Question

2 Natural factors that can change the global climate??

Answer 1

1. The sun - does it every sday, of every year of every decade of every century....

2. Volcanoes - they eject so much matter as to block many of the suns rays. Massive volcanoes can and will effect the global climate.

Answer 2

1.  Oceanic oscillations like PDO (30 to 40 year phases) and ENSO (12 to 18 month phases).  The change in the PDO from warm to cool phase can cause a real climate regime shift.

2.  Solar variation (solar cycles have different strengths).

Answer 3

Natural causes include the Sun. This is why MARS is getting HOTTER. There is also the fact that the Earth naturally goes through cycles where it heats and cools, and has been since the start of time. A third NATURAL factor is COWS, they are one of the biggest producers of methane.

Answer 4

I'm not sure but what about the changing of the poles. Meaning the north pole might no longer be the north pole.

Or the  moons ability to mess the tides and currents.

An attempt.

Answer 5

Natural Factor is the Sun and the Valconoes by way of Lava.

which only contributes for 10% only but the total 90% was contributed by human.

Answer 6

volcanoes and wild fires?

Answer 7

Changes in the amount of solar radiation and changes in ocean currents are the biggest factors that alter climate. There is no evidence that increasing CO2 levels have had any affect on the recent climatic change episode, it is only a theory without a significant correlation of data to support it.

In fact AMO+PDO cross correlated with USHCN yielded a cross correlation coefficient of 0.83.

CO2 cross correlated with USHCN only yielded a cross correlation coefficient of 0.44.

Answer 8

The global climate will change for the better if we stop using so much paper, and stop eating meat.

Answer 9

Well, one natural factor that tends to change the climate is the orbital cycle. Actually there are three orbital cycles and they do not go in step. But they do affect global climate. Especially when they do coincide eventually.

Another factor is volcanic activity (more CO2 means more global warming...). But that is not likely to increase, generally speaking.

Answer 10

Luminosity of the sun.  Small variations in output of energy from the sun can have large effects on global climate.

Location of Antarctic plate at the south pole.  May be the cause of the current ice age we are in, and subsequent glaciation cycles.
