To date there is no evidence that global warming is causing stronger tornadoes. In fact there are fewer strong tornadoes in the U.S. now than there were 50 years ago. This decrease appears to be due to factors other than global warming.
The popular assumption is that a warmer atmosphere means more energy is available to power storms such as tornadoes. The problem is that weather and climate are complicated things. Tornadoes depend on a number of different factors, of which temperature is just one.

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 global warming caused hole in ozone layer?
Global warming does not directly cause the hole in the ozone layer. The hole in the ozone layer is primarily caused by human-produced chemicals known as ozone-depleting substances (such as chlorofluorocarbons, or CFCs). While global warming and ozone depletion are related environmental issues, they have distinct causes and impacts.
What is a main reason for the film 'Inconvenient Truth' was made?
To make people aware of global warming.
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.
Do humans make tornadoes worse?
Some have propose that global warming may cause and increase in the number of tornadoes and number of strong tornadoes, but so far there has been no substantial evidence of that. Aside from that possibility it is unlikely that tornadoes are any stronger or more frequent as a result of human activity. However death tolls and injuries may be higher as a result of practices such as building houses without basements and trailer parks in tornado prone areas. These do not affect the tornadoes themselves, but leave people who live in such places more vulnerable.
Instead of talking about global warming why are people not acting?
Because no one wants to make the sacrifices required to stop global warming.
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.
Why does global warming require global awareness?
Global awareness of the dangers of global warming, and global awareness that solutions really are possible, will enable us all to make informed decisions to support efforts to reduce our carbon emissions and make the world a better place for our children and grandchildren.

Can global warming cause hurricanes?
If it can, we have not seen them developing as of yet. The number of hurricanes has risen slightly, but the strength and intensity has been shown to have decreased over the past several decades.
Why should you make global warming?
you shouldn't, u should decrease it.

Might Global Warming be the cause of more tornadoes?
*If you don't want an explanation skip to end of this paragraph. Basically global warming is considered an overall warming trend in the mean average global temperature. Tornadoes are caused by the interaction of dry cool air in the mid levels, and warm moist air in the low levels, causing a very unstable situation. This unstable atmosphere allows for long lived and very large severe thunderstorm complexes. The larger and more violent the thunderstorm complex the greater the chance is for the occurrence of tornadoes. Now you would think that warming temperatures would cause a greater occurrence of severe weather due to a warmer moister layer in the low levels but the dynamics of it is dependent on the temperature/density gradient between the mid levels and the low levels, a warming atmosphere tends to warm the mid levels just as much as the low levels so your temperature gradient stays the same but warm air holds more moisture so your density gradient decreases. This increases the chance of thunderstorms, but decreases your chance of severe thunderstorms. *A warming atmosphere reduces the chance of tornadoes. This simplifies the scenario somewhat. Global warming will have different impacts in different parts of the world. The result is that some areas may see a decrease in tornado activity while others see an increase. There is some evidence, for example, that the area of peak tornado activity in the United States is slowly shifting northward.
Is there a cure for global warming?
there hasn't been a cure for global warming yet but they are trying to make one without paying much money but honestly I don't think there is one.
What are the negative possibilities from Coca-Cola?
It can make you burp, which causes global warming.
Will global warming make the earth colder or warmer?
Global warming would make the earth warmer. However, some parts, for example, Britain, may become colder for a while, especially if the Gulf Stream cools or slows.
