Is there significant effect due to human activity with respect to the global warming situation?
That is the multi billion dollar question of the decade. The fact is fairly well agreed upon (over 50%) that man has been a contributor in some capacity. We do know that carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas and that man burns fuel that creates this gas. In terms of the significance of our contribution, we simply do not know. Some experts claim that we are a significant contributor, while others claim that we are almost completely absolved of any meaningful involvement. The truth normally will be found somewhere ibetween.
What else can I help you with?
Tell me something in Hindi language about the step taken for global warming?
Global warming is a situation, in which, the temprature of the earth gets increase
Is Kyoto a possible solution to global warming?
No because the Kyoto protocol assumes human beings are responsible for global warming. This is unlikely to be the case because the earth has gone through numerous cycles of warming and cooling going back long before human beings were a significant presence on this planet. Ever heard of the Ice Ages? There were several. Global warming and cooling are a function of solar activity and people can't control the sun.
Which human activity is MOST likely to be a contributing factor in global warming?
A:Generating electricity from fossil fuels is the one human activity that contributes more than any other to increased atmospheric greenhouse gas levels and is therefore considered to be the main contributing factor in global warming. Thus, any human activity that creates an increased demand for electricity is effectively contributing to global warming. Next comes motor transport, because this requires us to burn oil, one of the main fossil fuels.
How does global warming cause tornadoes?
Global warming does not cause tornadoes. Tornadoes will happen with or without it. The argument that some use is that a warmer climate means that more energy is available for storms and thus more tornadoes. This is grossly oversimplified. A complex set of conditions are needed for tornado activity, especially significant activity. There are many variables. Raising average global temperatures will affect all of these variable in some way or another and will affect them differently in different regions in ways that are hard to predict. In all likelihood, global warming would result in an increase in tornado activity in some regions and a decrease in others.
What is the most significant environmental change that is taking place today?
Global warming
Why have you tried to stop global warming?
Because it IS A HIGHLY SIGNIFICANT SITUATION [and problem].
Does global warming affect earthquake activity?
no
Can Global Warming trigger Volcanic Activity?
No, global warming should not have any influence on volcanoes.
Can wildfires start global warming?
While wildfires release significant amounts of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere which contribute to global warming, they are not a direct cause of it. Wildfires are typically a result of human activity or natural factors like lightning strikes. However, their frequency and intensity can be influenced by climate change, which is a major driver of global warming.
Could tornadoes cause global warming?
No. While global warming might affect tornado activity, tornadoes themselves are an end product of weather and climatic activity, not a cause.
What is global warming about?
Global warming is caused by human activity. The planet is warming and this warming is changing the climate. Sea levels are rising and threaten many low-lying areas and cities permanently.
Are tornadoes linked to global warming?
Tornadoes will always occur, with or without global warming. So far the only known trend in tornado activity that may be linked to global warming is a northward shift of the areas of highest tornado activity in Tornado Alley.
What additional climate variables contribute to the picture of human-caused warming?
In addition to human caused variables that contribute to warming, there are several natural variables which also are major factors. These include solar activity, volcano activity and en nino activity.
How significant is the volcanic contribution to global warming?
Volcanic eruptions can release large amounts of gases and particles into the atmosphere, which can temporarily cool the Earth by blocking sunlight. However, the overall contribution of volcanic activity to global warming is relatively small compared to human activities, such as burning fossil fuels. Human activities are the primary driver of current global warming trends.
What human activity is NOT thought to be related to global warming?
walking and running
What substance is thought to be causing global warming?
Solar activity. Period.
How solar activity affect global warming?
sets people on fire.
