Question

What would happen to global warming if the human population didn't keep exploding?

Answer 1

Human population has nothing to do with the myth of "Global Warming"

In fact the environmentalists are now calling it "Climate Change" because the earth is not warming any more, it is now in a cooling trend.

The Scientific community is quickly coming to a consensus that the "Global Warming" we experienced was due to solar activity and not the fabled "Green House Gasses"

The next question should be:

Sooo... Why aren't the environmentalists telling us it was all a big mistake?

CONTROL, POWER, AND MONEY!

p.s. Am I the only one who noticed they are NOT talking about "Global Warming" anymore, but have slid in "Climate Change" on us because the earth is NOT getting hotter now?

Why would the United Nations say "this, and that", and retain all of these scientists that proclaim their agenda?

CONTROL, POWER, AND MONEY!

Most environmental scientist are looking for 1 thing:

The next Government Grant, so they can put food on the table at home.

When I was a kid "Global Cooling" was going to kill us all.

In the 80's and early 90's it was "Acid Rain" that would eventually get so bad it would burn through you skin if you were caught out doors in a rain storm.

Then it was "Global Warming" and we would all die from the ensuing flood.

Where are the apologies from the environmentalists for all of those hoaxes that made us change our laws and spent billions of dollars on?

Now we have the "Daddy" of 'em all:

"Climate Change"

Answer 2

What?

Answer 3

Well, global warming is something natural, see Milankovich cycles for that info. But the air has never been this polluted, we are now at a level about 385 parts per million of carbon dioxide in our atmosphere. We did it, and we are that accelerator for global warming. The temperature rise should not be this fast, every year gets warmer. If everybody says that it i something natural and that we can't affect it, so why does United Nation Organization and European Union try do reduce emissions of carbon dioxide  in the air? They know we produce it, and they want to reduce that as much as it can be reduced

Answer 4

Nothing would change, global warming is a naturally occuring event in our world and happens over and over, not a human influenced phenomena.

Answer 5

we'll live past 2012

Answer 6

Human population growth is a contributing factor to virtually every environmental issue. Cutting forest land to grow crops, more pollution due to more cars, species extinction due to loss of habitat. All of these and many more are directly related to human population and it's needs and wants.

Even if humans managed to achieve zero population growth, many of these problems would continue as emerging nations begin to consume more "stuff" rather than just meeting basic needs. What we need is zero population growth (or even negative growth) and to be more responsible about how we use the land and other resources.

I imagine that sooner or later the planet will hit a tipping point and human populations will begin to decline because there simply aren't enough resources to support the number of people. But I can't help wonder what shape the planet will be in at that point.

Answer 7

its not how many humans populate the planet, its how much harm a single human can inflict upon the planet

Answer 8

it would for sure get better. we are ruining the earth with everything we do.

Answer 9

All those explosions have got to be making a lot of heat, so I guess if folks stop exploding, the earth would cool down a bit.  People should not explode....it just isn't a good thing to do.  And....it's messy.

Answer 10

Global warming is linked mostly to solar activity, not population.  As the earth has been warming, other planets in our solar system have warmed as well.  Human activity does not have any significant effects at all, in fact, CO2 occupies only one-ten-thousandth part more of the atmosphere that it did in 1750 - and that includes the Industrial Revolution!

Answer 11

It would probably slow down some, but I think it would still happen anyways.  This wouldn't be the first time planet earth has had a global warming happen.  Remember the Ice Age?  That all started going away with I think a more gradual global warming.

Answer 12

It's much more complicated than that.
