How would glaciers be affected by changes in climate such as global warming and global cooling?

In global warming, the glaciers would melt, then they would flow into the ocean, then they could affect ocean currents, changing the climate, in some areas. And with global cooling, there would be more glaciers, depleting the ocean waters.


Can a building freeze because of global warming?

No, global warming refers to a long-term increase in Earth's average temperature, causing more extreme heat events. Freezing of a building is more likely due to cold temperatures, inadequate insulation, or heating issues, rather than global warming.


What does a tornado do to contribute to global warming?

Tornadoes do not directly contribute to global warming. However, the severe weather patterns that can result from climate change, which is linked to global warming, may increase the frequency and intensity of tornadoes.


If global warming is happening then why is the earth cooling?

Global warming is happening and the earth is not cooling. It is warming. 2010 and 2005 tied as being the two hottest years on record, and the ten hottest years since 1800 have all been in the past fifteen years.


How is it that global warming is heating up the earth and melting the ice caps but the earth is also cooling down over time?

Global warming is causing the Earth's average temperature to rise due to an increase in greenhouse gases trapping heat in the atmosphere. While there are natural cycles of cooling and warming over millions of years, the current rate of global warming is much faster due to human activity. The melting of ice caps is a direct consequence of this rapid warming, not a reflection of a long-term cooling trend.

What is the opposite of global warming?

The opposite of global warming is global cooling, which refers to a decrease in the Earth's average temperature over an extended period of time.


Why does global warming stop healing ozone depletion?

Global warming relates with ozone depletion. The same is true for reverse.


How does global warming affect the hole in the ozone layer?

Global warming is related to ozone depletion. It is also true for the reverse.


What is worst global warming or global cooling and why?

If global cooling means the gradual cooling into an Ice Age, then that has happened in the past and it has taken thousands of years to happen. The present global warming has all happened far faster, in less than 200 years, and is threatening all life on the planet if we can't stop it. Global warming is by far the more dangerous situation.


What is the difference between global warming and global cooling?

Global warming is when the global average annual temperature is generally trending upward. Global cooling is when it is trending downward.A:Global warming is happening now. Global warming is not beyond the control of mankind. It is being caused by our dependence on fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) which we are burning to produce electricity.

How can erupting volcanoes lead to global warming and global cooling?

The Scientific term for this is EJECTA. Be they either large or small discharges of ash clouds, their effects can be ambiguous; whether cooling or warming occurs does depend upon a huge number of Variables.


Is there any ways that the world can stop global warming?

No there is not. Climate change/global warming or cooling is a natural phenomena. We may be able to reduce the rate of change by sensible use of energy.
