10 ways to reduce global warming: 1. **__reduce, reuse, recycle:__** Do your part to reduce waste by choosing reusable products instead of disposables. Buying products with minimal packagingwill help to reduce waste. Whenever you can, recycle: paper, plastic, newspaper, glass and aluminum cans. By recycling half of your household waste, you can save 2,400 pounds of carbon dioxide annually. 2.**__Use less heat and air conditioning:__** adding insulation to your walls and attic, and installing weather stripping or caulking around doors and windows can lower your heating costs more than 25%, by reducing the amount of energy you need to heat and cool your home. Turn down the heat while you're sleeping at night or away during the day, and keep temperatures moderate at all times. By setting your thermostat just 2 degrees lower in winter and higher in summer could save about 2,000 ounds of carbon dioxide each year.
