Not any more. There was a time in the mid-20th century when burning fossil fuel, particularly coal, put so much dust and particulate matter into the atmosphere that it reflected some of the heat from the sun, reducing the effects of global warming. Clean Air acts later made the atmosphere clean again and global cooling disappeared.
False. The predominant scientific consensus is that the use of energy resources, particularly fossil fuels, contributes to global warming rather than cooling. While certain pollutants, like aerosols, can have a temporary cooling effect by reflecting sunlight, the overall impact of greenhouse gas emissions leads to an increase in global temperatures. Thus, using energy resources primarily exacerbates climate change rather than mitigating it.
No, unfortunately, it's the other way round. The use of energy sources from the burning of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) in industry, transport and the generation of electricity, releases carbon dioxide. This is one of the greenhouse gases that is contributing to global warming, not global cooling.
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.
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.
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.

we dont know
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.
Solar panels do not contribute to global warming. In fact, they help reduce greenhouse gas emissions by generating clean energy from the sun.
Local energy systems in the desert can contribute to global energy security and sustainability by utilizing renewable resources like solar energy. These systems can help reduce reliance on fossil fuels, decrease greenhouse gas emissions, and support efforts to combat climate change at a global scale. Additionally, advancements in desert energy technologies could lead to greater innovation and adoption of clean energy solutions worldwide.
It's renewable! It doesn't emit carbon dioxide greenhouse gases and other pollutants. It doesn't contribute to global warming.
If the earths surface were covered in snow the suns energy would reflect back into space,there fore not being absorbed by the surface causing a loss of heat creating an ice age.
We use energy most for transportation, electricity generation, and heating/cooling buildings. These sectors account for the majority of global energy consumption.

Pilots contribute to the society by helping to build the economy through the movement of resources from one country to another and bring about global integration.
The reverse change of global warming is global cooling, which refers to a decrease in average temperatures worldwide. Global freezing is not a recognized scientific term but can be used colloquially to emphasize extreme cold conditions.
