1 00:00:05,44 --> 00:00:09,78 Spare the air Bay Area was made possible by the Bay Area Air Quality Management 2 00:00:09,79 --> 00:00:11,95 District clean air healthy life. 3 00:00:19,86 --> 00:00:24,44 It's going to be the South Bay remember to share their faces with the 4 00:00:24,45 --> 00:00:26,76 transportation and cut back on driving. 5 00:00:37,00 --> 00:00:37,20 Like. 6 00:00:56,19 --> 00:00:56,36 My. 7 00:01:07,27 --> 00:01:07,49 T.V. 8 00:01:07,50 --> 00:01:12,79 I see the Music Show last night. I'm so glad that girl went over that thank you note 9 00:01:12,80 --> 00:01:16,69 my dad just tune into YOUR fairly I didn't get to see who and why you have to turn 10 00:01:16,70 --> 00:01:17,59 a T.V. Off for 11 00:01:17,69 --> 00:01:20,88 a while since when times got the bill in the mail that was shocked about they were 12 00:01:20,89 --> 00:01:26,47 out of energy or those issues and we're going to see. How we're going to make this 13 00:01:26,66 --> 00:01:30,43 hour we've got to make some changes since then spend less T.V. 14 00:01:30,60 --> 00:01:35,32 Shortish hours conserving energy this use those resources that it's so confusing 15 00:01:35,36 --> 00:01:39,79 that's too bad dude last night's episode was great Susan my parents gone all 16 00:01:39,80 --> 00:01:46,75 environmental. He was reading we're reading environmental books 17 00:01:47,21 --> 00:01:52,28 to Joe to remove this which is of the compost day oh you know. 18 00:01:54,34 --> 00:02:01,24 Really I got. Like what Jason Well this morning my dad told me I wish our show to 19 00:02:01,25 --> 00:02:08,11 save water. Was low see you over oh no no 20 00:02:08,41 --> 00:02:15,29 no rock stars. Jason remembers shorter showers saves water and 21 00:02:15,30 --> 00:02:22,29 gas. I know about them to recycle but making my show shorter come on 22 00:02:22,69 --> 00:02:26,24 Sounds like your parents are doing their best to help the environment and spare the 23 00:02:26,25 --> 00:02:30,43 air Jason and they want you to hold their nose again but spare the air talk 24 00:02:31,02 --> 00:02:35,66 problems music and shorter show was going to spread here simple Ever wonder why the 25 00:02:35,67 --> 00:02:39,81 water for your shower gets all warm heated water for shower because when natural 26 00:02:39,82 --> 00:02:44,41 gas the burning releases pollutants into the air shortish our means less hot water 27 00:02:44,42 --> 00:02:49,69 and less natural gas being burnt we say flatter we save gas Yeah Jason spare the 28 00:02:49,70 --> 00:02:52,45 air days are a great way to fight air pollution during the summer in 29 00:02:52,46 --> 00:02:57,29 a really hot days you know when it's clear hot and not windy that's when air 30 00:02:57,30 --> 00:03:01,87 pollutants get trapped near the ground which is why it's Smaug OK I get it but how 31 00:03:01,88 --> 00:03:02,97 do you explain my loan to 32 00:03:02,98 --> 00:03:09,74 a mobile broker. Germany worried that something else you're letting all the 33 00:03:09,75 --> 00:03:16,71 cold air out if you open their fridge or eat your cold right. And 34 00:03:16,81 --> 00:03:21,51 where their room goes into the fridge their bread reader has to pump on 35 00:03:21,52 --> 00:03:28,15 a warmer out in order for it to say call its home about that and. I get it but how 36 00:03:28,16 --> 00:03:32,21 do you explain this we're thinking of more kids like you guys who will suffer from 37 00:03:32,26 --> 00:03:37,79 this snow it takes long to get to the field snarl have to get renew soon. All right 38 00:03:37,80 --> 00:03:44,11 everybody C'mon get the car. And don't forget to put your seat belt on. 39 00:03:47,83 --> 00:03:53,11 Carpool in this market other kids from having their parents driving Carcer big 40 00:03:54,04 --> 00:04:01,03 contributor to watch. But even yesterday when I asked my parents do. We 41 00:04:01,04 --> 00:04:01,96 run to school. 42 00:04:10,89 --> 00:04:14,52 Yeah Gene I remember you were pretty wiped when you walk into class it's just 43 00:04:14,53 --> 00:04:19,76 getting really hard trying to adjust my trying. To making the planet my future 44 00:04:19,77 --> 00:04:24,72 grandkids my grandkids. Don't you remember. 45 00:04:26,72 --> 00:04:31,99 There was me and I there it's pretty you welcome to the tech today we're going to 46 00:04:32,00 --> 00:04:35,77 talk about global warming as you know over the last fifty one hundred years the 47 00:04:35,78 --> 00:04:40,00 earth temperatures have been rising and scientists have determined that the warming 48 00:04:40,01 --> 00:04:44,61 temperatures are related to increases in greenhouse gases that are caused by human 49 00:04:44,62 --> 00:04:49,66 activities in particular the burning of fossil fuels can release carbon dioxide 50 00:04:49,95 --> 00:04:54,24 which is the heat trapping gas and just like at home when you put 51 00:04:54,25 --> 00:04:59,12 a blanket on and you get warmer at night the Earth's carbon dioxide in the 52 00:04:59,13 --> 00:05:03,36 atmosphere acts to trap the Earth's heat and that's responsible for keeping the 53 00:05:03,37 --> 00:05:08,03 planet nice and warm but for example if you were to put ten blankets on tonight 54 00:05:08,65 --> 00:05:09,00 you'd be 55 00:05:09,01 --> 00:05:12,84 a lot warmer than you were normally Well the same thing with the earth if we have 56 00:05:12,85 --> 00:05:16,87 a lot more greenhouse gases in the atmosphere that causes the planet to be extra 57 00:05:16,88 --> 00:05:20,45 warm these changes that we've seen over the last fifty or one hundred years is what 58 00:05:20,46 --> 00:05:26,63 we call global warming. Yes that's going to back down well the way the first 59 00:05:26,64 --> 00:05:31,04 temperature rise affects us is that it's going to cause sea levels to rise it's 60 00:05:31,05 --> 00:05:34,79 also going to cause changes in weather patterns so we expect to see more droughts 61 00:05:34,80 --> 00:05:39,35 and more flooding and we also expect to see changes in where we have access to 62 00:05:39,36 --> 00:05:43,35 water and where we can grow crops and these are all things that are obviously very 63 00:05:43,36 --> 00:05:47,74 important for us so these changes that we see happening right now. Or something 64 00:05:47,75 --> 00:05:53,12 that we really want to study quite carefully. Yes how can we help it is. 65 00:05:54,50 --> 00:05:57,80 Well good question and there's lots of things we can do to help reduce global 66 00:05:57,81 --> 00:06:02,05 warming but the center idea behind it is to reduce the amount of energy that's 67 00:06:02,06 --> 00:06:07,57 being used so reducing the amount of fuel use and in terms of your automobile 68 00:06:07,85 --> 00:06:14,38 reducing electricity and also reducing waste. What about recycling recycling is 69 00:06:14,39 --> 00:06:17,22 something that's obviously very important because when you recycle 70 00:06:17,23 --> 00:06:22,79 a glass or plastic or ten or aluminum you don't have to go and reproduce the new 71 00:06:22,83 --> 00:06:24,90 raw materials that take 72 00:06:24,91 --> 00:06:28,89 a lot of energy to make so every time you recycle paper for example they don't have 73 00:06:28,90 --> 00:06:29,39 to cut down 74 00:06:29,40 --> 00:06:33,33 a tree they can use recycled paper and that's going to reduce the amount of heat 75 00:06:33,34 --> 00:06:37,36 trapping gases that go into the atmosphere but after you read how there's lots of 76 00:06:37,37 --> 00:06:40,32 other things you can do to help and sort of driving a car you can ride 77 00:06:40,33 --> 00:06:46,55 a bicycle you can walk those are ways that you can save gas at home you can try to 78 00:06:46,56 --> 00:06:49,28 reduce the amount of literacy being used turn off the T.V. 79 00:06:49,29 --> 00:06:53,54 And computer when they're not or even take a shorter shower because taking 80 00:06:53,55 --> 00:06:57,64 a shorter shower not only reduces the amount of water that you use but it also 81 00:06:57,65 --> 00:07:01,24 reduces the energy that's required to heat the water and that's going to reduce the 82 00:07:01,25 --> 00:07:04,40 carbon for Finally you might even think about planting 83 00:07:04,41 --> 00:07:08,74 a garden because if you were to plant and grow some tomatoes the summer then 84 00:07:08,75 --> 00:07:13,84 a factory that was growing tomatoes wouldn't have to grow the package them and 85 00:07:13,85 --> 00:07:18,03 transport them to the grocery store and transfer them to your home so again you'd 86 00:07:18,04 --> 00:07:22,92 be reducing the carbon footprint there. Even your parents know something about 87 00:07:22,93 --> 00:07:29,61 protecting the environment and they may even go on the field. I guess. Oh wait I 88 00:07:29,62 --> 00:07:34,88 get it burning fossil fuels makes energy to heat my showers the only common oxide 89 00:07:34,89 --> 00:07:36,63 releases are huge Lobal Warming. 90 00:07:55,40 --> 00:07:59,27 Well maybe you guys are right course for right we're all going to want to cleaner 91 00:07:59,28 --> 00:08:03,36 and healthier planet and good air in the future so we need to do what we can right 92 00:08:03,37 --> 00:08:07,96 now every day now for the other day. We got a check of the 93 00:08:07,97 --> 00:08:13,92 a culture there with superheroes and. Yeah superhero. 94 00:08:19,91 --> 00:08:24,09 The eco squad is here to save your future to show you ways to save water and energy 95 00:08:24,10 --> 00:08:28,10 to the cycle and reduce your carbon footprint it goes God time to save the planet 96 00:08:28,14 --> 00:08:33,93 let's go to. Compact fluorescent light bulbs or C.F.L. 97 00:08:33,94 --> 00:08:38,64 Bulbs use seventy five percent less energy than indefinitely turning your 98 00:08:38,65 --> 00:08:42,21 thermostat down the winter and up in the summer is one of the easiest ways to 99 00:08:42,22 --> 00:08:47,49 conserve electricity and natural gas. Another way to save electricity is to turn 100 00:08:47,50 --> 00:08:52,76 off the lights when you leave the room. If one of your choice is to water the yard 101 00:08:52,89 --> 00:08:57,02 then do it in the early morning so that there won't be so much evaporation from the 102 00:08:57,03 --> 00:09:02,51 sun even when the more water for the plant here's more about water did you know 103 00:09:02,52 --> 00:09:05,90 that by using your own water containers you can keep the plastic out of the 104 00:09:05,91 --> 00:09:12,84 landfill out of the jury site so it's better to use the. People in the 105 00:09:12,85 --> 00:09:13,53 US through 106 00:09:13,54 --> 00:09:19,38 a wait to play by the million plastic bottles per hour only twenty seven percent of 107 00:09:19,39 --> 00:09:24,40 bottles are recycled that means the rest goes to landfill those little bottles are 108 00:09:24,41 --> 00:09:29,75 big polluters and try to recycle newspaper paper and plastic or use it over if you 109 00:09:29,76 --> 00:09:31,27 can do for 110 00:09:31,28 --> 00:09:36,41 a family can handle it by making it last products will save energy water the raw 111 00:09:36,42 --> 00:09:41,75 materials and recycling good stuff from getting thrown away. One ton of recycled 112 00:09:41,76 --> 00:09:46,87 paper pulp saves seventeen trees seven thousand dollars of water and three injured 113 00:09:46,87 --> 00:09:53,58 . Ninety dollars of oil. That's the barbecue scene let's see if Nicole can handle 114 00:09:53,59 --> 00:09:57,72 it Uncle Josh do you know it is bad here day and you should be using lighter fluid 115 00:09:57,73 --> 00:10:03,45 for the barbecue what was good well barbecue fluid has high levels of hazardous 116 00:10:03,46 --> 00:10:07,81 materials that are harmful to human health well so we can't barbecue one for the 117 00:10:07,82 --> 00:10:13,31 early days yeah you can but it's not good news like how using the charcoal would be 118 00:10:13,32 --> 00:10:17,82 like that my guys with me had do it the oscillator for me I would show me how it's 119 00:10:17,83 --> 00:10:22,54 done here. But to get. 120 00:10:25,71 --> 00:10:29,50 There on top. Then you're going to travel with me. 121 00:10:35,36 --> 00:10:38,89 And you light it and let it burn into the trees right there make so much sense. 122 00:10:39,95 --> 00:10:43,95 It's an accomplished. Yeah I'll take 123 00:10:43,96 --> 00:10:50,37 a hot dog. A dreamy really nice letter writer like 124 00:10:50,59 --> 00:10:51,25 Yasser 125 00:10:51,26 --> 00:10:59,31 a little higher up the culture might be. Like the old her. Each 126 00:10:59,31 --> 00:11:02,22 . Time I was told. 127 00:11:08,71 --> 00:11:10,83 You got some person talking not just 128 00:11:11,39 --> 00:11:16,58 a car sold because of course the shooting be off like guess why she says this is 129 00:11:16,59 --> 00:11:20,94 important we conserve energy I'm going all about this and science class we have to 130 00:11:20,95 --> 00:11:22,67 do whatever we can every day to make 131 00:11:22,68 --> 00:11:27,07 a healthier greener climate rule moment Dad told us about saving energy and making 132 00:11:27,08 --> 00:11:29,31 or lectured to North Korea to. 133 00:11:38,08 --> 00:11:42,68 See look last month three years six hundred thirty six school hours for this month 134 00:11:42,69 --> 00:11:48,59 we use five hundred seventy one kilowatt hours. Difference that means regime to us 135 00:11:48,60 --> 00:11:53,23 and she and mom doesn't have to pay so much so helping save energy and make 136 00:11:53,24 --> 00:11:57,26 a clear plan there is not just about the money you know cool you want to go it's 137 00:11:57,27 --> 00:12:00,67 a person sucker OK for me just like to go out of 138 00:12:00,68 --> 00:12:06,76 a lot with you.
