We'll find out.
Earth is fairly large, its diameter is about 8000 miles. Such a big world requires time to adjust to certain changes we have introduced. One of those changes is the substantial increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide levels over the past two hundred years.
Climate scientists anticipate the earth will continue adjusting to current increased levels for centuries to come. Increasing the level will simply make these anticipated changes occur faster. Glacial melt water will increase ocean levels. We expect an increase in the strength of storms, though not necessarily an increase in storm frequency. May low lying coastal areas are expected to flood. Many areas will suffer greater, more prolonged periods of drought. A few will see increased rainfall over historic norms.
Climate is always changing a little bit from one place to another over time. The big question is whether human activity has accelerated the rate of change. Most scientists are confident the data indicates that we have.
What else can I help you with?
What would happen to the atmosphere's temperatures if there wasn't any carbon dioxide?
The atmosphere would be slightly cooler than it is now if there were no carbon dioxide in it. Carbon dioxide is just one of several so-called "greenhouse gasses". It is second in importance to water vapor, a very distant second. So, if all the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere suddenly disappeared, it would not affect temperatures very much. What you have to worry about is the effect on plant life. Plants cannot survive without carbon dioxide. No trees, no crops. Fortunately, it's just not possible to deplete all of the carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. Even over the long term. There are plenty of sources for carbon dioxide, including the burning of fossil fuels and respiration of animal life. And if that all ran out, then you have about a hundred times as much CO2 stored in the oceans as there is in the atmosphere, and that would go back into the atmosphere rather quickly.
What would happen to Earth's oceans if its atmosphere had as much carbon dioxide as Venus?
If Earth's atmosphere had as much carbon dioxide as Venus, the oceans would become very acidic, leading to the destruction of marine life and ecosystems. This would have a devastating impact on the planet's biodiversity and overall health.
What would happen to the carbon dioxide level in the atmosphere if there were less plants and trees?
Trees and plants take in Carbon Dioxide and in turn breathes out oxygen. If there was no plants and trees we would die. The whole of the world depends on plants and trees. Not meaning to sound like a tree-hugger, but don't cut down trees...plant them!
How does carbon move to atmosphere to ocean?
Carbon moves from the atmosphere to the ocean through a process called carbon sequestration. This can happen through physical processes such as diffusion or ocean mixing, as well as biological processes like photosynthesis by phytoplankton. Carbon dioxide in the atmosphere dissolves in the ocean's surface waters, where it can then be stored for long periods of time.
What might happen if there is too much carbon dioxide in the lithosphere?
When too much Carbon dioxide is present in the lithosphere, the surface will heat up. Not only will the lithosphere be effected, but the hydrosphere will be affected more compared to the damage caused in the lithosphere due to the gas Carbon dioxide.The worse part is that many natural calamities occur when the Carbon Dioxide in the lithosphere loses its balanceFact:The amount of Carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is normally 0.04%. But eventually it has grown.
What happen to the carbon dioxide produced in breaking down pyruvic acid?
it is released in the atmosphere
What would happen if you kept on breathing in carbon dioxide?
There is carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. You have been breathing it in all your life.
Does more heat mean more carbon dioxide in the atmosphere?
The more carbon dioxide the hotter the planet gets. The hotter the planet gets the more wild fires happen. For every fire that occurs more carbon dioxide is released.
What happen when extra carbon dioxide builds up in the atmosphere?
nothing will happen at all
What happens when carbon dioxide builds up in the atmosphere?
nothing will happen at all
What would happen if the insulating layer of carbon dioxide around the earth gets thicker?
There is no insulating LAYER of Carbon Dioxide round the Earth. The Carbon Dioxide is mixed up with the Oxygen and Nitrogen in Earth's atmosphere and is not present in the atmosphere as a layer. If the absolute amount of Carbon Dioxide in the atmosphere increases, the Earth would get warmer.
What will happen if you have more carbon dioxide in earths atmosphere?
Carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas. More of it in the earth's atmosphere means that more heat will be retained. This will, indeed is, causing global warming.
What will happen to the temperature of the atmosphere after you stop adding carbon dioxide into the air?
we will all die :)
What would happen to the temperature of the atmosphere if carbon dioxide increase due to human activity?
It will rise. The temperature of the atmosphere is rising already because carbon dioxide is increasing due to human activity.
What would happen to the temperature of the atmosphere if carbon dioxide increased due to human activity?
It will rise. The temperature of the atmosphere is rising already because carbon dioxide is increasing due to human activity.
What could happen to carbon dioxide if water temperatures rise?
Carbon dioxide is released from water at high temperature.
What will happen to humans if carbon dioxide is the only gas in the atmosphere?
we will all suffocate due to no oxygen
