An imbalance in what cycle contributes to global warming?
The carbon cycle, when we add extra carbon dioxide by the burning of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) in industry, transport and the generation of electricity.
What fuel directly contributes to global warming the most?
Fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas), and coal contributes the most.Fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas), and coal contributes the most.
Are trains a cause of global warming?
Yes. Most vehicles contribute to global warming if they run on fossil fuels (coal, oil, diesel, petroleum, natural gas), or if they run on electricity that is generated by burning fossil fuels. Burning fossil fuels releases carbon dioxide, which adds to the build up of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, causing global warming.
How do power stations cause global warming?
Power stations contribute to global warming if they use fossil fuels (coal, oil or natural gas) to generate their electricity. Burning fossil fuels is recognised as one of the two main causes of global warming (the other is deforestation). Burning fossil fuels releases carbon dioxide, a powerful greenhouse gas which is accumulating in the atmosphere and causing global warming.
What role does the burining of fossil fuels play?
buring fossil fuels contributes to gloadl warming, and acidic lakes due to acid rain, from the burning in oxygen. it also uses resources
Which ways of producing electricity contributes to global warming?
Any electricity generated by burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) contributes to global warming. Renewable energy does not contribute to global warming (except in a small way during equipment manufacture).Any electricity generated by burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) contributes to global warming. Renewable energy does not contribute to global warming (except in a small way during equipment manufacture).
What is in the smoke that contributes to global warming?
The main ingredient in smoke (from burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas)) is carbon dioxide.
Which gas released from the burning of fossil fuels is the gas that contributes to global warming?
The gas released from the burning of fossil fuels that contributes to global warming is carbon dioxide (CO2).
How does the burning of fuels adversely affect both the natural environment and human health?
The burning of fuel, particularly fossil fuel (coal, oil, natural gas) contributes to global warming and to air pollution. Air pollution contributes to lung disease such as asthma and emphysema.
What substance released into the air by the burning of fossil fuel contributes most to global warming?
Carbon dioxide
How does electric contribute to global warming?
Most electricity is produced by burning fossil fuels, which releases carbon dioxide which contributes to global warming
Do electronics cause global warming?
Any use of electronics uses electricity, most of which is presently generated by burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas). So this contributes to global warming, but does not cause it. Global warming is caused by deforestation, and by our burning of fossil fuels in industry, transport and the generation of electricity, which releases carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas.
An imbalance in what cycle contributes to global warming?

How do electric appliances contribute to global warming?
Most electricity is generated by burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas). This releases carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas which is causing global warming. So the use of any electrical appliance contributes to global warming.
How does the telephone cause global warming?
The telephone doesn't cause global warming. The use of any electrical appliance contributes to global warming, because most electricity comes from the burning of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) which releases carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas.
what groups of people are worried about global warming caused by burning fossil fuels?
Scientists and governments around the world are worried about global warming caused by burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) because of the serious problems it is causing.Oil companies are worried because if we stop burning fossil fuels they will go out of business.
