global warming?

Question

hi i wanna know if global warming, is afecting to human been? well to be more specific if global warming could be the en of the world.

Answer 1

about 30 people a day ask this exact same question. Try searching the already asked questions before you post it again. Getting REALLY sick of seeing this question several times a day. Sick of hearing about a climactic change that MIGHT happen in about 500 years. WHO CARES? get over it.

Answer 2

If we keep doing everything the same way for the next 30 years the situation will become rather drastic. I doubt it would eliminate all people though. Some of us are real survivors, and crafty planners too.

I think global warming can lead to a New Ice Age, provided it increases to the point of melting most of the polar ice.

The greatest warming is already occuring in the polar regions. The north pole is worse off because the heat is carried there via the ocean.

When hurricanes start hitting Iceland and the winter snow starts burying houses in Canada and the USA, then you will have to suppose things are serious.

This all takes some time. But measurable effects and new, strange weather is occuring everywhere -- already.

Do we need to do something now?

You betcha. Start letting science people who want to work on new power and energy go to work. Become more power efficient. Use 'green energy.'

Use wind, solar and other power to sub for fossil fuels.

Nuclear power helpful too. As long as Boston Dig types are not running the show. Needs a new Admiral Rickover at the top, all pros for quality control, monetary efficiency, and safety.

Much more possible in the future. The near future, I hope.

Answer 3

Even if every hysterical thing the Global Warming pushers are espousing were to come true, mankind would just handle it. If the great arctic ice melts we would just collect the pure fresh water probably by digging a great canal from the arctic through Canada to giant man made lakes in the vast deserts of America. Japan and Dubai have built complete man made islands. It would be simple enough to raise low lying land a few feet. We would build levees, dikes and dams to protect coastal cities. We are humans. We adapt.

But do not worry. No one is even looking at the feasibility of such things because they know it isn't going to happen. Global Warming is Phony. It is just a bunch of determined socialists trying to do as much damage to capitalist countries' economies as they can. You are being lied to on a massive scale.

Answer 4

Increase in the global average surface temperature resulting from enhancement of the greenhouse effect, primarily by air pollution. In 2001 the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change estimated that by 2100 global average surface temperatures would increase 2.5 to 10.4 °F (1.4 to 5.8 °C), depending on a range of scenarios for greenhouse gas emissions. Many scientists predict that such an increase would cause polar ice caps and mountain glaciers to melt rapidly, significantly raising the levels of coastal waters, and would produce new patterns and extremes of drought and rainfall, seriously disrupting food production in certain regions. Other scientists maintain that such predictions are overstated. The 1992 Earth Summit and the 1997 Kyoto Protocol to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change attempted to address the issue of global warming, but in both cases the efforts were hindered by conflicting national economic agendas and disputes between developed and developing nations over the cost and consequences of reducing emissions of greenhouse gases.

Answer 5

Global Warming is definatly affecting human beings. Less people are moving on the coasts

Answer 6

The global warming is end of human nonsense,not of the world.

Answer 7

not the end of the world.
not by a long shot.
the end of human life though.
global warming, whether it is caused by humans or not, seems to be happening, and if it gets too warm, it might be difficult for us humans to survive the way we do now.
if the sea level rises, all seaside cities will be underwater, if it gets too hot, much food production may be lost...
who knows... all i know is we shouldnt take a chance.
we should act now.
