what effect would shortage of water on the planet, i.e. water stored in toilet cisterns..storage tanks..water boilers, car rads etc bottled water..anything that stores water for a time, therefore not releasing it to evaporate.Ponder this from your own home then extrapolate to global..hhhmmmmm????

there would always be water even if it sweats out of us.
we drink the bottled water >> comes out through the breath and as sweat
water comes out of the car exhaust also
water evaporating from all the heat? forming clouds? maybe maybe not
the water cannot excape our system so no prob.
actaully, water vapour is the biggest ghg
bigger than co2 so who really who's what could happen
i believe that all that bullshit that scientists say probably is wrong and we think that it is the fault of global warming.
Please remember that the main reasons for soil erosion, salination, floods, droughts, famines, the collapse of coral reefs and the extinction of species are habitat destruction, overgrazing and over-fishing -- not a 0.9% rise in trapped radiance

NO The main gas is CO2 and with all the fuels that we burn there must be billions of cf. out there u would think so, but it is not so. Measure the CO2 and u will find 1 to 2 parts per million which it has been for many years ,well where did it go, we have another Alie the green plants and they absorber CO2 and put out oxygen just like they are supposed to. If there is such a low count of CO2 there is no green house gas causing global warming. the earth is doing a great job of recycling our air.

Storage of domestic water is totally insignificant: there is about a billion cubic kilometers of ocean, which far exceeds any amount of water that humans can handle -- now, or ever. As for global warming, the cause is in hot dispute. Carbon dioxide is commonly named as a culprit, and it is true that atmospheric concentrations of the stuff have increased about 10% in the last forty years or so. But there is fifty times as much CO2 dissolved in the ocean as there is in the air. And, temperature changes have been occurring forever -- remember the Ice Ages?

CFCs are not causing global warming, they are causing ozone depletion.
Storing water in closed containers will not reduce evaporation at all. I am not saying the difference is small, I am saying the difference is zero. That is because evaporation rate depends on the surface area of water and not the number of gallons of water. A square mile of water 1 inch deep produces just as much water vapor every second by evaporation as a square mile of water a mile deep.

CFC's and noxious gas may have a small greenhouse effect bu it would be very minimal. These are issues because of ozone layer depletion and health concerns. Trapped water would actually have a cooling effect since water vapor is a greenhouse gas. But the amount of water trapped is suvh a small percentae of the total amount of water on earth, it would make almost no difference.

We contribute to it but not near to the scale that the fear merchants try to pander to you.
The world has been in an ever increasing warming cycle for thousands of years. Deep ice-core samples don't lie.
We can't stop the warming, we can slow it minutely.
Imagine if we were headed to an ice-age...Do you think we could stop it? That's like trying to stop a volcano from erupting or earthquake from happening.
Global warming is nothing more than a replacement for the failed "Hole in the ozone layer" nonsense of a decade ago.
Ask your self this? Who's cashing in on this? Gore comes to mind for one.
