Incredible, isn't it? Even with the "debate" totally over and global warming is a universally recognized fact, there are still people who refuse the facts.
The world is warming because on top of any natural trends, the world is dumping millions of tons of carbon dioxide into the air from burning coal, methane, and oil for factories, power plants and vehicles. This traps heat, from the sun and from burning these fuels, in the atmosphere, warming the air and the ocean surface. This sets up a whole chain of conditions that magnify the heating up situation. The latest thing involved is that the arctic tundras, which were previously frozen [permafrost] are melting. When they melt, they give off carbon dioxide and there are well over 400,000 square miles of permafrost to a depth of as much as 80 feet. So there will be ever increasing global warming gases released ever faster

Not sure I understand your question but : Global Warming is caused by the polution we put into the atmosphere that eats away at our planets ozone layer, which protects us like a shield. But we also have Global Blanketing which is the polution itself, which also acts like a second layer of protection. We have to work on both or we could take away the planets ability to protect life from extinction...complicated issue, complicated balance, simple & devastating result...

That's pretty obvious.
Increased car use, increased exploitation of nature's resources, more electricity, more gasses being released into the air, less trees!(I think this is the most important, I live in the forest and its always 5 degrees cooler where we are then in town)
People need to learn to have a lighter footprint on earth. It can be stopped. But only if everyone believes it can, and works towards it.

very good question
pollution, cutting of trees, usage of natural resources these all are increasing day by day so the balance of our world is diminishing
latest discovery is that the temprature of antartic increase by 2.5 degree celcius and this can lead to melt up the ice and which could lead to very dangerous affects to human in coming 10decades...
so lets help our world by planting more and more trees all around and reduce pollution and wastage of natural resources
we have to save our world

Because the world of nature is leaving Earth for another country...
its basically because we keep abusing our Earth. We keep cutting down trees, we keep giving out harmfull gases which goes into the ozone layer and destroys it slowly.
The greenhouse gases (carbon monoxide, methane, carbon dioxide) keep increasing and as they trap heat, the world's temperature increases...

Ignore the first person
It's because of CFC's getting released into the environment and the effects of gasoline from cars and exhaust from trucks.
