Why is global warming important?

Answer 1

Climate scientists tell us that global warming is a very serious matter and the world has to make firm decisions to try to slow the warming and eventually to reverse it. Some politicians agree, but many lack the political will to press for urgent changes. Many scientists believe it is already too late to stop a 2 degree Celsius rise in temperature.

Already there have been changes.

• Extreme weather events are becoming more common.
• Heat waves have been happening.
• Famine is worsening in Africa.
• Sea levels are rising and the Pacific Island countries are desperate for a solution.
• Glaciers are melting and the rivers in Asia and South America that rely on the glaciers for a steady supply of water for the millions of people downstream are in danger of drying to a trickle.

A:It could (someday) destroy the earth and we would all die and there would be nothing living on the earth! A:Global warming causes an increase and decrease in temperatures in the world. Some cities will experience a hotter climate, some would experience a colder climate. This generally affects the habitat, ecosystem, ocean water levels, etc. In other words, a little increase in temperature would have a disastrous effect for residents living near/on coastal regions. This would mean flooding and also playing an influential factor as to the organisms that survive within a temperature/pH (power of Hydrogen) range, resulting in possible extinction.
because polar bears enjoy life not death in the cold ocean....
The ice caps moderate the temperatures and climate on our planet.

Once they are gone the weather is going to get wild enough that our civilization will likely not survive.

Then the temperature will rise until all life on the planet dies.

Answer 2

Yes, greenhouse gases are very useful for numerous reasons. Firstly, they warm up our planet significantly by trapping the solar energy radiation, which increases the surface temperature. They are non-toxic unlike some gases, so they are not harmful if inhaled. Thirdly, Greenhouse Gases have fairly long lifetimes; therefore they will be warming up The Earth for a while.

Answer 3

It is important to know about and understand global warming so that we can understand the important decisions political leaders are making to abate global warming. Unless we really understand what is happening and the risks involved in allowing global warming to continue, we risk being misled by those with vested interests, who would have us believe either that global warming is not real or that it is real but there is nothing we can do. If we know about global warming, we also understand what we can do to help. We will understand that everything we do to reduce our electricity consumption will help, and we will understand that reducing our petrol or gasoline consumption is another way to help.

Answer 4

Global warming or climate change is not likely to help anyone in the long term.

Answer 5

it isnt.
