The title of the paper is “Earths Devastation: Ways of going green to avoid a catastrophe for mankind”

Uncommon green sources
  * The most common thought process of going green is through solar and wind.
  * Solar is a major investment considering we live in Arizona.
  * Any type of positive change to the environment can be considered green.
  * Pesticide control, power plant safety and industrial change have all changed to fit today’s desires.
Pesticides
  * Spreading of chemicals
  * Inhuman for eating, but almost necessary now
  * Chemicals only become stronger
  * Buffer zones have been increased in Utah to 100ft from residential areas
  * $32 billion are spent on pesticides world wide
  * There are between 20 and 200 chemical mixtures within these products
Nuclear power plants
  * They contribute to global warming
  * In 2009, six plants were being sued for CO2 emissions
  * Safer than burning coal but not as eco-friendly compared to solar/wind/hydro technology
  * Requires radioactive fuel, but produces incredible amount of energy
  * Four corners power plant plans to reduce emissions from 48,000 tons to 5,800 tons per year
Industry change
  * Low-rise apartments are   soon to be implanted
  * Air conditioning uses two-thirds of the electricity within the building
  * Building consume 38% of the total energy
  * They also use 68% of total electricity
  * Total of 38% of CO2 emissions are from buildings
  * Proper insulation is also important
  * Thermal imaging has also been integrated within the new change
Wind power
  * Fastest growing – 20-30% growth per year
  * In the 1980’s rotors started out at 20 meters in length, now... [continues]
