Industrialization has affected global warming due to a number of facts including:
- Before the industrial revolution, global warming was minimal and didn't have much affect on the earth. There was a natural greenhouse effect that kept us warm.
- Old and new technology had contributed to the causing of global warming as fossil fuels are burnt and non-renewable resources are used. This is adding 300-million-year-old carbon to the atmosphere.
- People are now using more energy (generated by burning fossil fuels) in their day-to-day lives and because they can!

∙ 12y agoThere is evidence that indicates that airplanes do affect CO2 concentrations. Notably, there was a marked decrease in CO2 concentrations in the days succeeding 9/11, when airplanes were grounded.
Some airplanes emit lots of water vapor, another greenhouse gas, which can be seen sometimes as a contrail (condensation trail), a white streak behind the airplane.
They also drop aviation gas on waterways especially near airports.

What effect did the steam engine have on Global Warming?
The invention of the steam train had a lot of affect on Global Warming. This is because it creats pollution
Concept of math in global warming?
Global warming has a lot of math involved. Calculating the carbon footprints is one of them.
What is a natural effect of global warming?
There are many natural effects of global warming. One of these effects is that ice caps melt in the north and south poles. they melt a little bit more each day, and if you add all that melting up in a year, or even 6 monthes, that is a lot of melting!
Do you slow global warming by putting your litter in the trash?
Littering or not littering would have little effect on global warming. Turning off your lights and computers when you leave a room will do much more to reduce global warming. Littering is an eyesore. It makes the place look bad. It turns away tourists. But there's not much connection to global warming. Littering probably contributes a bit to global warming if a lot of energy is expended in collecting the litter, or it contains recyclable material (paper, cans, plastic bottles etc) which would save electricity if it had been recycled.
What illness does global warming cause?
absolutely nothing.... except if you're in the sun a lot... global warming just melts the ice caps and increase the water level by 40%

What evidence is there that global warming is a myth?
There is no evidence that global warming is a myth. There has certainly been a lot of misinformation on the subject, often from vested interests, but the clear consensus of climate scientists is that global warming is real and that human activities are substantially the cause of global warming since the Industrial Revolution.
What might global warming do to us?
Global warming is the same thing as greenhouse effects. They trap a lot of heat and lets the remaining heat get away into space. Therefore, global warming heats up the Earth making it warmer.
What does CO2 have to do with global warming?
CO2, carbon dioxide, is one of the greenhouse gases. Greenhouse gases trap heat rising from the earth's surface and stop it escaping into space. This is called the greenhouse effect. This is the connection with global warming. We have added a lot of extra carbon dioxide to the atmosphere by burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas), and this build up is causing global warming.
Which continent contributed the most in global warming?
Countries in Asia such as China are currently contributing the most to global warming. This is because they are currently going through an industrial revolution, and have a lot of factories which make a lot of pollution.

What is water global warming?
the big water plants use a lot of electricity

Global warming is happening because?
Earth's atmosphere has a lot of carbon dioxide. When heat from the sun penetrates the atmosphere, the carbon dioxide makes it hard to return back to space. So minimal heat gets reflected. This is what you call the greenhouse effect. The heat gets trapped inside our atmosphere. This is global warming.
How are you responsible for global warming.what do we do that causes global warming?
well there are a lot of reasons that we cause golbal warming. The main one I can think of is every time that you plug something in. I believe that global warming is not being caused by humans. There are just as many scientist saying that it is not happening than there are saying that it is.
