Is it possible that the planet is not really suffering from the green house effect rather the sun’s solar energy is increasing in temperature. The longer a fire burns, the hotter it’s temperature…I remember studying in school that stars eventually burn out…is "our" sun just going through cycles which we can’t really control and the "green" efforts on our part will not stop the green house effect - regardless??

I need help with understanding if these indifidual questions are true or false
True or False
Under all conditions, gases behave according to the kinetic molecular theory
True or False
One mole of any substance has 6.02 X 10^23
True or False
The energy for photosynthesis comes from ultraviolet light
True or False
Most of the sun’s radiation is used to provide the energy necessary for photosynthesis.
True or False
The green house effect depends upon the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere

I know there is now "green" houses but when you build a house, more energy will be used. And the houses are getting so big. People are building on a plot of land outside our house. These are huge houses. Why are people so greedy and get only what they WANT, not waht they NEED! It’s pure noise across the street and they have dug 3 holes in our front yard to put lines underground. They don’t want us going on our front lawn! And TV and Internet has been 50/50 in our neighborhood! There are hawks everywhere b/c their natural habitat is being destroyed! We can’t even see the sun until 10 AM b/c of the HUGE houses! Why are people urging others to get something to be done when it gets worse everyday?

In the movie Bagger Vance, Bagger says the grass on the green will move to which ever way the sun is in the sky making it tricky to read putts. I never thought about this and I don't know if this is true.

A Wind blows across a hill, has done since time inmomorial, that wind is part of the global weather system, so someone comes along and builds a wind farm on the hill, most of the energy is removed from the wind, what effect does that have on the global weather system?
Wave power, many years ago it was demonstrated that wave farms caused or increased costal erosion at a point some distance from the "farm".
Geothermal, taking heat from the earths crust, what will be the long term effect of this accelerated cooling?
Solar, the production cost of photovoltaic cells has been questioned elswhere but what about heat extraction. placing large solar powered boilers in the desert may seem like a good idea but what are the effects on the flora, fauna and geology of removing that heat source?
maybe the sun will go out before the effects are apreciable but has anyone ever done any reasearch in to the down side of "green" energy?
