There are many kinds of thermal energy which probably wouldn't contribute too much to global warming because what CO2 does is it traps the sun's energy, and as you know the sun is REALLY hot.

How does recycling satisfy those affected by global warming?

Recycling will never satisfy those affected by global warming. Recycling does make a small difference to the amount of energy expended, but the big problem is the use of fossil fuels. We need to move to renewable energy, which emits no greenhouse gas at all. Only then will global warming slow.


How does photosynthesis and cellular respiration relate to global warming?

well it is said that plants can help stop global warming. So, they have photosynthesis and do cellular respiration to take in carbon dioxide and make it oxygen. global warming has to do with carbon dioxide. there you go! :)


Is there a valid way to study global warming?

The most valid way to study global warming is through history. Scientists observe the past occurances of climate, environment, atmosphere, etc., to understand the way global warming is developing over time. To gain the most insight on global warming, it would be wise to work alongside someone who is studying it themselves. Global warming is simply a matter of tracking trends and analyzing patterns to make inferences. If you are doing this, you are studying global warming,


How could solar radiation enhance or slow down the effects of global warming?

If the sun's radiation output increased, then this would make global warming hotter.If the sun's radiation output decreased, this would make global warming cooler.In fact, the sun's radiation doesn't vary much at all.


Does 'not recycling' contribute to global warming?

Yes, a bit. If you don't recycle, especially cans, bottles and plastic, the companies have to make new products out of the original bauxite, iron ore, silicon, or oil. This takes much more energy than recycling, and most energy use adds greenhouse gases (carbon dioxide) to the atmosphere causing global warming.

How can we stop cars causing global warming?

Make them run on renewables, that is, electricity generated from renewable energy (solar, wind, water, hydro, tidal and wave, geothermal, ocean thermal, biomass and biofuel).

What does mitigate global warming mean?

Mitigate means to soften or make easier, so with global warming it means to reduce it. The way, of course, to reduce global warming is to plant billions of trees and to stop burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas).


Why are people still causing global warming?

There is not enough renewable energy (solar, wind, water etc), so people still have to use fossil fuel energy (coal, oil and natural gas), which is causing global warming. Ordinary people can lower their energy use at home, and they can educate their parents or children, and they can lobby politicians, but until governments make industry pay the true cost of carbon pollution, then global warming will continue.


What ideas do scientists have about how to use natural resources to make energy without causing global warming?

Wind, solar, tides, geothermal.


Can being green help global warming?

Yes by cleaning the earth, takes away pollution. And the pollution is what's causing global warming. But just to say, I don't believe in global warming. Because THE LORD promised he wouldn't flood the Earth again.


Could global warming make snakes bigger?

No, global warming is unlikely to make snakes or any animals bigger. Their habitats are warming so animals are already on the move seeking cooler climates.


Instead of talking about global warming why are people not acting?

Because no one wants to make the sacrifices required to stop global warming.


Why doesn't California make tourism illegal since it contributes to global warming?

Tourism contributes to global warming, yes, but if the tourists stayed at home, they would still be contributing to global warming by using electricity, transport, heating, and all the other ways we contribute to global warming. Tourism helps the local economy, which is why is still legal. When all travel is banned (except from renewable energy) many tourists will have to stay at home.


What is chemical energy facts?

Some chemical sources are bad for the environment, for example gases creates greenhouse effects which make global warming.

How does photosynthesis and cellular respiration relate to global warming?

well it is said that plants can help stop global warming. So, they have photosynthesis and do cellular respiration to take in carbon dioxide and make it oxygen. global warming has to do with carbon dioxide. there you go! :)
