The climate you currently experience will change as the planet warms.

A:There is no reliable evidence that levels of CO2 above 100PPM have any increased effect in the real world, although the IPCC and other political groups do make this claim.

The bulk of green house gas is water vapor and these levels change change in the atmosphere from 0% to 5% rapidly with no corresponding temperature change. In fact, while the IPCC claims a 6% jump in CO2 over the past decade, the data shows a slight cooling trend. Historically, every cooling trend has started during times of high CO2 and every warming trend (including this one) has started during unusually low CO2 levels. We can clearly see, from actual data, that CO2 follows temperature and never has led it. (see links)

In which carbon pool does most of this extra carbon accumulate?

Most of the extra carbon from human activities accumulates in the atmosphere as carbon dioxide, contributing to the greenhouse effect and climate change.


Scientists who are concerned about increased carbon dioxide in the atmosphere believe global warming is caused by?

... the burning of fossil fuels, which is adding extra carbon dioxide to the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.


What are the change in atmosphere that relate to the climate change?

It is the increase in the levels of greenhouse gases, carbon dioxide and methane that are causing more heat to be retained in the atmosphere. This extra heat is global warming, and this is causing climate change.


How is climate change a problem for the carbon cycle?

Climate change affects the carbon cycle by increasing the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, which in turn intensifies the greenhouse effect and leads to global warming. This disrupts the balance of carbon being stored in the atmosphere, oceans, and terrestrial systems, impacting the capacity of these reservoirs to absorb and store carbon effectively. This can lead to feedback loops that exacerbate climate change.


What happens when greenhouse gases accumulate in the atmosphere?

When greenhouse gases accumulate in the atmosphere, they trap heat from the sun, leading to an increase in global temperatures. This results in climate change, causing more frequent and intense extreme weather events, rising sea levels, and disruptions to ecosystems and agriculture. Ultimately, this can have widespread and detrimental impacts on the environment, human health, and economies.

How can an increase in the atmospheric concentration of greenhouse gases such as CO2 methane water vapor and CFCs impact the global climate?

Because greenhouse gases capture heat rising from the surface of the earth and keep it in the atmosphere. The warmer atmosphere keeps the earth warmer and the heat is extra energy which affects the climate.

What can cause a sudden change in climate?

People start burning fossil fuel. This releases greenhouse gases that build up in the atmosphere. This traps more heat and causes global warming. The warming adds extra energy into the atmosphere causing climate change.

Why are greenhouse gases important to the climate?

Greenhouse gases are important because they prevent heat from escaping the atmosphere.Because human activity (deforestation and burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas)) is putting additionalamounts of the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide (CO2) into the air, the world is warming up. This is global warming, which is causing climate change.

Too much of which gas in the atmosphere is causing global warming?

Too much carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is causing global warming. The natural carbon cycle is overwhelmed and can't move out all the extra gas. The extra gas is turning the natural greenhouse effect into an accelerated greenhouse effect, which is causing global warming.


Are greenhouse gases in the atmosphere valued as fuel?

No. Greenhouse gases in the atmosphere capture heat, and heat is energy, but we have no way of using this energy for ourselves as fuel. This extra energy in the atmosphere will be expended in more severe weather, like storms and cyclones.


How does the atmosphere link to global warming?

Global warming is linked to the atmosphere on multiple fronts:Solar Radiation: The sun warms the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.Atmospheric Composition: The composition of the atmosphere determines the severity of the greenhouse effect. Since the Industrial Revolution we have been releasing more and more carbon dioxide by burning fossil fuel (300 million-year-old carbon). This extra carbon is causing the accelerated greenhouse effect.
