  1. It is being partly caused by deforestation, where trees can no longer remove carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere.
  2. The other cause is the burning of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) in industry, transport and the generation of electricity, which releases carbon dioxide (CO2). Carbon dioxide building up in the atmosphere is absorbing more and more of the earth's heat and causing global warming.

Does Global Warming cause the depletion of the Ozone Layer?

Global warming and ozone depletion are two separate environmental issues. Global warming refers to the increase in Earth's overall temperature due to the accumulation of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. Ozone depletion, on the other hand, is the reduction of ozone molecules in the stratosphere due to the release of chemicals like chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs). While both issues are related to human activities and impact the Earth's climate, they are not directly linked to each other.

What is the overall rise in earth's average temperature called?

The rise in temperature is called Global Warming. This global warming of the earth is causing Climate Change. These two things are not the same thing.


Why are kids being taught that global warming is a fact in school when it is an unproven theory at best?

There are two views on whether global warming is real: the view of the overwhelming majority of climate scientists and the views of non-scientists. Most children are being taught the scientific view of global warming, which is that global warming is really happening. After all, by the time many of them are adults, they will have to cope with some of the problems expected to occur as a result of global warming.


What does global warming do to the ozone layer?

The ozone hole has little if nothing to do with global warming. The ozone hole is the thinning of the ozone layer, particularly over the south pole, where the extreme cold causes extreme thinning. Global warming is the rising temperature of the earth's atmosphere caused by human deforestation and the burning of fossil fuels.

Yes, Global warming leads to ozone layer depletion. These two phenomenon are interconnected.


What are two human activities that contribute to global worming?

Burning fossil fuels for energy production and transportation releases greenhouse gases like CO2, which trap heat in the atmosphere and cause global warming. Deforestation reduces the planet's ability to absorb CO2, leading to an increase in greenhouse gases and contributing to global warming.


How will global warming get wors?

Global warming will get worse if we, firstly, increase in pollution and secondly, the increase in deforestation. Trees take in oxygen and give out carbon dioxide (CO2). When they get destroyed, there is nothing to take in oxygen, but it keeps releasing CO2 which enhances the grennhouse effect and thereafter causes global warming. I am sure there are many other things which may cause global warming, but theses two are the only ones I am able to think of. Sorry for any inconvenience.


Global warming depletion of the ozone layer?

Global warming and depletion of ozone are two pretty close phenomenon. One causes other and vice versa.


Does global warming cause increased severity of earthquakes?

(Another contributor wrote:)Global warming has nothing to do with earthquakes.Earthquakes are at the margin between two tectonic plate boundaries. As the two plates push against each other pressure builds up which is released as a tremor that is felt to us on the earth, known as an Earthquake.

Why does war cause global warming?

it doesn't, in fact war is blamed for two cooling periods. Massive bombing can cause increased dust, which in turn is blamed for increased albedo. This increase in albedo can cause cooling temporarily.
