If humans are causing global warming, why is it also happening on other planets?

Question

I am not a member of the Al Gore church of global warming. I do believe that the sun and earth cycles cause warming trends.

Answer 1

Please, don't bring the church in. Believe this "it is human made global warming" open your eyes.

Answer 2

Global warming has always been happening, we are just speeding up the process at an almost uncontrollable rate.

Answer 3

Wow, way to be original! http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;...

It is not likely because of cosmic rays. I

BTW, which planets are you referring to?

'Pluto's global warming was "likely not connected with that of the Earth. The major way they could be connected is if the warming was caused by a large increase in sunlight. But the solar constant--the amount of sunlight received each second--is carefully monitored by spacecraft, and we know the sun's output is much too steady to be changing the temperature of Pluto."'II

Mars is because of dust storms. III

And have you ever thought, maybe two things can warm the earth at one once (or is that too complicated for you)?

Answer 4

It is well known that nuclear tests was made under the ground first they dig a large deep hole then place an atom bomb or a hydrogen bomb.then they detonated and cause a massive explosion, this moved our planet forward in its orbit and caused the present situation global warming, The orbit of our world came to near the sun, and that shows how man is greedy for power and world domination, that he came so far to cause a very serious problem in the worlds orbit,

Answer 5

First let me say I believe in global warming. I believe it's happening, but I believe it's natural. I do not believe man to be the primary cause, therefore, we're not the primary solution either. I don't believe there even IS a solution.

Answer 6

I don't think you've thought this through.  Let me ask you some (rhetorical) questions.

If the warming on Earth and other planets were due to the sun alone, wouldn't all the other planets be warming?  What do you think is the reason that is not the case?  Maybe because each planet has its own warming and cooling mechanisms?

Answer 7

The key thing is that it has happened many times on Earth before but man has accelerated the process which is now, irrevercible.

You reap what you sew.

Answer 8

Blasphemer! how dare you question the word of Gore!

Answer 9

just give us evidences dat the whole solar system is experiencing it and then we will answer ur question.. Global warming is not an alarming topic..Its pace at earth .. the way its speeding up daily.. dis is the main question.. now will u just stop thinking all dis and start thinking how can u stop global warming in earth.. i hope u belong to earth.. or r u sm alien.. u seem to b more worried abt other planets.. dont u... so plz.. think abt smthing that is highly imp.... and dat is global warming on EARTH and nt on other planets.. once it is in our control... we will surely think abt other planets.. i promise

Answer 10

The sun has cycles that alternate every 11 years between solar maximum and solar minimum, with the next solar maximum occurring in the year 2012. At this point the sun will be at its hottest for another 22 years. The last solar minimum was in 2001, and global trends have show an increase in temperature on Earth way before starting in the 1990's.

There are three fundamental flaws in the 'other planets are warming' argument:

   1. Not all planets are warming - some are cooling

   2. The sun has shown no long term trend since 1950

   3. There are explanations for why other planets are warming

Only 6 planets or moons out of the 100+ bodies in the solar system have been observed to be warming. On the other hand, Uranus is cooling

Answer 12

our summer in the philippines which is april to may now became may-june

and our summer this year also became our rainy season...

the climate now is f*cked up...it's mixed,

next thing you'll hear in the tv, saudi arabia now experiencing blizzard o.o

and fact france's grape farm is not doing well this few years and england became good at it cause of temperature's going up a bit

EDIT: oh yea the question....humans aren't the primary ones causing the warming just like the other said theyr'e just speeding it up...

millions of years ago global warming existed but not too much and other planets have it because there are still factors that cause it like volcanoes, etc

Answer 13

global warming "is not happening in other planet", it was discovered in other planets. this means that it is an event of daily or may be annually on other planets. it is an occurrence of the heating of the planet (which happens naturally on other planets because there is no change of gas concentration.the "green house" gases was always there to begin with) by entrapment  of heat emitted by the sun in its atmosphere. in these planet(S) the gases were always there. what is happening is that the same occurrence is gradually happening on our planet due to the un-natural green house gases that is accumulating in a largely abnormal amount. this problem does not occur before due to the balance of gas was undisturbed before men. u must understand that the term "green house" is used not because of the vegetation inside of it. the term refers to the heat that is in-traped because of the glass dome used to shelter it. due to the glass (transparent shelter) heat can be transfer into the dome by light but the heat could not escape out by radiation. thus, heat coming in is more then heat coming out. This is the green house effect. the greenery has nothing to do with it. it is just the place where they discover the similar effect thus naming it as such.

Answer 14

let me jus tell u

dat its our belief dat there is no life in other planets but only god knows the truth.One of da main reasons of global warming are da d**n things we use in our daily life but about the other planets do u hav any idea

hope u understand

thank u

Answer 15

Global warming can be natural as well as unnatural. In the past, there have been many times when global warming has occured naturally. This is a slow process though. What is happening right now is different because it is happening at a faster rate. Humans are making pollution that speeds up the natural occurrence. Also, if you look at graphs of  CO2 levels in the past, you can see that the levels are higher today than they have ever been because of humans.

Answer 16

yes, you are correct that warming trends are natural, however if you look at the data you have to be idiot to not believe at the very least that we should be worried and it extremely likely that it is caused or escalated by human actions... just llok at world temp averages for past buku years and the world carbon dioxide numbers for each of those years.. btw, this is easily gotten from ice cores... then you will see we are far outside the normal warming trend and at extremely rapid pace which coincides with human developement and industry... all you should do is look at the numebrs... dont read or listen to me or anyone else, just look at the numbers and you can easily make your own mind up... no matter what cause is we need to worry, and my opinion is its too late and we are too weak willed to stop it now... i think we are screwed, but probably not so bad as end of humanity, just a little population control, say somewhere around 2 of every 3 people gone

Answer 17

it's the borg in all their d**n s.u.v.'s on mars. or um maybe it's the sun.

Answer 18

When you get on a plane with lots of other people, and you're all flying to the same city, do you think you're all doing it for the same reason? That's equivalent to the question you asked.  Just because it's warming on Earth and may be warming on another planet doesn't mean they're warming for the same reason.

And by the way, saying "Al Gore church of global warming" is very insulting to the thousands of scientists that are working on the research.

EDIT: I'm sorry if you don't understand analogies Evans, email me and I'll explain it to you...I could also explain physics to you while I'm at it, since that is my field.

Answer 19

Scientists are currently working on models to demonstrate how man-made instruments, pointed at celestial bodies, intensify solar energy reaching the surface of said bodies.  Result:  Man-made global warming on all of them too....but only when we look at them!

(Intended as a joke...the Sun is obviously the culprit).

Edit (pegminer):  Does motive keep the passengers from plummeting to the Earth or are they all subject to the same laws of physics?  Your analogy doesn't work.

Answer 20

well never have i seen so many scientists ever converge on one spot that doesnt know the difference between to and too.

CO2 is made primarily by the sun. to think we have even a little blame on global warming is TOO funny.(notice the too reference)

to emmanuel saying we set off nukes pushing us closer to the sun is quite hilarious. is this al gore incognito?

its the angle of the rays kiddo that makes the sun warmer or colder. isnt this stuff 3 rd grade science?

any hoo, the sky is falling blah blah blah and there s enough hot air in this thread to raise the earths temp 1 degree itself.

good question though
