Global warming is more dangerous since a nuclear bomb or explosion could wipe out a population of one country or more but global warming can wipe out the existence of all Mankind on Earth.

What is the relationship between the use of fossil fuels and global warming?

The burning of fossil fuels releases greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. These gases trap heat and contribute to the warming of the Earth's climate, leading to global warming and climate change. Reducing the use of fossil fuels is critical in mitigating the impacts of global warming.


Is it 'global warming' or 'global warning'?

The correct term is 'global warming'. It refers to the long-term increase in Earth's average surface temperature due to human activities like burning fossil fuels, deforestation, and industrial processes. 'Global warning' is not a recognized term in the context of climate change.


How do power stations cause global warming?

Power stations contribute to global warming if they use fossil fuels (coal, oil or natural gas) to generate their electricity. Burning fossil fuels is recognised as one of the two main causes of global warming (the other is deforestation). Burning fossil fuels releases carbon dioxide, a powerful greenhouse gas which is accumulating in the atmosphere and causing global warming.


Is global warming a pollution?

Global warming in itself isn't pollution - global warming is the gradual warming of the earth. However, global warming was caused by carbon dioxide pollution in the atmosphere, but global warming in itself isn't a pollution. yes it is a pollution


Do climate scientists agree on global warming?

Yes, the vast majority of climate scientists agree that global warming is happening and that it is primarily caused by human activities, such as burning fossil fuels and deforestation.

How could the use of nuclear energy source be reduced?

By relying more extensively on fossil fuels. The hell with global warming!Seriously, the use of nuclear energy needs to be expanded, not reduced.


Which is more dangerous hydrocarbons or hydrogen fuel?

Dangerous in what way? hydrogen just being burned does not contribute to global warming, but what about 'making' the hydrogen? Does that use other fuels that contribute to global warming? Hydrogen is more explosive if that is what you mean by dangerous. Hydrocarbons burn to form carbon dioxide which contributes to global warming.


Is hydro power cleaner than fossil fuels?

Yes. Hydro power has no dangerous, global-warming-causing emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2).

Which gas released from the burning of fossil fuels is the gas that contributes to global warming?

Carbon dioxide (CO2) is the gas released from burnt fossil fuels. It is the most significant gas contributing to global warming.


Did the accident at chernobyl cause global warming?

No, the Chernobyl nuclear accident did not cause global warming. It probably had no effect on it at all. Global warming is caused by the excessive burning of fossil fuels which releases additional carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas, into the atmosphere. Deforestation has also removed forests that used to remove this carbon from the environment.


Are termites the one of the top 20 reasons for global warming?

Termites are not one of the top 20 reasons for global warming. While they do release methane, a potent greenhouse gas, the main contributors to global warming are activities like burning fossil fuels, deforestation, and agriculture.


What are the cons about fossil fuels?

You loose non renewable resources. And no, Fossil fuels do not contribute to global warming(Biggest lie ever) Research about it, Because its a fact that Global Warming doesnt exist.


How does electric contribute to global warming?

Most electricity is produced by burning fossil fuels, which releases carbon dioxide which contributes to global warming


What is one human contribution to global warming?

Burning fossil fuels.


What is connection between fossil fuels and global warming?

i have no answer for that difficult queston


If we wern't here would global warming happen?

No. Global warming is caused by man burning fossil fuels and cutting down forests. No other animal does that. If there were no humans on earth, there would be no global warming.
