  1. The truth is no one knows for sure, you will get a lot of statistics and data. However some of the data accumulated has not been accurate. Some scientists believe we are in the beginning of a cooling off period and that know one is talking about it because of the Global Warming Hype.  Those who like to blame humans seem to forget that we are indigenous to the planet.  We are a part of the natural order of things, I am frankly tired of those who blame humanity, I wonder what species they are a part of?


  2. The earth has been warming since the end of the last ice age 10,000 years ago.  There was a significant cooling period about 1000 years ago that lasted into the 1600's called the Little Ice Age.  Temperatures started rising again in the last 200 years, and they have been rising at a - geologically speaking - dramatic rate.

    The IPCC Report last year, whihc was the cumulation of 2500+ scientific expert reviewers, 800+ contributing authors, 450+ lead authors, participants from 130+ countries and represents six years of work, states ""Most of the observed increase in globally-averaged temperatures since the mid-20th century is very likely due to the observed increase in anthropogenic  greenhouse gas concentrations."  In other words - people are causing it.

  3. The mind of people are the major cause of global warming. If the people around the world think more about others like they think about themselves, the world would be much better. By destroying the nature, criating wastes and adding chemical in the land, the men contribute to the global warming.

    Even today, there are many people trying to get money from companies to do such illegal activities such as wood exploration. The Amazon Forest is the major example. Every year people are destroyng part of Amazon to make their business and farms there. Besides that wee see people around the world throwing their garbage in the river, lagoons and lakes; making then the rivers not good for drink. This and the  Amazon forest's example show how men have poer to destroy what it took years to be made. Without water and forests the weather get warm and warm.

    The waste is another problem in the world. Men tend to think only about themselves, but  they don't think about the consequences of their actions. Many people seems not to care enough for the preservation of the enviroment and make more wastes by not making recicle products and throwing kitchen oil in the sink; resulting on death of fishes and other lives. By damaging the water supply and not recicling the products, the men will need to cut more trees and explore more human resources.

    Finally nuclear production, chemicals launched by cars called CFC and toxic products contribute to the global warming. During the war nuclear weapons were used and it damaged not only humans but also it influenced the the change of the climate aond teh world. Car polluticon are the biggest concern among peopole. They are the most responsable for global warming. They launch CFC that destroy the Ozone Layer which protect us against ultraviolet rays. And as another fact, industries also respond to certain percentage of pollution and contribution to the Global warming.

  4. Less than a degree can be claimed to be caused by humans.  The climate has always varied and we are in a relatively warm period.  We should be thankful since the alternative is famine and crop failure.

  5. Anthropogenic global warming is the increase of earth's average temperature due to human activity. This is mainly caused by the burning of fossil fuels such as oil, coal and all sorts of things. The burning of fossil fuels release CO2 into the atmosphere and traps the sun's heat into the earth. CO2 is trapping too much heat and is causing earth to warm rapidly (so they say). The best way to stop this is to use nuclear energy world wide to prevent any more CO2 to unnaturally be released in the atmosphere since it produces no CO2.

  6. we are pumping so much trash and junk into our earth and were killing it. all these building and cars are poluting our air and heating our planet to a crisp. i bet if we all shut down some of these refineries and beet buildings we could have a little bit more cleaner air. but it will  take years for this to happen. (half of the world doesnt believe in it.)

  7. It is a tremendously complex issue. It's not just people or greenhouse gasses or natural climate change. It is in fact a compound combination of all of them.

    All sorts of things, from the salinity of the oceans to the number of contaminates in the atmosphere result in constant changes in temp of time. Our addition of greenhouse gasses has exacerbated the problem.
