercury is classified as a hazardous material by the US Environmental Protection Agency and CFLs should be recycled instead of being thrown out with the normal trash. However, in many cases use of CFLs will offset mercury that would otherwise be introduced into the environment from other sources. For example, coal contains mercury and this mercury is released into the environment when coal is burned to produce electricity. If the electricity used to operate your lamps is generated from coal, and you operate 100-watt incandescent lamps for 10,000 hours, the power generating plant will release between 40 mg and 70 mg of mercury into the environment, depending upon the type of coal being used. If instead of the 100-watt incandescent lamp, you use a 25-watt CFL, the power plant mercury emissions drop to between 10 and 18 mg over the same 10,000 hour period, again depending upon the type of coal used. Even when the 5 mg of mercury in the CFL is added to the environment at the end of the lamp's 10,000 hours life, the total mercury from using the CFL is far less than using the incandescent lamp. Mercury emissions will be lower for For lower power incandescent lamps and CFL replacements, but for any incandescent lamp of 40 watts or greater, there will be more mercury added to the environment by using an incandescent lamp than by using a CFL, assuming that the electricity used to operate both is generated by burning coal.

UN is about helping others and making a brighter world and a better tomorrow!!!!!!

thats common sense you moron

U N Threatens World Peace.

False hierarchies, gcrruption, greed and stupidity are the real threat..the rest is all distraction
