Many people need to answer this question to make it work. Are you concerned about Climate Change?

Question

I asked a similair question recently, which received 20 answers. Ideally I need more to get a good idea of peoples views. Can you answer either YES or NO with a quick explanation and possibly, which bit of the UK you live in; ie North East, London, Midlands etc. I need some idea of views for my case study on Abrupt Cliamte Change

Answer 1

No.

Because I'm far from convinced that we are causing it, far from convinced that we can do anything about it and similarly far from convinced that it will be anywhere near as much of a problem as some scaremongerers are suggesting (no matter how much they might lie about it, to make it sound as frightening as they can!) .

Answer 2

Yes. Climate change is a natural occurrence; however, we are rapidly accelerating this process making the climatic changes too fast for many species to adapt to. Also it will have a big effect on economies globally if no action is taken. In a way I'm more concerned about the lack of effort being taken for us to adapt to future climates than I am about the actual change. Bristol, England (The West Country!)

Answer 3

Yes, But Climate Change is Inevitable ,always has been always will be , but the Polution of the Rivers , Lakes , Sea,s and the Land Mass is not , Man Alone is responsible for controlling and cleaning up his own Mess and Pollution

Answer 4

YES! Not shure about the UK location though, cause i'm in Spain.... HUUGE climate change over here!!!

ps: i re-edited my answer after reading some the other answers. Really?? Some people actually believe that we have no effect over the climate change??...shocked.... i suppose of course that we are not responsible for water pollution either?? Deforestarion?? Viruses?? ....still shocked....

What’s taking position to the elements? in this sequence: * the elements—Is something incorrect? * what's taking position to the elements? * no extra climate failures! suitable topics: * international Warming—Is Planet Earth at probability? * organic failures—Are They Getting Worse? * Jesus' Miracles—historic previous or fantasy? the elements—Is something incorrect? "at the same time as 2 Englishmen meet, their first communicate is of the elements." So quipped the renowned author Samuel Johnson. in present day years, though, the elements has grow to be more beneficial than a communique starter. It has grow to be a count number of grave issue to human beings around the international. Why? because the elements—which replaced into continually unpredictable besides—seems steadily extra erratic.

Answer 6

Yes! Its disheartening to see so many responses being "no". That there has been a sharp increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide, inter alia, in the last 100 years is no coincidence. There is factual, observed data that proves beyond doubt (at least to those with intact logical reasoning skills), a positive correlation between human activity (depleting of fossil fuels, which are carbon-based by the way) and atmospheric carbon dioxide levels. Undisposed fossil fuels are vast carbon stores tucked harmlessly beneath the earth's surface. When they are brought to the surface, they become exposed to the atmosphere (duh). Trees sequester carbon and release oxygen: they are carbon fixers. When trees are cut, they die and no longer provide this function. Their roots no longer filter water, they no longer exchange fresh oxygen for carbon dioxide, etc. Humans cut trees in large quantities. Do the math...I could go on forever, but it was supposed to be short and sweet...I'm sure others could carry on where I left off...so I'll leave it at that...sorry.
Oh yeah...Canada.

Answer 7

Yes - natural variation does happen but can't explain the extreme rate of change that we're experiencing - the most likely explanation is human activity, and it's time to do something about it!

I'm in Oxford, btw.

Answer 8

Yes! EXTREMELY concerned by the slowness of governments to take real action. We only have a limited window of between 10-15 years to take radical action and we are already NOT doing enough either in the UK or across the planet as a whole. Climate change requires ALL governments to be involved, action needs to be global and co-ordinated in some way.

**for example cheap flights have to stop, its just not sustainable and we cannot carrying on as if nothing will happen.

**I'm extremely sceptical that carbon trading will make one jott of difference in carbon emmissions across the planet.

Answer 9

yes and I have taken the threat seriously. I am the one who worked out the world largest potential carbon store: Glacial clathrate storage. I just this month, I believe I finally have a viable method for air capture of carbon. Others agree and have agreed to finance the initial proving work with a million pounds!!!

Answer 10

Certainly every one must be concerned. With our way of living we have induced global warming and climatic changes are the resullt. If something is not done now we will be facing more natural calamities and food related problems soon.
