Iv Got A Schwinn Stingray And Im Looking For a Website That Sells Electric motor (Or Petrol Ones That I Dont Need A License For If There Are), That Will Go On My Bike And Bring Me Up To A Fast-ish Speed, Can Anyone Link Me A Website i Live In The Uk?
Cheers
Shut The Fuck Up You Wasteman.
Also Anyone Have any Ideas where I Can Get It Painted Or Powercoated?

Answer
go to sears/get grass cutter engine/mount engine on front fork/hinge it /get large brass cylinder for drive shaft/start engine and when you are moving let hinge down and brass shaft contacts top of tire and its own weight will drive you along/did this 50 years ago/worked then

I have a long question about global warming and I want long answers. Can you stand up to it?

OK, here goes. HOW!?!?!?!?! How can all of you people who get mad about other people polluting the world live with yourselves? Name one thing you have ever done to reduce global warming, and I'm not talking about getting a hybrid car or anything because just having a car of any kind pollutes, you just like to feel superior. I drive a SUV that gets 15 mpg, and I don't regret it. Yes, the world is getting hotter, yes, the polar ice caps are melting, but, I know everyone will scream at me for this, how do we know it isn't a natural thing? I'm not pretending to be an expert or anything, I don't know the first thing about carbon emmisions, but those scientists who say cows release more methane than cars are probably right. So I think this is all a natural process. I'm not saying it's good, hundreds of millions of people could die, but don't get all angry about it if you are hurting just as much as everyone else. So my question is: What are your thoughts and opinions on the subject?
Answer
Well that was a lot of questions, so I'll answer them one by one.
What I do to reduce my impact on global warming:
I bought a Prius which more than doubled my car's fuel efficiency. Yes it still pollutes, but a lot less. I also drive it as little as possible.
In order to do so, I also bought an electric scooter to commute to work on the winter, and I alternate between scooter and biking the rest of the year.
I own a small house and have upgraded it to make it as energy efficient as possible. For example, replacing all bulbs with CFLs, got an EnergyStar fridge, smart power strips (smart strips), turn the thermostat way down in winter and way up in summer (right now it's at 60 deg F), etc. etc. My home now uses less than one-third the US national household energy use.
I also try to teach people about the science behind global warming here on Yahoo Answers (I'll get to that later), support politicians who make the environment a top priority, etc. etc.
Basically I do whatever is within my means to reduce my global warming impact.
Cows:
Yes, livestock are responsible for more greenhouse gas emissions than cars worldwide, but not for the reason you think. Methane emissions from livestock account for 5% of anthropogenic (man-made) greenhouse gas emissions, whereas cars account for 9%. When you factor in things like land use change (using what used to be forest or grassland for cattle pasture), livestock account for 18% of anthropogenic GHG emissions.

This doesn't mean it's a natural process. The reason they're considered man-made emissions is that there wouldn't be huge herds of cattle roaming around if we weren't raising them for beef. So another thing I've done to reduce my global warming impact is to reduce my beef consumption.

How we know it's not natural:
There are many basic scientific facts which can only be explained if the current global warming is being caused by an increased greenhouse effect due to carbon dioxide accumulating in the atmosphere from humans burning fossil fuels.
For example, the planet is warming as much or more during the night than day. If the warming were due to the Sun, the planet should warm a lot more during the day when the Sun has influence. Greenhouse gases trap heat all the time, so they warm the planet regardless of time of day. Another example is that the upper atmosphere is cooling because the greenhouse gases trap the heat in the lower atmosphere. If warming were due to the Sun, it would be warming all layers of the atmosphere.

We know it's warming, and we've measured how much:
http://www.epa.gov/climatechange/science/recenttc_triad.html
Scientists have a good idea how the Sun and the Earth's natural cycles and volcanoes and all those natural effects change the global climate, so they've gone back and checked to see if they could be responsible for the current global warming. What they found is:
Over the past 30 years, all solar effects on the global climate have been in the direction of (slight) cooling, not warming. This is during a very rapid period of global warming.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/6290228.stm
http://www.pubs.royalsoc.ac.uk/media/proceedings_a/rspa20071880.pdf
So the Sun certainly isn't a large factor in the current warming. They've also looked at natural cycles, and found that we should be in the middle of a cooling period right now.
"An often-cited 1980 study by Imbrie and Imbrie determined that 'Ignoring anthropogenic and other possible sources of variation acting at frequencies higher than one cycle per 19,000 years, this model predicts that the long-term cooling trend which began some 6,000 years ago will continue for the next 23,000 years.'"
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milankovitch_cycle#The_future
http://www.sciencemag.org/cgi/content/abstract/207/4434/943
So it's definitely not the Earth's natural cycles. They looked at volcanoes, and found that
a) volcanoes cause more global cooling than warming, because the particles they emit block sunlight
b) humans emit over 150 times more CO2 than volcanoes annually
http://volcano.und.edu/vwdocs/Gases/man.html
So it's certainly not due to volcanoes. Then they looked at human greenhouse gas emissions. We know how much atmospheric CO2 concentrations have increased over the past 50 years:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Mauna_Loa_Carbon_Dioxide.png
And we know from isotope ratios that this increase is due entirely to human emissions from burning fossil fuels. We know how much of a greenhouse effect these gases like carbon dioxide have, and the increase we've seen is enough to have caused almost all of the warming we've seen over the past 30 years (about 80-90%). You can see a model of the various factors over the past century here:

This is enough evidence to convince almost all climate scientists that humans are the primary cause of the current global warming.
