Will reducing carbon emissions stop the process of global climate change?

Question

Or are the changes going to happen anyways? If we cannot avoid global climate change, what steps should be take to survive those changes?

Answer 1

Reducing it will not stop the process of global climate change, but instead it slow down the global climate change. Because it's just REDUCING.

Answer 2

The world has been getting warmer since the last Ice Age ended.  When it stops getting warmer - we will begin entering into the next Ice Age.

Answer 3

The world came out of an Ice age long ago , there where no 4X4s then , its a phenomenon that's been going on since the world began, but left wing libs have jumped on the band wagon and made it an issue

Answer 4

Smoke from automobiles, factories and nuclear tests must be stopped to prevent the global warming because the protective layers above the earth are being pierced to allow the heat of the sun.

Answer 5

No, it is a cyclical process and these changes may save you money on your electric and gas bills, but no they will not stop any natural processes.  

The sun / solar radiation is stronger which is causing the cycle, which can be proved because Mars and Neptune are warming at the same rate proportional to earth.

While I do not really believe in global warming or rather the hysteria of the movement promoting it, I think some of the outcomes could be very positive.  

A cleaner environment and less reliance on foreign oil for one.  Fossils fuels are running out with or without the global warming hype, so this may compel faster change to a non fossil fuel system.  

I just wish we did not have the chicken little factor governing the whole thing.    Maybe saying something closer to the truth like --  HEY there is no more oil!  would be scarier to people and they are using this tactic to make the changes without Really bad hysteria.

Most of the changes for humans will not be negative.  I mean people live here in Phoenix where we get 120 in the summer and millions of people keep moving here.   People will be able to farm more in colder areas.    People should not build houses in areas liable to be flooded like New Orleans or Florida.  That is insanity even  in the best of times.

Answer 6

It will help in reducing the problem, but we must also note that since the Industrial Revolution and the creation of carbon emissions, the world's water bodies have slowly been sucking in the CO2.  Water has a physical tendency to absorb CO2, but at full capacity, the water bodies can't hold it in any longer, and it is re-emitted.  Therefore, if we do indeed reduce emissions, their will still be a certain amount being emitted out of the water.  I learned this in my environmental sciences class, just so I don't sound like a wacko.
