What is the reverse change of global warming global Cooling or Global Freezing?
It would be global cooling.
What is the cause of the warming of the atmosphere?
Global Warming. Due to global warming, ice in the polar region is melting
What are the reactions of global warming?
The ploar ice caps are melting.
What are some causes and effects of glacial melting?
Cause: Global Warming Effect: Glacier Melting
How much ice melting due to global warming?
ice is melting in a large number ... but not so fast
What is the reverse change of global warming global Cooling or Global Freezing?
It would be global cooling.
What are the patterns of heating and cooling in the atmosphere?
the earth goes through natural cycles of heating and cooling (ice-age and warming.) the thing is that natural cycles take centuries to millennium while the current warming phase is happening over decades- hence the name of global warming.
What is the cause of the warming of the atmosphere?
Global Warming. Due to global warming, ice in the polar region is melting
Why is the arctic melting?
global warming
What is global warming doing?
Global warming is melting the glaciers throughout the earth's surface.
What is the opposite of global warming?
The opposite would be global cooling.
What is the difference between global warming and global cooling?
Global warming is when the global average annual temperature is generally trending upward. Global cooling is when it is trending downward.A:Global warming is happening now. Global warming is not beyond the control of mankind. It is being caused by our dependence on fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) which we are burning to produce electricity.
What are the effects of global warming to the ozone layer?
Global warming is heating of earth. It causes ozone depletion.
What is global warming doing to the world?
the poles are melting
What does the ice caps melting got to do with the depletin of the ozone layer?
Melting ice caps are because of global warming. This global warming also causes ozone depletion.
Will global warming cause global cooling?
Global warming makes the earth hotter, resulting in melting ice caps. In general it is not possible to cool something by making it warmer. Freezers and air conditioners can cool an enclosed space, but only by generating even more heat overall.
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.
