Burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) emit polluting greenhouse gases which are incredible harmful to the planet, causing global warming. Global warming is causing climate change.
Carbon dioxide (CO2) has the greatest impact globally on the enhanced greenhouse effect. It is the most prevalent greenhouse gas emitted through human activities such as burning fossil fuels. CO2 is a major contributor to global warming and climate change.
It is still called Global Warming, but many people are now talking about Climate Change.Global warming is the way the world is warming (through burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) and deforestation). But global warming is CAUSING Climate change.
The two major global changes affecting the biosphere today are the ozone layer high in the atmosphere and the global climate system. Hope this helps! (:It's the global warming and the climate change. The biosphere is the global sum of all ecosystems
Yes, a fair understanding of what you said would help us a lot to be good responsible global citizens.
Solar powered buildings and cars reduce carbon dioxide that is added to the atmosphere because instead of having the process of burning like fossil fuels they take in the light energy from the sun, store and use it.
People believe that man is causing global warming and climate change by burning fossil fuels and cutting down the forests of the world.Other people believe that global warming is a natural event and man is not causing it.Most believe that it is partially a natural issue that man is having some unknown affect on as well. This is where most scientists fall.Other people believe that global warming is not happening at all.
The normal greenhouse effect keeps the planet, and us, warm.the enhanced greenhouse effect, which we are having now, is causing global warming and climate change.This is happening because of our burning of fossil fuels(coal, oil and natural gas) and deforestation (cutting down trees which previously removed carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere).
Water isn't a fossil fuel because it is not a fossil and it will not burn, having already been completely oxidized. If you want, you can think of it as the ash resulting from burning hydrogen.

Because our present sources are running out, the majority of which are fossil fuels, and are adding to global warming and climate change.A:Because the US dependence upon foreign oil is having adverse effects on the US economy and the climate. If we can develop an alternative, then we have more control on oil prices and less dependency on other nations.
Global warming is being caused by the extra carbon dioxide (CO2) released by the burning of fossil fuels, and by deforestation, which removed the forests that used to absorb CO2 from the atmosphere.Human respiration, where we breathe out CO2, is part of the natural carbon cycle. For millions of years the carbon cycle has been able to move CO2 in and out of the atmosphere. Of course there are now almost 7 billion people in the world, so we are having some effect. However, it is unlikely that human respiration alone would have much effect on global warming.
Burning large amounts of fossil fuels and cutting down forests.
"Climate Change" and "Global Warming" are not the same, though related. Global Warming causes Climate Change. With Global Warming we understand the warming of the earth's global temperature. That warming has in turn an effect on the earth's global climate and on more localized climates (like the climate of England or Western US).
its because global warming is actually the opposite of the natural phenomenon called "Ice Age". but glbal warming is the point where our climate should be very very hot which can kill human species. Today as we can see we were just having a short term global warming due to the earths cores heat which has been closer the the surface due to gravitaional forces in the solar system related to changes in Earth's orbit.
Weather is not climate. Climate is an average from all over ... all year round.
China as a nation is the world's largest emitter of carbon pollution. The US is now second, having recently been overtaken. Factories, industries and electricity generation, all burning fossil fuel that releases the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide, are the main cause.
