Why are kids being taught that global warming is a fact in school when it is an unproven theory at best?
There are two views on whether global warming is real: the view of the overwhelming majority of climate scientists and the views of non-scientists. Most children are being taught the scientific view of global warming, which is that global warming is really happening. After all, by the time many of them are adults, they will have to cope with some of the problems expected to occur as a result of global warming.
Do all scientists believe there is a link between human activity and global warming?
As with all issues, not ALL scientists believe in the link between human activity and global warming. However, the majority of scientists feel that the evidence for global warming is adequate to prove its existence. The majority of scientists who reaffirm the theory of global warming believe there is a link between climate and human activity. According to the Union of Concerned Scientists, "The Fourth Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) states: it is a greater than a 90 percent certainty that emissions of heat-trapping gases from human activities have caused "most of the observed increase in globally averaged temperatures since the mid-20th century." "
How do views on the causes of global warming differ among scientists and people?
Among average people, most believe global warming is real and manmade, some believe it is a hoax created by the green energy industry and environmentalists, and a few think it is real, but not caused by us. The statistics prove it is real. I am personally quite sure that any climate scientist who claims global warming is not real or not caused by the burning of fossil fuels is lying on behalf of the companies who sell fossil fuels.
What are McCain's views on global warming?
He thinks it's a good thing.
Are John Coleman's ideas on global warming considered sound science?
John Coleman's ideas on global warming are not considered sound science by the mainstream scientific community. The overwhelming consensus among climate scientists is that human activities, such as burning fossil fuels, are the primary driver of global warming. Coleman's views often rely on cherry-picked data and are not supported by peer-reviewed research.
What is the christians view of global warming?
There are many different views from different churches and Chritian organizations
What do scientists that say global warming is not man-made believe?
It is in the nature of scientists that they rarely agree on anything. Scientific reputations and careers are not made by agreeing with the general consensus but by disagreeing and by finding credible reasons for disagreeing. Nevertheless, relatively few research scientists say that global warming is not at least substantially caused by human activities, although only around 47 per cent of economic geologists (typically employed by oil companies and the like) say they believe that global warming is man-made. One scientist who doubted the consensus of climate scientists was a Physics Professor, Richard Muller. As a long-time critic of government-funded climate studies, he believed that the reality of global warming was exaggerated as a result of errors such as insufficient adjustment for the 'urban island effect'. With the Berkeley Earth Surface Temperature project at the University of California, he set out to address what he called "the legitimate concerns" of sceptics. But Professor Muller unexpectedly told a congressional hearing the work of the three principal groups that have analysed the temperature trends underlying climate science is "excellent ... We see a global warming trend that is very similar to that previously reported by the other groups." Professor Muller acknowledged that previous studies accounted for the urban effect. "Did such poor station quality exaggerate the estimates of global warming?" he asked in his written testimony. "We've studied this issue, and our preliminary answer is no." Those scientists who have expressed views that still query the conclusions of climate scientists do so not so much because they believe there is evidence against those conclusions, but because they believe they should wait for further evidence before committing to those conclusions.
What are Christians' views on global warming?
There are probably as many views as there are Christians. The only directive supplied by the Church was this: Pope John Paul II and Benedict XVI both urged that the Faithful not waste the resources of the planet, especially those which are needed by the poor or needy. Christians should be good stewards of God's planet and only consume what they need and to avoid excesses which may damage the planet in which we all live. I am certain that most of the scientists who set up the theory of global warming are Christians.
Why is the government spending so much money on war when there is problems with global warming?
There is no real objective answer to this question. Just peoples views. Some believe the war is more important, some don't. If you believe you know which is more important, run for a government position that will enable you to change what is going on.
Who was Al Gore's college professor who influenced Al Gore's views on Global Warming?
Roger Revelle, a professor of oceanography at Harvard University, greatly influenced Al Gore's views on global warming. Revelle published research on the impact of rising CO2 levels on climate change, which inspired Gore to become an advocate for environmental issues.
What point will people believe global warming is an issue?
People have different beliefs and thresholds for when they see global warming as an issue. Generally, widespread public concern tends to increase when there are visible impacts, such as extreme weather events, rising sea levels, or scientific reports highlighting the seriousness of the problem. Additionally, increased awareness through education, media coverage, and advocacy can also play a role in shaping people's views on the urgency of addressing global warming.
What percentage of Democrats are into global warming?
The concept of Global Warming being real or not is hardly a party issue. The concept has moved away from the science and moved into a very political arena. Both sides take a similar view on Global Warming. They ignore the science and claim that the debate is over. It almost seems like the Democrat party's stand on global warming is that global warming is caused by Republicans. If you want it colder vote for Democrats. If you want it warmer vote for Republicans. This, of course, is not their official position.
