Today I tried to sign in at Helium. I was able to join yesterday and I figured I had the whole day to create articles. Because it's my first time to submit an article, writing one took me forever. But when I went to helium and...

john_essex You could try starting up a wordpress blog (its free) to practise your writing skills. It would be a good way to advertise your writing skills. Or www.blogger.com is nice and easy to use (and also free). Maybe follow some other writers to learn from them,...

john_essex Yes, PM me a link please. I'm not a writer, but I do a fair bit of writing myself for my websites. When I can afford it I would like to hire someone to write for me as I find it very hard to write good articles. I'm sure that what takes me days to write a...

We could all do with some extra cash and I've been looking into how to make some extra money. I have a spare room in the house and I'm thinking about renting it out, but I'm unsure if I want a stranger in the house. I found this...

john_essex Good idea about growing some vegetables, home grown food is often better than what you get in the supermarket. I actually quite enjoy gardening and I have quite a few strawberry and tomato plants in the garden. If I had a bigger garden I could grow enough of...

I recently had a debate with an old codger regarding the possibility that global warming is somehow a politically motivated hoax designed to help Al Gore. I couldn't believe the things he was saying to belittle the fact that we...

john_essex Oh dear. You really need to get up to date! There is plenty of proof about global warming. Governments all around the world have accepted it. Barrack Obama is well aware of our need to reduce CO2 output. I'll respond to this one discussion, but that's it...

john_essex Yes, I think the more we share and tell others what we are doing then it will encourage them to do their bit as well. I wish that people on MyLot would take more interest in the subject.

john_essex I agree with your comments about being labelled alarmist. I like think most people who understand the issues of global warming are far from alarmists - in fact we are very positive, because what we are saying is that while there is trouble ahead we can take...

Also known as Hubbert's peak, 'Peak Oil' refers to the peak of the entire planet's oil production. As you know, we use oil to do lots of things such as drive and operate most of the machinery that keeps our economy going. It is a...

john_essex The oil willl never run out! That's right, we will never run out of oil becuase there will always be some left in the ground somewhere. The problem will be the cost of extracting the oil. If those last few drops of oil cost $800 a barrel to extract, would...

john_essex I'm afraid to say that your response demonstrates your lack of knowledge on the subject. Please come back for a proper debate once you have some valid arguements from real scientists.

john_essex Good to hear that you now agree that global warming is happening. The proof is there and even the US now accept that its happening. What we need now is good solutions to the problem. I think the only way forward is to invest in green technologies and as...

john_essex You say that the conclusion on the IPCC report is wrong. If you could prove that I think you would be making the headlines! What in your opinion should we be doing? Should we reduce the rate at which we are using oil? Should we use energy more...

john_essex Hi Charmed_one, Yes, good point about reducing our dependance on forgien oil. There are so many other good reasons why we should reduce or CO2 emissions such as better air quality and a more efficient use of our oil resources. No one really know for sure...

john_essex I've read the other article from the BBC, the author is discussing the merits of computer modelling and the structure of the IPCC. Not, disputing global warming. There is no bias towards news from the UK, it's just that being in the UK I tend to read UK news...
