911 Emergency! Pollution Solution

In my heart I hurt for our planet the home of every one of us humans and of life as we know it. The fumes that are produced by vehicles and planes and factories are causing global warming. Does it not sink in that our home the place where we all live needs a good cleaning?

Let's keep it real simple and assign a day each year where driving and flying are prohibited? One day a year is all I am proposing.

One thing I remember so well about 9-11 is how blue the sky was for several days and I am sure that it had something to do with the flight schedules being canceled. Imagine if the whole world respected one day a year devoted to not driving or flying how much cleaning of our air would happen it would make us all more aware. This girl longs to see how blue the sky really is and the stars out at night wouldn't it be wonderful to see them? I hope...

Time is flying by and our air quality is becoming more and more of a real emergency. Also think about the cap-n-trade more taxes for the people to endure. This idea would end pollution problems and I am sure it would cost much less than the new tax will who will profit from this new tax follow the money think about it folks do the people need any more tax?
I am hoping that I can get more attention to this article if you are able to donate something towards the cost of buying some advertising it would be greatly appreciated.

Then it's not my imagination that as a child, when we weren't so friggin' global, that the skies were more blue, that the air did smell fresher, that the summer days were not so stinkin' hot?

I like your idea. Where do I sign up?

WOW!! That IS a good idea. I only wish that it WOULD be executed. So much could be done in one day :)

You're so right! It's sad that not many people seem to care or are willing to even try a little something. But I'm hopeful.

You've made such a good point about the sky and air traffic---I never thought of it before, but you are right. What a little break the planet go when the US stopped flying for a few days (although of course the circumstances behind the break were so sad :(

I would have to agree with you on this. One day a year, couldnt possibly hurt anyone. So much could be accomplished within that day to keep away from any type of traffic.

That bad part about it is, that most people in the world of die if they had to do that for one single day. They could not find the time to just take the day off and relax.

Our mother Earth is beginning to show sign of rejection and dissapointment on us ...

Let's hope that we could cool her down

Surprisingly although the skys were clearer the lack of haze from planes caused the average temperature to rise in the US. Yes we need to slow down global warming but grounding planes might actually be a double edged sword.

Thank You all for your sweet comments. I keep forgetting about this blog. It seems to get more comments than all of my other work.

I have been spreading this idea of mine all over the internet for a number of years. I think the concept is too simple for many to grasp. One day out of the year to not drive or fly.
But hey it is an emergency 911!

Unknown said...

Wow thank you for all of the wonderful comments.

I am working on development of this idea. The best way to help me is just tell everyone you know. You can also donate to help me with the cost of buying adwords to help me get more traffic to my idea and you can also link to this post in your blogs and I will also share your links.

Again thank you so much for your input.
