Global Warning

There are many ways to prevent Global Warming.
Here are five that will really help us................
-1.Replace a regular incandescent light bulb with a compact fluorescent light bulb (cfl)CFLs use 60% less energy than a regular bulb. This simple switch will save about 300 pounds of carbon dioxide a year.

-2.Install a programmable thermostatProgrammable thermostats will automatically lower the heat or air conditioning at night and raise them again in the morning. They can save you $100 a year on your energy bill.

-3.Move your thermostat down 2° in winter and up 2° in summerAlmost half of the energy we use in our homes goes to heating and cooling. You could save about 2,000 pounds of carbon dioxide a year with this simple adjustment.

-4.Clean or replace filters on your furnace and air conditionerCleaning a dirty air filter can save 350 pounds of carbon dioxide a year.

-5.Choose energy efficient appliances when making new purchasesLook for the Energy Star label on new appliances to choose the most energy efficient products available.

Physical Properties-can be observed or measured without changing the composition of matter. Physical properties are used to observed and describe matter.

--(Examples)-appearance, texture, color, odor, and melting points

Chemical Properties-that do change the chemical nature of matter.

--(Examples)-heat of combustion, reactivity with water, ability to burn, electromotive force, and flammability
