What will global warming do to the earth and how will it effect the antarctic from way over here?
Global warming will lead to rising sea levels, more frequent extreme weather events, and disruption of ecosystems. In Antarctica, the warming is causing ice to melt faster, leading to sea level rise globally. Melting ice also affects local wildlife such as penguins and seals, disrupting their habitats and food sources.
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.

Global warming is the name given to the recent (over 200 years) gradual increase in the temperature of Earth's atmosphere.
How do humans contribute to climate change not including global warming?
Humans contribute to climate change in various ways beyond global warming, such as through deforestation, which reduces carbon storage capacity; air pollution from fossil fuel combustion, which can impact cloud formation and precipitation patterns; and land-use changes, which alter local climate conditions and ecosystems. These impacts collectively affect the Earth's climate system in multiple ways beyond just an increase in temperature.
