The best case scenario is probably humans. We burn lots of fossil fuels, such as using factories, cars, and even burping cows.

How do trade winds sometimes change?
Trade winds can change in response to the temperature of the earth changing, such as in the case of global warming.
Is Kyoto a possible solution to global warming?
No because the Kyoto protocol assumes human beings are responsible for global warming. This is unlikely to be the case because the earth has gone through numerous cycles of warming and cooling going back long before human beings were a significant presence on this planet. Ever heard of the Ice Ages? There were several. Global warming and cooling are a function of solar activity and people can't control the sun.
How many people have died from heat waves per ton of carbon emissions?
People do die in heat waves and global warming is real, but it is not possible to attribute any one extreme weather event to global warming and therefore it is not possible to say how many have died from this cause and because of global warming. The world currently produces around 30 billion metric tons of carbon dioxide just from burning fossil fuels. In other words, several metric tons for every man, woman and child in the world. No matter how many deaths from heatstroke can be attributed directly to global warming, the number is too small to relate to tons of carbon emissions. In any case, many more deaths have occurred due to floods, hurricanes, tornadoes and other extreme weather events, some of which may have been caused or accentuated by global warming.
You know that there was no global warming when Jimmy Carter was President so who was the first man to start global warming?
One person can't be the cause of global warming. Everyone that rides in a car, uses electricity, etc is in some way responsible. Unnatural global warming has been happening for the last century or so. This global warming cycle started 6000 years ago. Total warming has been about 11 degrees C. The last cooling period was in the 1850's (known as the mini ice age). Since then man has measured 0.2 to 0.4 degrees warming. This warming was predicted in the early 1900's by Milankovich based on our non elliptical orbit. The concept of man adding ghg's to our environment requires that we are adding actual wattage on a consistent basis. Current claims are that we have added 1.3 watts per meter squared. If this is the case, we would have to be seeing a consistent warming affect. Whaqt we see are natural cycles that have not varied in 650K years. Warming cycle? Yes Man made? We do not know, but the current science doesn't prove it and most science experts will not commit either way. The big grant money is currently on trying to prove man does have something to do with it. No warming has been seen since 1998, over a decade ago.
How bad is global warming getting?
Global (one city at a time) CO2 contributions are [on a daily basis] ubiquitous. The projections are getting worse. People are already dying during heat waves and several countries in East Africa have millions affected by drought and famine.
What is a best case scenario?
A best case scenario means the best possible outcome out of a number of choices. This is often used in forecasting success or failure.
Are the greenhouse is noun?
In relation to global warming, yes. In any other case no.
When should global warming be capitalized in a sentence?
No, global warming should be lower case (uncapitalized). It is not a proper noun.
Is it true that you cannot prevent global warming?
Global warming has already started. If we stopped carbon dioxide emissions today, there is still enough additional greenhouse gases in the atmosphere to continue warming for some years. We can prevent the worst case of global warming, but governments have to take serious action first to reduce, and then to ban carbon emissions altogether.
Why do people have to think that global warming is real?
People are free to choose whether to believe that global warming is real, and no one says that they must believe the scientific evidence for global warming. However, those who wish to be informed would note that there is a strong scientific consensus that this is the case. Also, people who accept the reality that global warming is happening are the people who will be able to provide the leadership needed to solve the problem.
What is the difference between worst case and best case scenario of sorting techniques?
good
Case study of Global Warming Depletion of flaura and fauna?
A case study by the World Wide Fund (WWF) reports a decline in terrestrial biodiversity due to global warming. The montane and arctic habitats have lost approximately 20 percent of its local species of plants and animals
How bad is Switzerlands case of global warming?
Void Question--- it's Global Warming, not Swiss and Chinese and American Warmings. If the question is about Switzerland's contribution to emissions, it's about in the western European average, maybe a little cleaner.
Global warming effects of the peoples health in China in Global warming?
Global warming plays some serious roles in China and Japan, as they seem densely populated with human activity many of their areas. Since most areas are already humid, global warming with use of the "greenhouse effect" is pretty much 2x more potent than anywhere else. With this happen, lung disease case will be severely numerous in the future.
Can a melt down be stopped?
Yes by rewinding the causes that encourage melt down ; Carbon economy in case of global warming .
