What is the number of years of data needed to predict Global warming?
Scientists have been using the data over the last 250 years (since the start of the Industrial Revolution) to monitor the rise of Global Warming.
Did global warming bother humans just after the ice age?
No. Global warming after the last ice age was a very slow process, over thousands of years, unlike the present warming, which is happening very quickly.
What is the reason scientists think the tundra has shrunk by almost 20 over the last 20 years?
Global warming is melting the tundra.
Is global warming a rapid or slow change?
Global warming is a rapid change. The earth's temperature has risen very fast in the past 50 years, compared to the very gradual rise over the past 12,000 years, the time of the last Ice Age.
How has earth change over the years or how will it change over the years?
global warming has changed the climate... in the future we will all die
Has there been global warming for the past 11 years?
Yes, the ten hottest years on record have all occurred since 1998.
Is global warming anthropogenic?
Yes, global warming is anthropogenic, which means 'caused by human activity'. Humans began burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) at the start of the Industrial Revolution, 200 years ago. Over the years this has added billions of tonnes of carbon dioxide to the atmosphere, and is the main cause of global warming.
Why is global warming cold?
Global warming is not cold, as it (if it really exists) causes to temps around the world to increase. There was no doubt that the earth went through a period of warming, but now this seems to have reversed itself over the last 17 years. Many areas are experiencing some of the coldest winter temps in decades this year.

An increase in average temperatures around the planet is known as what?
Global Warming
What is the gradual increase in the temperature of Earth's atmosphere?
Global warming is the name given to the recent (over 200 years) gradual increase in the temperature of Earth's atmosphere.
What will global warming do to the earth and how will it effect the antarctic from way over here?
The global warming will melt all ice on Earth and the water level will rise for 50-100 meters, but that will happend in about 100 years
