Is global warming or global cooling happening now?
Some suggest that in the absence of other factors, there should be a slight cooling at the present time. Whether or not this is true, it is being swamped by a quite rapid warming effect. The consensus of climate scientists is that global warming is happening and is caused substantially by human activities. the last ten years were the warmest since instrumental records began in 1850.
What is the difference between global warming and global cooling?
Global warming is when the global average annual temperature is generally trending upward. Global cooling is when it is trending downward.A:Global warming is happening now. Global warming is not beyond the control of mankind. It is being caused by our dependence on fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) which we are burning to produce electricity.
What is the reverse change of global warming global Cooling or Global Freezing?
The reverse change of global warming is global cooling, which refers to a decrease in average temperatures worldwide. Global freezing is not a recognized scientific term but can be used colloquially to emphasize extreme cold conditions.
If global warming is happening then why is the earth cooling?
Global warming is happening and the earth is not cooling. It is warming. 2010 and 2005 tied as being the two hottest years on record, and the ten hottest years since 1800 have all been in the past fifteen years.
What is currently happening to global sea level why?
global warming!
What is the opposite of global warming?
The opposite of global warming is global cooling, which refers to a decrease in the Earth's average temperature over an extended period of time.
Is global warming happening on your planet at the moment?
Yes, it certainly is happening.
What events are happening in America in 2008?
Well, its really hard to explain this. We have global warming, you know, and the global warming is getting more powerful this year. So, maybe, its really weird saying this, but maybe, we might have a very powerful global warming this year, and it ma cause us all to die
What does global cooling do to the earth?
It cools it somewhat. Global cooling occurs after a volcanic eruption when clouds of dust remain in the sky for several days reflecting the sun's rays. This results in a cooling of the atmosphere.
What is worst global warming or global cooling and why?
If global cooling means the gradual cooling into an Ice Age, then that has happened in the past and it has taken thousands of years to happen. The present global warming has all happened far faster, in less than 200 years, and is threatening all life on the planet if we can't stop it. Global warming is by far the more dangerous situation.
What are the patterns of heating and cooling in the atmosphere?
the earth goes through natural cycles of heating and cooling (ice-age and warming.) the thing is that natural cycles take centuries to millennium while the current warming phase is happening over decades- hence the name of global warming.
What is the possible result of global cooling?
There was a time in the 1970s when scientists though the earth might be approaching a global cooling period. This was quickly proved incorrect. But a possible result of global cooling would be more ice caps, larger glaciers, colder winters, cooler summers etc.
