Burning fossil fuels damages the ozone. The ozone keeps some of the sun's heat out of earth. If the ozone "dies" all the sun's heat will come through, and burn earth into a crispy ball of dirt and water.

ANSWER: That's right! Never mind the fact that our sun has been producing unprecedented levels of X-class solar flares, it's the greedy capitalist and his SUV's. Nevermind that Mars is experiencing Global warming, everybody knows how bad traffic can get on Mars. Never mind that the rise in temperature that has everybody squawking like a bunch of chicken littles amounts to a 1% rise in temperature. Everyday when the sun comes out people experience anywhere from a 30 to 70% increase in warmth and manage to make it through the day with no complaints. But 1 little % over the past one hundred years and suddenly man is a plague upon the Earth. Aren't you still afraid that the predictions about AIDS will finally prove true and heterosexuals will be the new intravenous drug users? Don't you think our cell phones will give us all inoperable cancer and we won't have to worry about global warming? Or maybe you just have an eye on my SUV and you don't like my asking price.

Is greenhouse effect is the other name of global warming?

Strictly speaking there is no other name for global warming."The whole earth heating up" might be another name.Global warming is causing climate change, so many people think they are both the same, so they say:"Climate change is another name for global warming", but they are not really the same.


Do Mexicans cause global warming?

Many different factors contribute to the damage that is done to the atmosphere and every industrialized country contributes somewhat. Mexico is known more for it's air pollution then for cause global warming.


What are misconceptions about global warming?

Global warming is not important.Global warming isn't happening.Global warming is happening but it's not our fault.Global warming is happening but we can't do anything about it.Scientists are not sure about global warming.


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 could people cause global warming?

People can contribute to global warming by burning fossil fuels for energy, which releases greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. Deforestation, agriculture, and industrial processes also release greenhouse gases. As these gases trap heat in the atmosphere, they cause temperatures to rise and contribute to global warming.

Are there skeptics of global warming?

There are people who don't believe global warming is happening.There are people who believe it is happening but don't believe that humans are causing it.There are people who believe all the climate scientists who believe it is happening and that we are causing it.


What do people believe about climate changes and global warming?

People believe that man is causing global warming and climate change by burning fossil fuels and cutting down the forests of the world.Other people believe that global warming is a natural event and man is not causing it.Most believe that it is partially a natural issue that man is having some unknown affect on as well. This is where most scientists fall.Other people believe that global warming is not happening at all.


Can Neptune get global warming?

Global warming is not natural, it is caused by people. Since there aren't people on Neptune, it cannot have global warming.


Why are people still causing global warming?

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.


How could you alert people about fossil fuel burning?

By explaining how it releases extra carbon dioxide which is causing global warming.

Are people causing the rising sea level in Australia?

Global warming, caused by people (well, that's the overwhelming scientific opinion) is causing raised sea levels everywhere, including Australia.


How does global warming have an impact on barrier islands?

Global warming can impact barrier islands by causing sea levels to rise, leading to increased erosion and flooding on the islands. Higher temperatures can also contribute to more frequent and severe storms, which can further worsen erosion and damage to the islands' ecosystems. Additionally, global warming can alter habitats and shift animal populations, affecting the delicate balance of life on barrier islands.


How have global warming and ozone depletion impacted the people and the environment of Oceania?

global warming and ozone depletion is causing the oceans to warm, which can bring stronger tropical storms. It may raise sea levels by melting glaciers and ice caps.


What role do cities play in global warming?

Cities and the people in them play a large role in global warming. Heating, cooling and transport in the cities use massive amounts of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas). When fossil fuel is burnt it releases carbon dioxide, one of the greenhouse gases that are causing global warming.

Reaction of many to global warming?

Well I think that global warming is really scary for people. Because people can't really do things. Do to global warming so they have to try and stop it before it gets worse.Mostly hysterical.
