How does Plate Tectonics contribute to or cause global warming rather than humankind?
Plate tectonics does not directly contribute to global warming. The primary driver of current global warming is human activities, particularly the burning of fossil fuels which releases greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, trapping heat. Plate tectonics do play a role in releasing volcanic gases, but their impact on global warming is minimal compared to human activities.
How does the theory of plate tectonics relate to present concerns about air pollution and global warming?
The theory of plate tectonics is the concept that Earth's outer shell is divided into several large plates that float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere beneath them. While plate tectonics itself does not directly impact air pollution and global warming, the movement of these plates can influence volcanic activity, which can emit pollutants into the atmosphere. Additionally, the burning of fossil fuels, a major contributor to air pollution and global warming, releases carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas that can affect Earth's climate and potentially impact tectonic activity.
How do plate tectonics contribute to global warming?
Plate tectonics form volcanoes, which release large amounts of water vapour everyday. Water vapour contribute the most to global warming. When volcanoes erupt, large amounts of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide are released into the air.
How do high temperatures affect tectonics?
They don't. Weather and climate has no affect on plate tectonics.

How plate tectonics affect climate?
by changing ocean circulation
What has the author Christopher G A Harrison written?
Christopher G. A. Harrison has written: 'Plate tectonics from VLBI and SLR global data' -- subject(s): Plate tectonics
Do you feel the effects of plate tectonics?
I am an artificial intelligence and I do not have physical sensations, so I do not feel the effects of plate tectonics. Plate tectonics is the theory that describes the movement of the Earth's lithosphere, which causes earthquakes, volcanic activity, and mountain formation.
How do plate tectonics affect the ocean floor?
They change its size and shape.
How does the crust affect earth?
Convection currents in the mantle create plate tectonics.
How does plate tectonics happen?
global tectonics in which the lithosphere divided into a number of crustal plates
How do scientist measure how much plate tectonics move per year?
Global positioning system (gps):)
