What is most likely to cause widespread change in the climate on earth?

Volcanoes are a good example of one event that could cool the atmosphere, though it needs to be a huge explosive eruption, usually in the tropics. Another would be a reduction in sun spots, though this only has a minor effect. Finally, orbital variations can cool the earth, though this is at much longer time scales than humans would observe.

Does ozone depletion cause climate change?
Yes, ozone depletion can cause climate change. It causes greenhouse effect which can then cause climate change.
Is global warming a cause or a effect of climate change?
Global warming is the cause of climate change.Climate change is the result of global warming.
How does a hurricane cause the climate to change?
They don't. It is believed that climate change can increase the number of hurricanes.
What is the climate change that produces greenhouse gases?
Climate change does not produce greenhouse gasses. It is thought that greenhouse gasses are a major cause of climate change.
Which change in the climate of a location would most likely cause the greatest increase in chemical weathering of local bedrock?
greater precipitation in the summer

Can hurricanes cause climate change?
No. It's the other way around. Climate change can affect hurricanes.
Why is the ozone layer impotance to the climate change?
The ozone layer is very important to climate change. It's depletion can cause climate adversity.
How can HAARP project cause climate change?
It can't...
True or false Even without pollution climate can change by itself?
False. Climate change always has a cause. It can't change by itself.
Why does the rise in temperature cause our climate to change?
Define "climate". Note the importance of temperature.
