If we stop putting CO2 into air, will global warming stop right now or it has to run its course?

Answer 1

You mean CO, not CO2, but global warming will slow down. The ecosystem will work to correct itself.

Answer 2

Global warming would continue for decades afterwards. We'll stop putting CO2 into the atmosphere when we run out of petroleum, and not until. In the meantime, global warming will continue through our lifetimes.

Answer 3

If you wanna stop emitting the co2, just get every animal to stop breathing for a while....this will cause the depletion of the co2 in the atmosphere, which will starve plants of the co2 they need to breathe......then they die off and stop putting out oxygen, so when you do let everyone breathe again, there is no oxygen.....no more animals breathing oxygen means no morepeople, and as a result of that, no more unnatural pollutants entering the environment.....GREAT IDEA!!!! You go first....

Answer 4

it is too late. The sudden rise in temperature has nudged the earths core a little off center which will cause the earth to flip on its axis. Then the earth will have to rebalance itself. This proccess could take sever thousand years.
But really, it we stopped producing CO then things would get better over the next few (10 maybe) years. really depends on how bad we let it get before we do anything about it. and if we can save the rain forests!!!! The lungs of earth!!

Answer 5

So-called global warming and subsequent cooling is a NATURAL cycle that our earth has been experiencing for hundreds of millions of years. Exactly what causes these cycles is far from being understood, but one thing is clear---mankind is contributing to the severity of the current cycle.

Answer 6

The climate system is pretty large and slow to react - think of trying to stop a supertanker, and you've got the idea. The effects we are seeing now are the cumulative effect of hundreds of years of greenhouse gas emissions, and will take a long time to stabilize.

Answer 7

We cannot stop all Carbon Dioxide since you and all animals breath out CO and dead plants and animals release their stored CO.

Answer 8

it will stop things from getting much worse, but what's up there will still have to wash out and that will take time

Answer 9

we just hope we can slow the proces although realy to much damage is already done. the earth is doomed

Answer 10

no it will not stop, it is the natural cycle of the earth to heat and cool
