What has increased global warming?

Answer 1

The primary cause of Global warming is said to be the continuous influx of CO2 into the atmosphere. The primary cause of this influx is the burning of fossil fuels. This is adding additional greenhouse gases to the atmosphere.

Deforestation is also causing the warming to increase, as the trees can no longer remove CO2 from the air.

An abundance of CO2 in the atmosphere acts as a heat trap, it retains heats rather than letting it radiate out to space.

Answer 2

The Enhanced Greenhouse Effect is causing global warming. Like a greenhouse, the Earth is getting warmer because of the greenhouse gases. Burning fossil fuels like coal and oil releases more and more carbon dioxide. Agricultural practices release methane. The increase of these gases equals a warmer Earth, causing glaciers to melt, taking away Arctic and Antarctic animals' habitats.

Answer 3

• Global warming has increased over the recent forty years because we continue to burn fossil fuel in transport, industry and to generate electricity.
• We continue to cut down forests.
• We continue to waste electricity, forcing power companies to generate more and more by burning fossil fuels.
• We continue to waste oil by jumping into our cars when we could walk, or ride a bicycle.

Answer 4

Global warming has increased by people burning coal, oil and natural gas for transport, industry and to produce electricity. All this burning of non-renewable fossil fuel adds carbon dioxide to the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.

We are also cutting down forests to increase pasture land for beef production. Cattle belch out methane, a dangerous greenhouse gas, and the logged forests no longer absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen.

Answer 5

The world's population is increasing rapidly and so there is a great and increased demand for electricity. There is still plenty of coal in the world so it is easy for governments to build more coal-fired power stations, without regard for the polluting emissions that are causing global warming to increase.

Answer 6

Human activities such as burning fossil fuels, deforestation, and industrial processes are major contributors to global warming. These activities release greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, which trap heat and cause the Earth's temperature to rise. The increase in global temperatures leads to various extreme weather events and threatens ecosystems worldwide.

Answer 7

Because almost all humans just can't go 2 days without driving a car or burning fossile fuels.
