What is global warming activity?
Global warming refers to the long term increase of the earths temperature. It is directly linked to climate change but is not an interchangeable term for it.
What do you wonder about global warming?
1. How long will it stays? 2. How can we be able to succeed over global warming? 3. What can we do to stop it totally?
What would the average temperature for the earth be if you continued global warming?
Global warming would take a long time for the average temperature to dramatically rise. You would only be looking at another 5 degrees rise in the next 50 to 100 years. That would eb around 15 degrees. That is a very high amount in the context of the whole earth. The polar temperature would rise and the ice would melt. In the next 400 years or 500 years, we could see a bigger rie of 50 degrees or so. This is only if we increase our emissions and not find a way to reverse global warming.
Why does the APC say that it is impossible to predict that something like global warming can happen so long from now?
The American Policy Center (APC) say this because they are global warming skeptics. They believe that global warming is not happening.
How does global warming cause long-term changes in the global temperature?
Global warming is long term changes - increases - in the global temperature.The increases in the global temperature are being caused by the accelerated greenhouse effect. That is, more greenhouse gases in the atmosphere (methane, but largely carbon dioxide from our burning of fossil fuels like coal, oil and gas) capture more of the sun's heat and warm the atmosphere. This extra warming is global warming.
When will there be no more ice caps?
If global warming continues, not that long from now.
How long are you going to last against global warming?
1 day...
Are tornadoes decreasing due to global warming?
Currently scientists are uncertain as to how global warming would affect tornadoes. This is further complicated by a lack of complete, long-term tornado records. So far no substantial link has been discovered.
What is a long-term solution to the drought in Africa?
Slowing and reducing global warming in order to stop climate change.
How long has global warming hit Earth?
We know now that global warming started in the Industrial Revolution, more than 200 years ago, when we discovered and started to burn fossil fuels, which released carbon dioxide (CO2). This is one of the greenhouse gases that are causing global warming.
How long has global warming been a problem?
Since the middle of the 20th Century and earlier.
Why didn't anyone realize a long time ago that global warming would exist eventually?
They did realize, a long time ago, that global warming would exist eventually. As long ago as the nineteenth century, climate scientists began to recognise that if we continued to add carbon dioxide to the atmosphere, average global temperatures would rise accordingly. However, carbon dioxide emissions were still low by today's standards and the scientists felt that this would occur too far off in the future to be a concern for them. It was only in the second half of the twentieth century that scientists began to realise that global warming was underway and that it posed a real risk to humanity within a relatively short period of time.
