this current warming trend started right around ten thousand years ago, according to glacial samples from Lake Vostok. There have been minor cooling periods during this time, such as the cooling period of the mini ice age in the 1800's, but the overal trend has been upward. In terms of total warming, we have seen about 11 degrees C of total warming over the past ten thousand years.

How much will earth heat up in the future?
According to scientists and NASA the Earth has warmed up 1 degree in the past 100 years with an increasing rate of 2.86%.
What would happen to both night and day if the earth took twice as long to spin on its axis?
Days and nights would be twice as long, obviously. The slower rotation would have impacts on the weather, much of which is driven by the Earth spinning. Days would be warmer and nights cooler, for example, because each spot on the Earth would have twice as long in the sunshine to heat up, with twice as long at night for heat to radiate away.
How much bigger is mercury than earth?
Mercury is much smaller than earth.
How much water does earth have on it?
66.6%
Why is Jupiter's weather simpler than Earth's?
Because the education is much better on earth.
How much will earth heat up in the future?

What is the surface of earth is much more effectively warmed by this type of heat transfer than the atmosphere?
The surface of the Earth is more effectively warmed by radiation heat transfer than by conduction or convection. This is because radiation from the sun can penetrate the atmosphere and reach the Earth's surface, where it is absorbed and converted into heat. Conduction and convection play a role in redistributing this heat throughout the atmosphere.
How long does earth have until its nonexistant?
probly not much longer
If earth has warmed and cooled throughout history what makes scientists think that humans are causing global warming now?
It is because the polar icecaps are melting. Also because we are using too much energy.
How long do snakes need sun?
They really do not need that much at all. In the wild, they will bask on a sun-warmed rock and absorb the heat from that in lieu of sunbathing. Snakes like to stay hidden in their environment, and exposing themselves for long makes them a target for predators.
Why is the earth divided into long units of time?
So you can understaned it much more better and think about it!
How much is 1 earth year?
One Earth year is approximately 365.25 days long. It is the time it takes for the Earth to complete one orbit around the Sun.
What is the length of a hour on NEPTUNE?
An hour on Neptune is approximately 16.1 Earth hours long. Neptune has a longer rotational period compared to Earth, which is why its days are much longer.
Does Saturn's day feel long?
Probably not. While the longer orbit of Saturn means that its "year" is 29.6 times as long as Earth's, its "day" is much shorter, only about 10 1/2 Earth hours. The planet is much larger than Earth, but spins very much faster. (In its dense atmosphere, the clouds spin a bit more slowly nearer to the poles.)
How do you know if you overfill your antifreeze reservoir?
Once your vehicle is warmed up, if you have antifreeze coming out of the overflow you have too much in your radiator.
What is the name for the periods of time where the Earth has been much colder?
The periods of time where the temperature of the Earth has been much colder then traditional times are referred to as ice ages. It is a long term reduction in the temperature of the Earth resulting in the expansion of the polar ice caps.
How has nuclear fusion always warmed the earth from the inside?
Much of the heat in the core of the Earth is residual from heat created billions of years back, and some of this was created in fusion reactions in stars. There are other nuclear actions at work in the core of the Earth, however. The more important of these is nuclear decay, which is what most radioactive atoms undergo. This releases energy in the form of heat, which is the trapped underground until it can escape - a very long time. Less commonly, some isotopes, most notably uranium-235, undergo fission. This is a much more energetic process, but is not common because there is not much of this isotope around.
