Do you believe in the Greenhouse affect? What can individuals do to reverse the damage to our Earth?

Question

This morning on the news they have finally said, that Global warming is real and it is our fault. Can we reverse the damage done? How? How many individuals will it take to make an impact as opposed to large manufacturers?

Answer 1

The greenhouse effect is a natural phenomena that has been well established science for many years. Without it the Earth would be very very cold. The main greenhouse gas is water vapor.

Global warming is excessive greenhouse effect caused by man. That is upsetting the natural carbon cycle balance. It's a rapid and very damaging climate change that is unnatural.

There is no hope of making it less severe unless evreyone, individuals and manufacturers, all work hard at it.

Here's some ideas for individuals.

Right now, the most important thing is that we get people together to work on it. Talk to your friends and family. Encourage people to write their political leaders to demand action.

Answer 2

The greenhouse result, first chanced on by Joseph Fourier in 1824, and familiar investigated quantitatively by Svante Arrhenius in 1896, is the technique wherein the absorption of infrared radiation by an atmosphere warms a planet. The call comes from an incorrect analogy with the way greenhouses are heated by the solar as a fashion to facilitate plant advance. to boot to the Earth, Mars, Venus and different celestial bodies with atmospheres (alongside with Titan) have greenhouse outcomes. In undemanding parlance, the term greenhouse result could be used to refer the two to the organic greenhouse result, simply by clearly occuring greenhouse gases, or to the stronger (anthropogenic) greenhouse result, which ends up from gases emitted as a results of human activities (see additionally worldwide warming, medical opinion on climate exchange and attribution of modern-day climate exchange).

Answer 3

Nope. The Vostok ice core data shows categorically that CO2 concentration has *never* caused global temperature change in 400,000 years of earth's history. So, there is no evidence that there is a greenhouse effect.
