Who were some of the people finding practical solutions to ordinary problems?
Blacksmiths
Can solutions change or separate?
Solutions can be change due to change in volume, temperature, and or pressure. Some solutions can be separated. For example, scientists use the process of distillation to separate a solution of alcohol and water.
Why did the terminology change from global warming to climate change?
People use the term Climate Change to mean all the changes that are predicted, caused by the world's rise in temperature. Using the term climate change means we can talk about the practical things that scientists are predicting. Global Warming refers to the rise in temperature. The earth is warming, and this global warming is causing climate change. The rise in average temperature will cause many varied climate changes, perhaps including reduced temperature in some areas, glaciers melting, sea levels rising, increased number of natural disasters, more severe weather events, and longer droughts.
Who will benefit by climate change?
Nobody will benefit from climate change. There may be some short term improvements in weather in some colder countries, but they will be offset by other problems.
Can anything be done to prevent global climate change?
There are, in theory, several possible solutions to global climate change. Since climate change is, as far as we can determine, driven primarily by excess quantities of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, we can stop doing things (or do less of the things) which release carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. We could extract carbon dioxide from the air (which could be done by fractional distillation) and sequester it in some manner - possibly by some chemical synthesis process that would convert it into solid material, such as plastic. Alternatively we could try to reduce the amount of heat that arrives at the Earth's surface from the sun, either by placing reflective dust in the upper atmosphere, or by putting satellites in orbit which are designed to deflect sunlight or possibly to capture it for photoelectric power generation while simultaneously preventing it from reaching the Earth's surface. There may be other solutions as well, which some creative scientists might devise. The only problem with any of these solutions is that they are expensive. We can prevent climate change if we are willing to spend the money that it takes.
What is climate proxy?
i belive it is some change like a variable of some sort
Why did terminology change from global warming to climate change?
Global warming is happening and this warming is causing climate change. We still talk about global warming, but by using the term climate change we can deal with the practical effects of the warming.Basically our world's weather patterns are very complex, so when the climate warms in one place it may actually change weather patterns and create a slight cooling somewhere else. In addition, there may be some places where the temperature changes very little but the pattern of weather - amount of rain or snow for example - does change. So while the overall effect of what is happening is that the average temperature of the globe is warming, some individual places may actually cool, and others will just experience changes in weather. Thus "climate change" sums things up better than "global warming".
How do you write a sentence with the word climate in it?
You can use it as a noun: The climate in this nation is nice. My geography always talks about the climate of the country that we are studying. You can use it as an adjective: Some think that climate change is a hoax. Others think that the threat of climate change is dangerous.
What is your perspective on climate change?
You may be asked your perspective on climate change when you travel from one climate to another. Some prefer cold, snowy weather while others long for tropical locations.
Does climate change have something to do with tornado?
Climate change may afftect tornado activity in some regions, but exactly how is uncertain. Some areas would experience more tornadoes and some would experience fewer.
Why do some people want to call global warming climate change?
Climate change sounds a bit more benign than global warming. However, the two things are not the same. Climate change is actually the result of global warming.
What are some ways that climate change will cost people money?
climate change will cost money because the better the weather the more work which costes money
