Some of the causes for global warming are:
- Carbon dioxide emissions from fossil fuel burning power plants
- Carbon dioxide emmissions from burning gasoline for transportation
- Methane emissions from animals, agriculture such as rice paddies, and from Arctic seabeds
- Deforestation, especially tropical forests for wood, pulp, and farmland
- Increase in usage of chemical fertilizers on croplands
What else can I help you with?
Does global warming affect the survival rate of polar bears?
Global Warming does affect the survival rate of Polar Bears because Global Warming Melts the ice.
What is enhanced global warming?
Enhanced global warming refers to the accelerated rate at which the Earth's climate is warming due to human activities that increase greenhouse gas emissions. This can lead to more severe and rapid changes in temperature, weather patterns, and sea levels, posing serious threats to ecosystems and human populations worldwide.
Are landslide to rapid changes?
Erosion and weathering typically work over long periods of time, causing change slowly. However, with global warming and loss of native plants in many areas, erosion and weathering are happening at a more rapid rate.
The effects of global warming will be most noticeable at?
The effects of global warming will be most noticeable at the Earth's polar regions, where temperatures are rising at a faster rate, leading to the rapid melting of ice caps and glaciers. This will result in rising sea levels, loss of habitat for polar animals, and disruptions to ecosystems.
The depletion of this natural resource within many parts of South America could seriously increase the rate of global warming?
The depletion of Rainforests could increase rate of global warming. It is because these forests absorb carbon dioxide. In their presence this greenhouse gas would cause global warming.
How is global warming is related to photosynthesis?
Enzyme reaction rate increse with temperature. So photosynthetic rate increases
Is there any ways that the world can stop global warming?
No there is not. Climate change/global warming or cooling is a natural phenomena. We may be able to reduce the rate of change by sensible use of energy.
When did you first learn of global warming?
A/The PBS tv program that visually depicted the rapid rate of removal of Glacial Ice, via Fresh Water Runoff through mostly the underneath of the [soon to be ex-] Glacial Masses.
How is global warming affecting the lives of leopard?
It is not. The past 10,000 years has shown warming, but the rate is slow enough for all animals to adapt.
Does an increased use of solar powered cars contribute to global warming?
No, this would have the opposite effect. It would reduce the rate of global warming. Most vehicles run on oil, the burning of which releases greenhouse gases and causes global warming. Solar powered cars have no harmful emissions.
How is it that global warming is heating up the earth and melting the ice caps but the earth is also cooling down over time?
Global warming is causing the Earth's average temperature to rise due to an increase in greenhouse gases trapping heat in the atmosphere. While there are natural cycles of cooling and warming over millions of years, the current rate of global warming is much faster due to human activity. The melting of ice caps is a direct consequence of this rapid warming, not a reflection of a long-term cooling trend.
Is there miscalculation of global warming?
Yes. I heard scientists are now believing that the Earth is going through a period of cooling, and this should continue for 10 years. But then they said the models they made of global warming SHOULD start being ACCURATE by the time this ENDS. So right now, the models are wrong about global warming, but THEY WILL BE RIGHT AGAIN 10 years from now. :P (the models were always wrong I'm trying to hint at, and will always be)
