Global warming is causing climate change. The warming is putting extra heat, that is, energy, into the winds and storms. This has caused changes to the Polar Vortex, the cold wind current around the Arctic Circle, forcing it down into parts of North America. At the same time that this is happening, temperatures in Alaska, for example, have been higher than normal. Overall, globally, the world is getting warmer all the time.

What is the reverse change of global warming global Cooling or Global Freezing?

The reverse change of global warming is global cooling, which refers to a decrease in average temperatures worldwide. Global freezing is not a recognized scientific term but can be used colloquially to emphasize extreme cold conditions.


Can a building freeze because of global warming?

No, global warming refers to a long-term increase in Earth's average temperature, causing more extreme heat events. Freezing of a building is more likely due to cold temperatures, inadequate insulation, or heating issues, rather than 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.


Does record-breaking cold weather mean global warming is not occurring?

No, because there are record breaking heat-waves in other parts of the world. This is weather which happens from day to day. Climate is the average of weather that happens over several decades.


Why does global warming decrease temperatures?

True global warming does not decrease temperatures. So, either the model for global warming's effects is hokus-pokus, or global warming as presently claimed, does not exist. Some global warming followers will have you believe that global warming makes the weather "act crazy". If true, then it is not really global warming, is it.

Why is it cold outside when people are talking about global warming?

Global warming refers to the long-term warming trend of the Earth's climate system, which is driven by increased levels of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. While the planet is warming overall, this doesn't mean that every single location will experience warmer temperatures all the time. Cold weather in a specific location at a specific time does not negate the broader trend of global warming.
