Climate change is definitely here and I’m quite sure that human activity is tightly connected to it. 15 or 20 years ago when I was a child we have 20 – 50 centimeters of snow each winter and it usually lasted for one month or more (my location is in Eastern Europe). Last 10 to 15 years we almost have no snow at all. Maybe just one week 5 – 10 centimeters and that’s it. No more winter fun for us. If I want to go skiing then I must go at least 500 meter higher in the mountains. Attached photo was taken few days ago, and you can see clear evidence of what I’m saying … yes you are right… there is no snow… you can see primrose in the middle of the winter (picture was taken one week ago).

ACTION CALL 001: PLANT 3 TREES
Forest is a great system that soaks up CO2 and produces Oxygen. We are producing many CO2 with our cars, lightings, cooking, heating and also breathing. It is calculated that an average tree (calculation based on total life cycle of one tree for the 40 years period) could absorb on average around 20kg/year of CO2. An average human is producing much more CO2/year with his activities than on tree could absorb … 400 to 500 times more per year (cars, heating, cooking, food,…). It is a heavy job to plant 400 trees for just one person, but we could start at the beginning and plant 3 trees and offset some carbon emissions right now. Remember, trees are also good for fresh air, shadows and they are working for us 24hours/day.
- ACTION CALL 001: Join me and plant 3 trees. Let’s say one tree is for you, on for your parents and one for your children.
- If you have planted 3 trees or more, please add a comment to this post and tell others about your action.
- If you can’t perform this action you could easily support this action in other ways.
- Would you like to know more about my goal?
Thank you for supporting my anti global warming, anti climate change and anti nature destruction actions.

Peak oil production, when and what to do next
According to some recent studies world oil production will soon reach so called “peak oil production”. This is a point where oil production declines year after year. There are also some strong indications that oil production (world) is already there, near the peak or already after it. At the moment I’m reading two reports about this, one is from International Energy Agency and another from Energy Watch Group. They are contra dictionary. The first one is quite optimistic and one could understand that we should not worry too much about oil until 2030. Second one is reporting that it is possible we have already reached peak oil production and oil production will decline until 2020 and even more decline until 2030. So… what to believe? I think it is not a question of belief, we should act like we are 100% that we will run out of oil until 2020. Act green and stay in touch.

GOAL POST: My goal is to STOP GLOBAL WARMING, CLIMATE CHANGE AND NATURE DESTRUCTION DERIVED FROM MANKIND ACTIVITIES
So What am I doing here? I WANT TO STOP GLOBAL WARMING, CLIMATE CHANGE AND NATURE DESTRUCTION DERIVED FROM MANKIND ACTIVITIES. I WILL MAKE THIS GOAL REAL USING THE INTERNET. I know, I know... you might say it sounds impossible and stupid, but I believe this is possible. Some scientists say that global warming and climate change is a natural process. Ok I believe that's true, but I also believe that humankind is contributing a lot in this change and is speeding up the process. I know I can't stop natural earth process of climate change, but I believe we all together can stop those mankind activities contributing and speeding up the climate change. I will launch many actions towards my goal on the internet and in the real world in next few years. Everything will be published on the internet. No, I will not discuss with politicians, I will not go to streets and show posters against big businesses and oil companies, I will not write long posts about climate change how bad it is, I will not have long debates about this hot issue … no this is not my goal… MY GOAL IS TO TAKE REAL ACTIONS AND TO SAVE THE EARTH FOR OUR ANCESTORS AND TO ACOMODATE TO INEVITABLE CHANGES. I think it is time to change our minds and our thinking… we are consumers, we ordinary people have the real power to make a choice and decide (read more in my post what is my belief – Money rules the world). If you see just a little hope in this idea, just a weak light at the end of the tunnel, then please support my activities with your actions here. We can reach the goal and win together. So decide and stay in touch, support my actions with your actions – se how.

Money rules the world
Money rules the world that is a fact and that is a major problem. Politicians and big companies are blinded with money and power they have. They won’t accommodate to new environmental issues fast enough, they won’t take the real actions fast enough. They are just making more profit with some “green orientations” which are usually green only on paper or in marketing campaigns. It is time to make radical changes in way we live, work, travel, eat… if we want to preserve our earth and nature for our children. No politician dares to risk and announce radical changes to stop global warming because he will loose all support, and they usually see only few years period in front of them. That is why I believe we should not wait for politicians, big companies, policies, law and standards limiting CO2 emissions or even trading with emissions. We can make our choice today. We can decide when to walk, when to travel by car, when to travel by public transportation and which car to buy. I can buy four-wheel drive SUV or I can buy smaller car with less than 130 g/km of CO2 emissions … so it is my choice, not oil company’s or car manufacturers choice. It is also my choice to live in big house with 6 bedrooms or in house with 3 bedrooms which will need less heating energy during cold winter days. Of course there are some other things and big pollution factors where we have no direct influence, but we could make indirect influence. I hope you agree It's our choice, we could make a change.
