There is not enough renewable energy (solar, wind, water etc), so people still have to use fossil fuel energy (coal, oil and natural gas), which is causing global warming.
Ordinary people can lower their energy use at home, and they can educate their parents or children, and they can lobby politicians, but until governments make industry pay the true cost of carbon pollution, then global warming will continue.
What else can I help you with?
Is the sun warming up causing global warming?
No, the sun is actually slowly losing heat. Solar flares on the surface of the sun are caused by explosions of hydrogen which can't go on for ever. It is still expected to last for billions of years. Global warming is being caused by the increase of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. More gases retain more of the sun's heat and this is causing global warming.
Is there still radiation from the atomic bombs of World War 2?
no but global warming is killing millions of people worldwide. global warming killed my dog. and manbearpig is global warming's brother
Is global warming causing cancer?
No, there are no suggestions that global warming will cause cancer. The depletion of the ozone layer, which is still being caused by CFCs from last century does cause cancer. Skin cancers (basal and squamous cell carcinomas) and melanomas are caused by the dangerous ultra-violet radiation which a weakened ozone layer lets through.
How can earth be in the middle of an ice age when it is experiencing global warming?
Earth is currently in an interglacial period within an ice age cycle, which means that although global temperatures are warming, the planet as a whole is still experiencing the effects of the ongoing ice age. The term "ice age" refers to a period of time when large portions of the Earth's surface are covered in ice sheets, which is distinct from short-term fluctuations in temperature like global warming.
Do you Know any environmental issues?
A huge environmental issue right now is global warming, and overall depletion of the ozone layer. Global warming is a hot topic because some people still refuse to believe it is actually occuring.
How did global warming affect history?
Most polar ice caps could still be arouynd and the weather wouldn't be so hot out. STOP global warming!
Why Global warming is a serious issue to antarctica?
By definition, GLOBAL warming happens over the entire planet, so no, there cannot be global warming in any one location or region. However, LOCAL warming is not occurring in Antarctica. Temperatures there are colder than have ever been recorded, and they are STILL going down.
Is global warming affecting the climate?
Yes. Global warming is causing climate change, meaning hotter, wetter, drier in different parts of the earth, with storms likely to be stronger. Ice melting is causing sea level rise causing threats of permanent flooding to low lying coastal areas.
Why doesn't California make tourism illegal since it contributes to global warming?
Tourism contributes to global warming, yes, but if the tourists stayed at home, they would still be contributing to global warming by using electricity, transport, heating, and all the other ways we contribute to global warming. Tourism helps the local economy, which is why is still legal. When all travel is banned (except from renewable energy) many tourists will have to stay at home.
Is global warming get better or worse and why?
Global warming is getting worse due to human activities releasing greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, leading to an acceleration of the planet's warming trend. This is causing numerous negative impacts such as rising sea levels, extreme weather events, and loss of biodiversity. Efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and transition to renewable energy sources are crucial to mitigate these effects.
Why doesn't New York Mayor make tourism illegal since it contributes to global warming?
Tourism contributes to global warming, yes, but if the tourists stayed at home, they would still be contributing to global warming by using electricity, transport, heating, and all the other ways we contribute to global warming. Tourism helps the local economy, which is why is still legal. When all travel is banned (except from renewable energy) many tourists will have to stay at home.
How does layers of the earth link to global warming?
Well for example when a volcano erupts (which is a whole other story) it creates a whole load of toxic gases which adds to all the other pollution in the air which is putting holes in the ozone layer which is making the world a lot hotter and is causing global warming. Sorry if this is wrong I'm still in primary.
