Yes. Every national and international scientific organization accepts that global warming is happening because of the human activities of deforestation and the burning of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) in industry, transport and the generation of electricity, which releases carbon dioxide (CO2).

What is the effect of CFLs on global warming?

Compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs) can help reduce global warming by lowering energy consumption compared to traditional incandescent bulbs. CFLs use less electricity to produce the same amount of light, resulting in lower greenhouse gas emissions from power plants. Switching to CFLs can contribute to reducing carbon dioxide emissions and combating global warming.


Is the decline of honey bees a greater problem than global warming?

Both the decline of honey bees and global warming are significant environmental issues that require urgent attention. Each has unique impacts on ecosystems and human livelihoods, so it may not be useful to compare them in terms of importance. Both issues need to be addressed through collective efforts to ensure a sustainable future for our planet.


Is natural gas useful or harmful?

Natural gas is useful as a relatively clean-burning fossil fuel that can be used for heating, cooking, and electricity generation. However, its extraction and transportation can result in methane leaks, a potent greenhouse gas, contributing to global warming and climate change. It is important to balance the benefits of natural gas with its environmental impacts.

Why is tidal power useful?

Tidal power is useful because it generates electricity that is renewable, free and non-polluting. So it is an excellent replacement for energy from fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) which is non-renewable, expensive and polluting (that is, causing global warming).

What research has been done on sargassum seaweed?

evidence shows that sargassum seaweed provides enough dietary iodine to make it useful as a treatment for goiter. There is little scientific evidence that sargassum seaweed is useful in treating such other thyroid problems


Does fishing and driving cause global warming?

Yes it does, overpopulation means more emissions into the atmosphere by the increased amounts of people and the clearing of forests to build more houses, agricultural land, industries etc. Fewer trees, less oxygen, more carbon dioxide, hence more global warming. ================================== It is a good thing that the Earth is Intuitive and warms as more people are added.. We need the Warming to create more useful farmland to FEED the NEW Humans.

Does spam mail contribute to global warming?

If you think on how many spam mails that are sent every day, it does produce pretty much greenhouse gasses. Here´s how it happens: Spam eMail gets sent from someone, which uses power. eMail gets through some servers, which also uses power. eMail gets received which again uses power. And that's how it can contribibute to global warming. Hope you found it useful.
