WhO THE HELL IS RESPONSIBLE FOR GLOBAL WARMING?!?

Question

its always so hot now! I live in long beach, CA and its always around 85-90 degress F! I remember this one time this little kid laughed at me because he could see my BACK AND ARMPIT SWEAT during mass! OMFG NOW ITS EXTRA HARD TO GET A GIRL!

WHOS RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL THIS CRAP?! WHO IS RESPONSIBLE FOR GLOBAL WARMING!

please do not use hair products and other harmful items to the atmosphere, please, i am sweating for YOU!

Answer 1

Al Gore did it, right after he invented the internet!!

Answer 2

We're all partly responsible. The earth is also warming on its own, part of a natural cycle. The problem is probably being exacerbated by the burning of hydrocarbons, but it's impossible to tell by how much. If you would like to do your part, stop using energy. Get rid of everything that has an engine or a plug. Have the electic company disconnect the power from your home. Don't take public transportation unless it's a bicycle. Don't buy any goods, they take energy to make and to ship to stores. Feel better?

Answer 3

To be honest... we are all participating in the acts of global warming and because our government is overly focused on this whole Iraq thing than we have no money to invest in helping our earth that we are taking extremly bad care of and if it continues we won't last for another 100 yrs. My husband is in the army and they ran out of money so now at the welcome center they have him and his company working up there which he has been doing for 12 days straight and not had a break, he works from 4-12am. The government is running out of money, not being able to pay civilian is just one example, so I am not sure what we are going to do about this issue that we would think would be the BIGGEST of all. We can live life without killing our soldiers and without helping Iraqis but we can't live life if there is no plant to live it on. We are to concerned with Iraq, Africa, and other local issues such as poverty, prostitution, drugs, starving children, etc. but we have no concern for our world for the only place that accepts us for sure without any discrimination and we as "the people" cannot even take care of it.

Answer 4

There is a trailer on a movie for global warming. It's cool and explains A LOT.

I think it's from EVERYONE, but it's mainly on everybody's driving too much.

Get a fan. Put ice cubes on the bottom of your wrists. Your blood will turn cold (not literally) and you'll become cool. Eat less meat and more fruits, fluids, and veggies. Drink water even when you're not thirsty.

Answer 5

Americans are mostly responsible as they consume enormous amounts of world resources...

running air conditioners actually contributes to global warming

buying "junk" becuase the factories that make stuff pollute the skies which contributes to global warming

what can you do to help?? plant a tree, walk more - drive less, use public transit, dont buy stuff you dont need

Answer 6

ur mom ha ha i live in LA its hot and humid i know what cha mean sista no jk its not ur moms fault its everybodys faul who drives a car airplane etc.. the soke that comes out of the exhaust pipe puts harmul estrogens in the air which cause the o-zone layer to melt. the ozone layer protects the earth from harmful sun rays and once the ozone layer is all melted we will be eaith dried up dead or really hot and sweaty...

Answer 7

No kidding!!! I'm in the Northern Midwest and it's hell right now. I hate it. We are all responsible...last 35 years or so, it's gotten really bad and it will get worse until the American Government does something...why do i say them...b/c they are responsible for most of the fossil fuel consumption in the world...China is catching up.This is awful!!!

Answer 8

The one who invented the term "Global Warming".

Answer 9

Global Warming: the gradual increase of the temperature of the earth's lower atmosphere as a result of the increase in greenhouse gases since the Industrial Revolution.

The temperature of the atmosphere near the earth's surface is warmed through a natural process called the greenhouse effect. Visible, shortwave light comes from the sun to the earth, passing unimpeded through a blanket of thermal, or greenhouse, gases composed largely of water vapor, carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, and ozone. Infrared radiation reflects off the planet's surface toward space but does not easily pass through the thermal blanket. Some of it is trapped and reflected downward, keeping the planet at an average temperature suitable to life, about 60°F (16°C).

Growth in industry, agriculture, and transportation since the Industrial Revolution has produced additional quantities of the natural greenhouse gases plus chlorofluorocarbons and other gases, augmenting the thermal blanket. It is generally accepted that this increase in the quantity of greenhouse gases is trapping more heat and increasing global temperatures, making a process that has been beneficial to life potentially disruptive and harmful. During the past century, the atmospheric temperature has risen 1.1°F (0.6°C), and sea level has risen several inches. Some projected, longer-term results of global warming include melting of polar ice, with a resulting rise in sea level and coastal flooding; disruption of drinking water supplies dependent on snow melts; profound changes in agriculture due to climate change; extinction of species as ecological niches disappear; more frequent tropical storms; and an increased incidence of tropical diseases.

Among factors that may be contributing to global warming are the burning of coal and petroleum products (sources of carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, ozone); deforestation, which increases the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere; methane gas released in animal waste; and increased cattle production, which contributes to deforestation, methane production, and use of fossil fuels.

Much of the debate surrounding global warming has centered on the accuracy of scientific predictions concerning future warming. To predict global climatic trends, climatologists accumulate large historical databases and use them to create computerized models that simulate the earth's climate. The validity of these models has been a subject of controversy. Skeptics say that the climate is too complicated to be accurately modeled, and that there are too many unknowns. Some also question whether the observed climate changes might simply represent normal fluctuations in global temperature. Nonetheless, for some time there has been general agreement that at least part of the observed warming is the result of human activity, and that the problem needs to be addressed. In 1992, at the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development, over 150 nations signed a binding declaration on the need to reduce global warming.

In 1994, however, a UN scientific advisory panel, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, concluded that reductions beyond those envisioned by the treaty would be needed to avoid global warming. The following year, the advisory panel forecast a rise in global temperature of from 1.44 to 6.3°F (0.8—3.5°C) by 2100 if no action is taken to cut down on the production of greenhouse gases, and a rise of from 1 to 3.6°F (0.5—2°C) even if action is taken (because of already released gases that will persist in the atmosphere).

A UN Conference on Climate Change, held in Kyoto, Japan, in 1997 resulted in an international agreement to fight global warming, which called for reductions in emissions of greenhouse gases by industrialized nations. Not all industrial countries, however, immediately signed or ratified the accord. In 2001 the G. W. Bush administration announced it would abandon the Kyoto Protocol; because the United States produces about one quarter of the world's greenhouse gases, this was regarded as a severe blow to the effort to slow global warming. Despite the American move, most other nations agreed later in the year (in Bonn, Germany, and in Marrakech, Morocco) on the details necessary to convert the agreement into a binding international treaty, which came into force in 2005 after ratification by more than 125 nations.

Improved automobile mileage, reforestation projects, energy efficiency in construction, and national support for mass transit are among relatively simpler adjustments that could significantly lower U.S. production of greenhouse gases. More aggressive adjustments include a gradual worldwide shift away from the use of fossil fuels, the elimination of chlorofluorocarbons, and the slowing of deforestation by restructuring the economies of developing nations. In 2002 the Bush administration proposed several voluntary measures for slowing the increase in, instead of reducing, emissions of greenhouses gases.

Answer 10

BIG MANUFACTURERS ARE A BIG CAUSE PLUS A LOT OF OTHER THINGS LIKE CARS AND PEOPLE IN GENERAL. NO OFFENSE BUT JUST USE A LITTLE BO JUICE AND THAT SHOULD HELP THAT SWEATING PROBLEM...
