Question

What is the solution to the melting snow and glaciers do to high temperatures?

Answer 1

There's alot of ideas being tossed around, some less conventional than others. But whatever the case may be, you can bet it won't be just one solution.

Answer 2

I assume you're talking about the warming of Earth caused by man-made carbon dioxide.  There are several things that might happen:

1. We could cut back on fossil fuel use to try and cut back our emissions of carbon dioxide.  If we start running out of fossil fuels this may be forced on us anyway.

2. We could try and capture the carbon dioxide at the source and sequester it underground, or possibly just remove from the air with large air treatment plants.

3. If we got really desperate, we could inject something into the stratosphere that would increase the Earth's reflectance and cut down on the sunlight making it to the surface.

Note that another answer asks you to just accept that the Earth warms and cools naturally.  It does, but that does not mean that we are not greatly accelerating the process and causing enormous harm by it.

Answer 3

to accept that long before man did anything, there was an ever-changing climate on this planet and that the plate tectonics and other things out of our control will eternally shift the face of the earth

Answer 4

well we can change the way we live and vote people you care about us and the envorment that means slow down on gas and are power
