What is the number one thing I should do personally to stop global warming?

Don't mess around. And I can't stop driving because I live in a very hilly middle of nowhere and biking is not always possible. Also very long winters

    Learn the truth and see through the lies.

    That would be much better than moving to where it's not hilly.

    Reduce driving? Get a horse, stay at home, or move to a place with public transport.

    What's the problem with winters? Just make sure you don't use too much fossil fuel for heating.

    But no matter what you do: you will not stop global warming. Let's all try our best to limit global warming.

    Update:

    It you use electricity or fossil fuel for the heating, you will want to make sure that you have a good isolation.

    You may help sequestering CO2: buy charcoal that is made from wood and burry it in the garden. The carbon will be raleatively stable in the ground and therefore you remove it from the global carbon cycle.

    Use less electricity. Eat less meat.

    First of all, replace all your small appliances with ENERGY STAR products. This is a list compiled by the EPA. You can forward it to your friends and raise awareness.

    Making a few small changes in your home and yard can lead to big reductions of greenhouse gas emissions and save money. Explore our list of nine simple steps you can take around the house and yard to reduce greenhouse gas emissions:

    1. Change 5 lights

    Change a light, and you help change the world. Replace the conventional bulbs in your 5 most used lights with bulbs that have the ENERGY STAR and you will help the environment. If every household in the U.S. took this one simple action we would prevent greenhouse gases close to the emissions from nearly 10 million cars.

    2. Look for ENERGY STAR qualified products

    When buying new products, such as appliances for your home, get the features and performance you want AND help reduce greenhouse gas emissions and air pollution.

    Look for ENERGY STAR qualified products in places like Home Depot, including light bulbs, home electronics, and heating and cooling equipment.

    3. Heat and cool smartly

    Simple steps like cleaning air filters regularly and having your heating and cooling equipment tuned annually by a licensed contractor can save energy and increase comfort at home, and at the same time reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

    When it's time to replace your old equipment, choose a high efficiency model, and make sure it is properly sized and installed.

    4.Seal and insulate your home

    Sealing air leaks and adding more insulation to your home is a great do-it-yourself project. The biggest leaks are usually found in the attic and basement. If you are planning to replace windows, choose ENERGY STAR qualified windows for better performance.

    Forced air ducts that run through unconditioned spaces are often big energy wasters. Seal and insulate any ducts in attics and crawlspaces to improve the efficiency of your home. Not sure where to begin? A home energy auditor can also help you find air leaks, areas with poor insulation, and evaluate the over-all energy efficiency of your home.

    By taking these steps, you can eliminate drafts, keep your home more comfortable year round, save energy that would otherwise be wasted, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

    5. Use green power

    Green power is environmentally friendly electricity that is generated from renewable energy sources such as wind and the sun. There are two ways to use green power: you can buy green power or you can modify your house to generate your own green power.

    Buying green power is easy, it offers a number of environmental and economic benefits over conventional electricity, including lower greenhouse gas emissions, and it helps increase clean energy supply. If you are interested, there are a number of steps you can take to create a greener home , including installing solar panels and researching incentives for renewable energy in your state .

    6. Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle

    If there is a recycling program in your community, recycle your newspapers, beverage containers, paper and other goods. Use products in containers that can be recycled and items that can be repaired or reused. In addition, support recycling markets by buying products made from recycled materials.

    Reducing, reusing, and recycling in your home helps conserve energy and reduces pollution and greenhouse gases from resource extraction, manufacturing, and disposal.

    7. Be green in your yard

    Use a push mower, which, unlike a gas or electric mower, consumes no fossil fuels and emits no greenhouse gases. If you do use a power mower, make sure it is a mulching mower to reduce grass clippings (PDF, 8 pp., 1.59 MB, About PDF).

    Composting your food and yard waste reduces the amount of garbage that you send to landfills and reduces greenhouse gas emissions. See EPA’s GreenScapes program for tips on how to improve your lawn or garden while also benefiting the environment. Smart Landscaping can save energy, save you money and reduce your household’s greenhouse gas emissions.

    8. Use water efficiently

    Saving water around the home is simple. Municipal water systems require a lot of energy to purify and distribute water to households, and saving water, especially hot water, can lower greenhouse gas emissions. Look for products with EPA's WaterSense label; these products save water and perform as well or better than their less efficient counterparts. There are also simple actions you can take to save water:

    Be smart when irrigating your lawn or landscape; only water when needed and do it during the coolest part of the day, early morning is best. Turn the water off while shaving or brushing teeth. Do not use your toilet as a waste basket - water is wasted with each flush. And did you know a leaky toilet can waste 200 gallons of water per day? Repair all toilet and
