is global warming that bad? what do you think?

Question

listen its the melting of the snow and the sea level rises yes there will be flood but atleast we will have more water.

Answer 1

if it has turned your land into a dessert or burried your village under the dust .or has washed your house away ,with a flood ,maybe even killed your whole family ,,what do you think ????,this is good .

It depends on where you live ,
Not everybody in the world lives in North America

We will have more salt water ,but far less sweet water to drink or to grow food with
or dont you need to drink or eat

Check out where the water is that we can drink or use for irrigation
25% of the planets surface is land
75%of the surface is water and it is rising

------------------------------...

97%of the Earths water is salt

fresh water is only 3% of all the Earths water
most of it is beyond out reach

now much ice is melting and running into the seas fresh water lost for ever.

STORAGE or Location of % of the fresh water
ice and glaziers 74%
groundwater 800 meters + 13.5 %
groundwater less than 800meters 11.o%
Lakes 0.3%
soils 0.006%
Atmospheric in circulation 0.0035%
rivers 0.03%


frozen land or permafrost is not included and represent an unavailable storage of 40%

so of the 3% about 11.6 ,is easily available to us ,in rivers, lakes and ground water surface aquifers,more and more of this is becoming contaminated

Answer 2

The earth is recovering from an Ice Age. Global warming is how the earth has always recovered from Ice Ages.

When using temperature charts that start much earlier in earth's history, it is fairly obvious that the pattern has always been a very rapid increase back to the stable average temperature.

That doesn't mean that humans are not to blame for a lot of the environmental issues. We are. We just are not to blame for this one.

The first chart in the sources shows how 'all over the chart CO2 has been.

Also, all of the charts that the global warmth alarmists use will fit on the very small upward movement at the far right end of these charts, neither of which come from an anti-global warming source.

Both are from studies of all the known Ice Ages of earth's history

Their charts are accurate, however, they are being presented to you in a very deceptive way.

Answer 3

I have to LOVE all these folks who think that glaciers melting into the oceans means that water is lost forever. Yeah...right. And yet, the global warming will be so bad that somehow it DOESN'T lead to increased evaporation?!? Not to mention that the Greenhouse effect due to the DREADED carbon dioxide is limited almost entirely to the lower portions of the troposphere and has little or no effect on cloud formation.

We won't go into the effects of increased albedo or the precipitation that - surprising as it may be to the thicker headed alarmists - returns fresh water back to the surface.

I suppose that if you were a Mayfly, it might seem like "forever"...

Answer 4

There won't be a flood. When enough of the glacier water has flown into the ocean, the currents that warm the north atlantic will stop flowing, causing the air at the pole to become colder and re-freezing the glaciers. When the glaciers have re-formed enough, the currents will flow again, the climate will warm, etc etc. This has been the natural cycle for centuries. It is we humans in our fragile society that need to learn to adapt.

Answer 5

The sun is more active now than it has been in about 1000 yrs. During the little ice age it was less active and that coupled with some other issues like a high number of volcanic activity caused the entire globe to cool. Roughly 95-97% of greenhouse gas is water vapor while 3-5% is CO2. Of the CO2 only about 5-8% comes from humans so in the totality, about a third of a percent of all greenhouse gases come from humans. Interesting isnt it. How could a planet that is part of a galaxy and solar system and universe that basically made itself, be able to change its own temperature. wow.

Answer 6

No. I seriously doubt it will be as bad as the alarmists say it wil be. I think that that is all a bunch of fancy rhetoric and lies to make us force ourselves to believe them because we're scared, however weak their science is (which, coincidentally, if you research the science against what the alarmists say, you might be surprised at how many flaws and flat-out lies that there are, so expertly hidden.)

I would go into detail myself, but why take my word for it? I recommend watching "The Great Global Warming Swindle," which is available on Google, or at least was when I saw it (I hope they haven't removed it or something. If it's not there, you could always check YouTube.) The movie features many scientists explaining their views on global warming. It is an excellent place to begin, as it costs no money.

If you are willing to spend money, however, the best guide to debunking global warming alarmism that I have ever read is "The Politically Incorrect Guide to Global Warming and Environmentalism" by Christopher Horner. There is also a special chapter specifically written to refute Al Gore's "An Inconvenient Truth," if you have seen the movie or read the book by that name.

Both of these are excellent sources. Enjoy!

Answer 7

If you look back through time you will see that global warming is a natural occurance.
There are times it is really wet and lush and then there are times that it is drier than dry.
Just as there have been times that winter has been warm and summer hot for 5-10 years and then all of a sudden the winter is so cold that everything is frozen and the summer is mild.
Just look at the times of the dinosaurs and then the ice age followed by another green period.

Answer 8

Yes! Global warming is really that bad! I don't know about you but I have already seen the effects of it. Yes there are floods but also there have been unusual weather patterns.

Your right, we will have more water but not drinking water or fresh water. And as it is more then half the earth is water so where will we live if all the coastal cities and towns are under water. Lord knows the planet is over populated as it is.

Answer 9

Can't drink seawater.

But--here's one (relatively minor) consequence: How many billlions do you think it would cost to build a seawall around the 30+ shoreline of Manhatten. Now multiply that by every single seacoast city and town in the world.

That's a BIG number.

Then there's the losses of all the rest of the shoreline facilities that now exist, including the lost o fsome of the most productive agricultural land in the world.

And the cost and disruption of some areas (possibly including parts of America's "breadbasked" heartland, losing much of its productivity.

And then theres. . . .but I think you get the idea, and I need to log off and get some sleep!

Answer 10

Not only will there be floods in some areas, but there will be massive droughts in other places because of the unusual weather patterns. Also, alot of the big cities will be flooded. Now, it wouldn't be so bad if we had a way to transport tons of water from place to place but we won't, especially since that water probably will not be potable
