Global warming is increased by adding further greenhouse gases to the atmosphere, particularly carbon dioxide and methane. Average global temperatures rose by around 0.75 degrees during the twentieth century. The Kyoto Protocol set a target of limiting further rises to no more than 2 degrees Celsius, but the International Energy Agency now says that this target is no longer achievable.
What else can I help you with?
Why has the temperatures increased?
Global Warming
Is global warming increased by photosynthesis?
No.
What are the global problems of clearing forests and increased gas emissions from factories and motor vehicles?
The main global problems of clearing forests and increased gas emissions are global warming and acid rain. The clearing of forests means additional carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, causing global warming. Increased gas emissions also contribute to global warming and acid rain.
Was there always global warming?
No, global warming is a relatively recent phenomenon that has significantly accelerated since the industrial revolution. Human activities, such as burning fossil fuels and deforestation, have increased greenhouse gas emissions in the atmosphere, leading to global warming.
An increase in average temperatures around the planet is known as what?
Global Warming
What is called global warming?
Global warming is the slow, steady increase in global temperatures. It is caused by increased levels in carbon dioxide and other pollutants caused by things like factories, and transportation.
Are landslides getting worse because of global warming?
Landslides happen because of increased rain softening the earth on the side of a mountain. They also occur where people have removed trees which anchored the earth. Removing trees has an effect on global warming, and one of the results of global warming is increased rainfall in some areas. So there is some connection.
What is a rise in global temperature called?
A rise in global temperature is called global warming. This phenomenon is primarily due to increased levels of greenhouse gases in the Earth's atmosphere, which trap heat and result in higher average temperatures worldwide.
Does a hurricane cause global warming?
No, Hurricane Katrina caused flooding and terrible damage to humans and property, but it did not cause global warming. Global warming is caused among other things by man burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) and putting greenhouse gases into the atmosphere.
How will increased global warming affect the vegetation on earth?
Due to global warming the temp. of the earth is increasing very fast. this cause lot of warm on the earth and the water of the earth is going to an end
What are ways humans cause extinction?
Deforestation, Increased Human Population, Pollution, and Global Warming.
Why will fires increase in frequency and intensity during global warming?
Because the temperature on the Earth is increased.
