Home use is responsible for more than half of the total output of carbon dioxide. Appliances (A/C, heat, water heaters) account for 70% of Home Electricity use, and another 10% by incandescent lighting. Televisions actually account for about 3% of the typical home's energy use.
Pinpointing television use as a significant cause of global warming is therefore contraindicated.
The actual television set sitting there doesn't affect global warming, but:
Television uses electricity that is mostly generated by burning fossil fuel (coal, oil and natural gas). Burning fossil fuels releases extra carbon dioxide into the greenhouse gases of the atmosphere. If you use fossil fuel electricity, then one person watching television increases the demand for power a tiny bit. Now imagine if a million people watch TV!
Radios consume very little energy, and their impact on our environment is very small. Similarly, radio emissions have no discernible impact on global warming. Global warming is caused primarily by the release of carbon dioxide, which humans have been pumping into the atmosphere currently at a rate of 40 billion tons per year.
they make up things
No. The DVD/video/movie of "The Great Global Warming Swindle" is a pseudo-documentary in which British television producer Martin Durkin has misrepresented both the data involved and scientists who have researched global climate.

It is because no matter what the temperature is, it doesn't say anything about global warming. The extinctions tell us how much damage we are doing to the world. Temperatures can change, but extinctions cannot without lots of work and lots of help. We need to stop and think about what we are doing to the things around us and the animals that we are killing when we forget to turn off the tv or leave the light on when you do not need it. You are killing the animals.
well we use phones and TVs and such everyday which isn't helping our envirenmont... and also you probably use a car everyday which causes global warming.. even throwing something away!
actually a person watching tv would be at risk more because they are the on that is around things that be getting electricuted..
simply by watching news on the television you will be able to understand global warming.You can go out also and have exposure to sun.

AN INDUSTRIAL chemical being used in ever larger quantities to make flat-screen TVs may be making global warming worse. Television uses electricity that is mostly generated by burning fossil fuel (coal, oil and natural gas). So people watching television are probably adding some carbon dioxide to the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, contributing to global warming and climate change.

Global TV but I'm not watching it, it's boring
Global warming theory is a lie and cars are not destroying the environment. <<>> Global warming is happening and the oil companies spend a lot of money on TV commercials to claim it isn't happening.
