| There are millions of uneducated people around the world. Yet there are not enough scientists to work on the problem of global warming and environmental cleanup. My solution is to turn these millions of people into global warming scientists with a special one week crash course. I think you can learn that online. - Genius Jr. |
| My grandpa used to use butter for everything. Whenever I got a sore, he put butter on it and it seemed to make it better. So maybe there is some ingredient in butter that could be used to clean up the environment? Just an idea. - Art S. in Delta |
| One cause of pollution is not the coal factories but that roads are paved with tar. When the sun shines on tar it makes a chemical reaction called photosynthesis and that produces CO2 and tiny particles of tar that we call methane. Also parts of the road become filled with potholes when the tar evaporates. That’s very annoying. So how do you get the CO2 and tar out of the air? Since baby oil can get rid of tar, that might be the key to the tar part. - Grade 6 at Ridgemont. |
| Today the newspaper had a story suggestion that consumers use cloth bags instead of plastic bags when they shop. I think that’s not good because fruit and vegetables give off CO2 gas and that would go right though a cloth bag. I think the plastic bag would keep the CO2 from escaping. - Leonora and Jimmy |
My friend always tells me to watch this video by Al Gore called “An Inconvenient Truth.” Well did Al Gore every think that it might be inconvenient for me to watch that? But now with that 25 million dollar prize I might just inconvenience myself to watch that.

| Ok, I know this joke. There’s these two scientists who want to clean up the environment. So they walk up to the president,…well they don’t exactly walk up to the president,.. maybe they phone him. So the president says, what makes you think you can clean up the environment? So the one scientist pulls out this rubber chicken from his suit and..I forgot the rest but I will post it when I remember it. |
| According to the National Enquirer, scientists can now make black holes in the laboratory. In the future we may be able to place trillions of these black holes in the atmosphere to suck up greenhouse gas. The black holes themselves would appear to be invisible to the naked eye. - Mrs. Rivers in Pasadena |
