If we stopped burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) tomorrow, scientists believe there is enough carbon dioxide already in the atmosphere for warming to continue for many years. It may be hundreds of years before carbon dioxide in the atmosphere reduces to its pre-Industrial Revolution levels (280 ppm (parts per million) instead of the present 400 ppm).
Not many. Most (97% of) climate scientists agree that the earth is warming and that humans are causing global warming by burning fossil fuels and cutting down forests.
They believe what 31,479 scientists believe: there is no man-caused global warming. They all signed a petition saying so. Out of those 31,479, about 9,000 are climate scientists.
Not necessarily, as belief in evolution and belief in global warming don't really have anything to do with each other. That said, a person who believes in evolution is probably more likely to believe in global warming, as they tend to listen to what scientists say, and scientists are the biggest advocates for global warming being real.
There are people who don't believe global warming is happening.There are people who believe it is happening but don't believe that humans are causing it.There are people who believe all the climate scientists who believe it is happening and that we are causing it.
Scientists are warning that if global warming continues then the existence of life on our planet is seriously threatened.
Mainly that Constant Injection of CO2 into the Atmosphere can ACHIEVE ONLY DISASTER.
Scientists believe that global warming is happening to the earth because of the greenhouse effect and carbon dioxide pollution in the atmosphere.
... the burning of fossil fuels, which is adding extra carbon dioxide to the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.

Because it is GLOBAL, not local warming.
There are quite a few people in the world who believe that Global Warming is indeed a legitimate problem. These people have followed scientific evidence. Another answer: There are also many who believe it isn't, including many top scientists. Example: The is no correlation of temps and co2 in the atmosphere, as claimed by alarmists. There has been no warming at all since the late 90's.

Yes. Scientists believe that carbon dioxide in the atmosphere started increasing at the beginning of the Industrial Revolution with the burning of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) in industry, transport and later the generation of electricity.
No. A few scientist knew that carbon dioxide in the atmosphere was causing a greenhouse effect, bit it wasn't till the 1970s that scientists began to worry. It wasn't till sophisticated computer modelling in the 1990s confirmed global warming and a consensus developed.
I believe in global warming because I believe that the data gathered by scientists around the world ofIncreasing temperatures,Rising sea levels,Melting ice and glaciers,And many other phenomena,is true.
