It may well be too late to stop some serious effects of global warming. However, we should be optimistic. If we make serious changes now we may be able to live with a future climate for a while (several hundred years) till it cools again.

Does global warming affect the survival rate of polar bears?

Global Warming does affect the survival rate of Polar Bears because Global Warming Melts the ice.


The depletion of this natural resource within many parts of South America could seriously increase the rate of global warming?

The depletion of Rainforests could increase rate of global warming. It is because these forests absorb carbon dioxide. In their presence this greenhouse gas would cause global warming.


What does it mean to reduce global warming?

The current projected rate of global warming will be 4 to 7 degrees Celsius by the end of this century. "Reducing" global warming would be to aim at the lower end of this value. So our goal isn't really to reduce global warming--it is too late for that, barring some entirely new technology. Instead, we only hope to mitigate the environmental impact of human activity through reducing consumption of the fossil fuels which release greenhouse CO2 into the atmosphere.


How is global warming is related to photosynthesis?

Enzyme reaction rate increse with temperature. So photosynthetic rate increases


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.


How is global warming affecting the lives of leopard?

It is not. The past 10,000 years has shown warming, but the rate is slow enough for all animals to adapt.


Does an increased use of solar powered cars contribute to global warming?

No, this would have the opposite effect. It would reduce the rate of global warming. Most vehicles run on oil, the burning of which releases greenhouse gases and causes global warming. Solar powered cars have no harmful emissions.


What will happen if forests will disappear. Relate it to global warming?

That depends upon where they disappear to. If they are used in construction, the carbon contained in those forests will still remain sequestered. More likely, however, the forests will burn down, as our climate changes. This will release the carbon they contain into the atmosphere, accelerating the rate of global warming.


What are misconceptions about global warming?

Global warming is not important.Global warming isn't happening.Global warming is happening but it's not our fault.Global warming is happening but we can't do anything about it.Scientists are not sure about global warming.


How much ice melting due to global warming?

According to scientists, global warming is causing ice to melt at an accelerated rate worldwide. This melting is contributing to rising sea levels, which can lead to increased coastal flooding and erosion. It is essential to take action to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and slow down the rate of ice melt.


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.


Where has global warming occurred?

Global warming has occurred across the world, including in regions such as the Arctic, where temperatures have risen at a faster rate than the global average. Other impacted areas include Antarctica, where ice sheets are melting, leading to rising sea levels. Additionally, many regions have experienced extreme weather events like heatwaves, droughts, and wildfires due to global warming.
