Answer 2

You can't. The only reason is because Global Warming is a highly distorted issue, there is nothing you, me or The Kyoto Protocol and the UN can do about it. GW is a returning cycle in the earth in comes and goes every 500 -1000 years, the same way the last mini ice age came to an end in the 16 or 17 century. However exists a tend to higher temperatures due to the high emissions on carbon diox and the raise of the temperatures in the urban areas due to the increase of the population and the increase in the compsuption of energy per capita.
Watch out for indetermined parties of tree hugers or other people of indetermined procedence raising funds to fight for GW.
You might recall that USA didn't attend the Kyioto Protocol, that is because it is a bottomless pit that has no cientific backup.
For sarters there is this book, "fiction", written by Michael Crichton, State of Fear, it is a very interesting novel with a lot of info a footnotes, the bibliography is esplendid and the main theme is GW.

Answer 3

First off let me say that global warming is an easy excuse to the problem of earth's warming trend. It is an easy answer to the non-scientist or someone who only want to think in one dimension. But the truth of the matter is that humans are not the cause of global warming. Now it is an excited topic and some scientists are jumping on the bandwagon because there is a lot of money funded towards research so the more eveidence you find towards global warming the longer you keep your research project.
There is no way to stop global warming. The earth is warming because we are in the middle of the next ice age. You may ask, if we are in the middle of an ice age, why are things getting warm. This is because the earth is 4.6 Billion years old, and the earth has been going through cycles from day one. The first law of physics is that for every action there is an equal but opposite action. Applying this to the earth means that while the earth is warming now, thousands of years from now it will be covered in ice. This happens because as the earth warms, it will melt ice causing a global sea level rise, this will cover low-lying areas close to the coasts. To make this short, the opposite reaction will be millions of years of ice.
This may be a harder concept to grasp than what is suggested by many non-scientist who promote this human-impacted global warming trend. The fact is that humans have only been developed for a maximum of 200 years, by developed i mean industial age, which is responsible for atmospheric pollution. The earth is 4.6 Billion Years old and has been going through cycles since its existince. So to answer your question, humans are not the main cause for global warming, and yes humans may increase the speed of which the cycle occurs, but it was going to happen any way. please respond with any more concerns or for a more detailed answer. Remember i say an ice age is coming, but everything happens over long time periods, but short in terms of the earth. So we have thousands of years before any of this actually happens, but expect continuing rising temperatures for the duration of your lifetime.

There are tons of places her in Yahoo! Answers that have commentary on this so I'll let you dig in. However, at the end of the day you really need to see that the global warming "crisis" is simply not reality.

Read it for yourself. Close to 200,000 scientists state that there is no crisis while only 200 or so say there is. Those of us old enough to remember know that scientists were preaching about a coming ice age about 40 years ago.

Answer 5

ok i agree totally with the "smiley" girl. we dont know why the earth does these things, and when we cant find an answer we tend to blame it all on the people of this world and POLITICS. that is not the right thing to do. and the person who answered with "dont fly on planes and dont drive your car much" or something similar to that. how can people travel? yes we could drive but we would just be "helping make global warming worse". a lot of the things in this world are caused by people. but whats next? people make hurricanes? yeah right. i dont belive that this is such a thing to base your life on trying to fix it. Its good that you want to help in the world, but if you god rid of your car (to help stop global warming) how much will it really help. there are billions of people who own cars and minus one car wouldnt make the whole world a better place

Answer 6

I hear ya about wanting to help but do NOT think your use of gas & recycling stuff will make much of a diff! The glabal warming wasn't caused by just you so it'll take a lot more to correct! Ya gotta talk ya hole school or company to do the same!
