Global Warming~?

Question

Global Warming is a topic that can be all pointed to ones opinion.

Over thirty years ago there were scientists saying it was global cooling and now they are saying that it is global warming.

One thought is that Global warming is real but not to the thoughts of what people think. Global warming is the heating of the earth but not that it's due to man-made problems but it's due to the Earth's cycle. The Earth heats up and cools over time as it always has and always will.

And then theres the other though:

Global Warming is because of pollution people put off. It's man-made and can be helped if we act now.

..............

What's you're opinion?

Answer 1

i agree with the first part, man has not made as much greenhouse gas pollution as people say we have, it was exaggerated and thought to be true with little evidence, and now we see a bit longer winter and not such hot temperature, and what happens to that theory?

in fact, a single eruption of a volcano produces much more harmful gases than humans would produce in many years

all this to say, it isnt bad to prevent this pollution, but at this stage it is not having as big of an effect as we might think

Answer 2

Not it is not man made. The science points toward natural causes (very mild man made influence).

Answer 3

I agree that it is definetely a natural cycle. Weather trends are completely random. The only reason many people think there is a global warming going on is because 400 years ago there was a little ice age, and compared to that todays temperatures are a lot warmer. Going back 3000 years temperatures are quite average.

1st Refute:

Temperature Change causes CO2 change.

Why? The Ocean (where 93% of all CO2 is on the earth) is being heated, therefore all the atoms are getting faster. For example, when you leave a soda can in a hot area and open it up, all the fizz(CO2) will come up. Well, imagine the ocean as a huge soda can... basically same concept. CO2 is a natural cycle. IT gets warmer and there will be more CO2!

2nd Refute:

Climate change is naturally caused by change in sun

Why? Solar activity trends is very similar to temperature trends (even during the "global cooling" of 1940-1980). Plus temperature on other planets are getting warmer.

3rd Refute:

there is no consensus

Why?

IPCC didn't state that Global warming was caused by humans... the scientists said that the earth has gotten warmer in the last 100 years, period. Political leaders of the IPCC  changed the consensus to humans caused global warming which made many angry scientists. Plus, the Oregon Petition has 19,000 American Scientists who disagree with the fact that humans cause gloabal warming.

4th Refute:

CO2 is not a pollutant... and is required for life... Trees and plant life are now thriving because of CO2!!!CO2 IS GOOD!

5th Refute:

Human CO2 has changed from 0.03% to 0.04% (in the past century) of the Atmospheric molecules. Wow that is a lot! ACTUALLY NO IT ISN'T!

Whether you like it or not temperature change is natural, and not caused by humans!!

Believe me I think we should help the environment, but not by hurting/capping industries. We should subsidize alternative energy businesses and support using evironmentally friendly energy.

Sorry if there are spelling errors i did this quickly.

Answer 4

the earth does heat naturattly and it also cools. but before global warming was not as big of a product so big factorys that relase grey fumes intto the sky so it proabbly made global warming as bad as it is now.

Answer 6

there was once a global cooling scare...what happened to that? i think it is cause by both:

1. earth's natural heating and cooling cycle

2. all the c**p humans have been doing
