How does human activity increase global warming?

Answer 1

1. Humans are burning fuels that put hot house gasses into the atmosphere (more each year)
2. Humans are releasing fluorocarbons exacerbating the situation. (more each year)
3. They pollute the air with acids that kill whole forests of reducing the amount of hothouse gasses being absorbed back into the system. (more each year)
4. They burn down whole forests to produce pasture in order to grow cattle that produce methane another hothouse gas
5. They burn down whole forests to produce charcoal which is then burned again in order to produce fuel for food and heating.

To name but a few

• there are lots of ways human activities increase global warming. here are a few
• cars increase global warming because of fumes
• factories dump waste into the rivers and seas so water becomes polluted
• chopping down trees releases the carbon dioxide in the tree that effects the o zone layer
• there are simple solutions to these problems but we cant seem to help destroying the planet
• We speed the process by pump the carbon from oil well and burn them to CO2. We also affect the carbon chain by over consume of natural resource and affect the carbon balance.

Answer 2

To understand how humans cause global warming, it is important that you are aware of the link between your daily activities and the greenhouse effect. Furthermore, once you understand this, it is easy to see that you have the power to help stop global warming from getting worse. The primary way humans cause global warming is by burning fossil fuels. This increases the amount of carbon in the atmosphere, which leads to an increase in the Greenhouse Effect.

Answer 3

Human activities, such as the burning of fossil fuels, deforestation, and various industrial practices are the major causes of global warming.

1. Carbon dioxide is produced when fossil fuels are burned to produce energy used for transportation and manufacturing.
2. The burning of trees, which is deforestation, is also another major cause of carbon dioxide emission into the atmosphere. And the destroyed trees no longer remove this greenhouse gas from the air.
3. Overall, the increasing number of cars and industries leads to a large fuel consumption and high level of carbon dioxide emission. Then the emission of carbon dioxide, leads to global warming.

• Lots of things like
• excessive logging of trees,
• driving a car that runs on fossil fuel,
• wasting electricity
• throwing away something that can be reused and recycled and last but not least
• factories producing toxic gases that go up into the atmosphere

Answer 4

There is no doubt that human activity could have some additional affect on the normal global warming activity that is occurring. The amount of man's involvement is the key issue. Striking a single match produces some greenhouse gas and also some warming. No scientist could deny this. The significance of this amount though is questionable.

Humans do not so much add to global warming by creating warmth, whether by striking a match or otherwise, but by adding new carbon dioxide to the atmosphere. The human activities that do this are ones which burn fossil fuels such as coal, oil and natural gas, as well as manufacturing cement and deforestation. Scientists have demonstrated the effect of increased carbon dioxide levels on global warming and can predict the effect that these activities will continue to have. There is no longer any doubt that human activities enhance global warming.

Answer 5

Wildfires and bushfires can be natural or caused by human activity (arson). These destroy a lot of trees releasing all the carbon stored there.

Human activities like burning fossil fuel (coal, oil and natural gas), which we do in industry, transport and in the generation of electricity, release age-old carbon dioxide which adds to the greenhouse gases, causing the increase in global temperature.

Answer 6

The human activities that are increasing global warming are:

1. Burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) in industry, transport and the generation of electricity. This burning releases carbon dioxide that has been hidden underground for 300 million years. Releasing it now is putting too much pressure on the carbon cycle, which is only able to remove part of it. So carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas, is building up in the atmosphere, trapping more heat.
2. Deforestation (destroying forests all over the world). All growing vegetation removes carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, releases the oxygen, and stores the carbon.
3. Harmful agricultural practices in cattle farming, rice paddy field and others release methane, a more dangerous greenhouse gas than carbon dioxide.

Yes, absolutely. Natural variation can not explain the changes we are seeing in the global climate.

Answer 7

Human activity gave rise to global warming by burning fossil fuels coal, (oil and natural gas) and deforestation, when we cut down the forests that used to remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.
