How do firework displays cause global warming?
They don't cause global warming, but they contribute in a small way towards it.
Does CFC's cause Global warming?
Actually CFCs (Chlorofluorocarbons) don't do much to cause global warming. CFCs destroy ozone, and may cause problems concerning the UV rays coming through the atmosphere. Global warming has to do with carbon dioxide levels and temperature.
Will having fewer children help prevent global warming?
Yes, in a small way. The world's population is now over seven billion. By about 2025 it will be eight billion. Every new person has a carbon footprint and contributes somewhat to global warming.
Why does waste cause global warming?
Littering is not a direct cause of Global Warming. Littering causes pollution on the Earth, which can contribute to Global Warming. Global Warming is directly caused by greenhouse gases retaining heat in the atmosphere.no it contributes
How has the sun been affected so far by global warming and climate change?
No, the sun does not move, and the rays are not changing. The sun merely provides heat, not causing global warming. The thinning ozone and greenhouse gases trap the heat and cause global warming. The sun IS causing global warming, but only indirectly. Excessive amounts of carbon dioxide produced by humans, burning fossil fuels, etc are released into the atmosphere and once there, they trap heat from sunlight, keeping it here, instead of releasing it back into space, and thus, raising the temperature of the earth. So, yes it is, but indirectly. Also sunspots can increase the temperature but only while they are active which happens once every 11 years in a cycle.

How detergent can effects global warming?
Using the washing machine for small amounts wastes power.Using a dryer instead of a clothes line outside wastes power.These all contribute to global warming. Laundry itself does not have to have any interaction with the concept of man induced global warming.
How is global warming destroying your icecaps?
Global Warming is the gradual raising of the overall average temperature of the Earth. This seemingly small amount can equate to large effects to the icecaps, melting them. This can cause ocean levels rising.
How are you related to global warming?
If you use electricity, or ride in a car, or drink a can of beverage, then you are, in a small way, contributing to global warming. Global warming is happening because billions of us are all doing the same as you.
Is wind the cause of global warming?
No, wind is not the cause of global warming. Global warming is caused by extra greenhouse gases in the atmosphere because we have been burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) since the beginning of the Industrial Revolution, 200 years ago.If you mean belching and farting, then they certainly add methane to the atmosphere, especially coming from ruminant animals (like cows). However, they are a small cause compared to the much bigger cause of fossil fuel pollution and deforestation.
Which ways of producing electricity contributes to global warming?
Any electricity generated by burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) contributes to global warming. Renewable energy does not contribute to global warming (except in a small way during equipment manufacture).Any electricity generated by burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) contributes to global warming. Renewable energy does not contribute to global warming (except in a small way during equipment manufacture).
How Many scientists don't believe in global warming?
Not many. Most (97% of) climate scientists agree that the earth is warming and that humans are causing global warming by burning fossil fuels and cutting down forests.
Are plants reducing global warming?
Plants reduce carbon dioxide, because they absorb carbon and release oxygen. Yes, they help reduce global warming, because excess carbon dioxide emissions increase the green house effect and global warming. Plants in total consume a small percentage of the carbon dioxide, a known minor contributor to global warming. The bottom line is that plants are a small carbon sink.
Does CFC's cause Global warming?
Actually CFCs (Chlorofluorocarbons) don't do much to cause global warming. CFCs destroy ozone, and may cause problems concerning the UV rays coming through the atmosphere. Global warming has to do with carbon dioxide levels and temperature.
Are refrigerators causing global warming?
Refrigerators usually give out heat, and are usually run on fossil fuel electricity, so, yes, they contribute to global warming. However, they only play a small part in causing global warming. The main causes of global warming are the greenhouse gases released when we burn fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) in transport, industry, and the generation of electricity. That and deforestation.
What can people do to avoid the effect of global warming?
stop using gas cars but that is only a small part of it
How can a Venus flytrap prevent global warming?
A Venus flytrap, a small plant that lives on insects, will not be able to prevent global warming. It will remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, but only a small amount. A huge forest of giant Venus flytraps would be more effective, but unlikely.
