Increase concentration of greenhouse gases is the only cause of global warming? any others?
-More extreme weather ( hurricane ,el-nino la-nina become more intensified) , drought, heatwave, storm
-Spread of diseases (eg. malaria)
-loss of biodiversity
-rise in sea lvl --> flooding of coastal area
-melting of ice caps and glaciers
Answer:
Don't think that you'll be able to confirm any of these.
coral bleaching - some say it is because of increase in sea surface temps, others say it is because of increase in acidity. Only one of these can be right since acidity decreases with increase of temperature and vice versa.
-More extreme weather - this is unfounded. An increase in warming has a "middling" effect. Extreme conditions are caused by an increase in the temperature gradient. If the gradient were increasing, then the poles wouldn't be in danger as claimed. You can't have it both ways.
-Spread of diseases (eg. malaria) Malaria was almost wiped out before environmentalists banned DDT. We now know that DDT does not pose the dangers ti humans as claimed. DDT is the most effective pesticide against infectious disease carrying insects like mosquitoes, fleas, and ticks. We lose 3 million people a year to malaria alone.
-loss of biodiversity. Nature opens one door when it closes another. Human existence is indebted to climate change- we wouldn't be here if not for a "loss" in biodiversity...
-rise in sea lvl --> current IPCC estimates 8 inches to 2 feet over the next century. And some experts believe that this is TOO HIGH.
-melting of ice caps and glaciers - not possible in the 50+ generations. Many scientists believe that a melting of the arctic polar cap will result in a new period of glaciation through alteration of the thermohaline conveyor.
OMG we need to save the planet YESTERDAY!!!! I've changed to cloth bags to try & not use plastic or paper one, i did change all our light bulbs last year & our bill was HALF the next month, do what we can!!
MOTHER EARTH IS FULL OF WRATH,THE WICKED ONES ARE STEALING ALL THE BLOOD OUT OF HER
The main cause of global warming is nature going through a regular cycle. Incidentally, oil does not cool your engine, it reduces friction in the moving parts. Antifreeze/coolant in the radiator is what cools the engine.
Starting about 40 years ago, greenhouse gases became the most important cause. The Sun is about 10% of the warming.
