A lot of people know that the sculptures at Stonhenge are an elaborate Global Warming measuring device. I would like to spend some research money re-building this machine to combat Greenhouse Gas. I need about $25 million. - Alf Newman
We should suck up all the carbon in the atmosphere, compress it into diamonds and sell them in jewelry stores. - Zsa Zsa G.
Every year there should be a day when everybody in the world holds up a vacuum cleaner for a few hours to clean up the entire atmosphere. There would be no more carbon. - from Help! My Planet is Melting!
Laugh until the problem goes away. Everybody knows that laughter is the best medicine! - John Adlersparre

I know, bomb all those coal factories in the other countries. I heard they produce most of the pollution. But we should give them a warning first to run away so that no people get hurt. - James - grade 5, Texas
We should pump potassium nitrate and sulfur into the air. Then go into underground bunkers and see if the atmosphere can be ignited. That will clean up the air real good. The atmosphere is one of the main problems. - Ray
Someone should send millions of black and white pieces of paper into outer space around the earth. Black would absorb the heat and white would reflect it away. Then earth would cool down and there wouldn't be so much global warming. - Tricia W.

LONDON, England (AP) -- British tycoon Richard Branson on Friday announced a $25 million prize for the first person to come up with a way to extract greenhouse gases from the atmosphere.

The Virgin Group chairman was joined by former U.S. Vice President Al Gore and other leading environmentalists as he announced the challenge to find ways to significantly reduce greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.

Branson compared his challenge to the competition launched in 1675 to devise a method of estimating longitude accurately. It was 60 years before English clock maker John Harrison discovered an accurate method and received his prize from King George III.
