Tolerance: Can We All Agree?
Frank, the agreement mentioned in the title is not an agreement of religion, but an agreement to allow the other point of view to be celebrated in peace, and even in harmony with those of a different faith.

Tolerance: Can We All Agree?

Tolerance: Can We All Agree?

Can Global warming Be Reversed Immediately?
Yes, we must not simply place a sapling in the ground and wish it well. But for groups planting, say on Earth Day, who cannot tend their trees afterwards, it is better than doing nothing. Some will survive, as they have throughout Earth ...

Plants are efficient, but not adequate. They have long helped maintain the proper balance of gases, but are being expected to do more than they can in response to what we are adding to the atmosphere.

blackspanielgallery, Thank you for the practical information and the product lines.

Hi Frank,
I mentioned plants because in periods of the past when carbon dioxide levels were at high levels trees grew faster, and helped remove the carbon. But, it is not at the same pace as is needed. So, greater carbon for growth does help ...

Can Global warming Be Reversed Immediately?
