Do you believe that we are expierencing global warming?

Question

& why do you believe this way?

Answer 1

Irrelevant.

We are experiencing a collapse of the food chain due to over-population growth.

More people, the faster the collapse. When the population goes over 7.7 billion (low) to about 10.0 billion (high), there will catastrophic collapse of the food chain.

We need to reduce head count in the entire world.

The collapse will be quick. But when it does, it would be quick and very nasty as people start fighting for food and I don't mean 3rd world countries, I mean everyone everywhere.

People won't care if it's global warming or not global warming, there will be no food to sustain all of us.

When will this tipping point occur? No one knows, but as the population grows, we will hit it.

How's that for a scary thought...

Answer 2

Everything you hear about Global Warming has to be taken with grain of salt. We know so very little about the actual history of weather and climate that anything about global warming can only be theory.

Is the Earth warmer than it was 50 years ago, Yes. But it also should be noted that the output of the sun has also increased over that same period. Could that be the reason, very much so. It only take a small change in the sun's output to alter conditions here on Earth. There have been studies done, remotely mind you, and astronomers have noted an increase in temperature on our planetary neighbors, specifically Mars, Venus and Mercury.

So we still should be mindful of what we are doing to our planet, but the planet's greatest polluter is still the planet itself.

Answer 3

When the polar caps melt, that is a good definition of global warming. also the glaciers and ice caps on the mountain tops are melting and volcanoes have become more active. I do not believe it is man made although we humans are not helping the matter in any way. Common sense tells me that the world wide rerouting of major water ways has done more to bring about global warming than anything else we could have done. Of course no country will ever agree.

Answer 4

Yes, I absolutely believe we are having global warming. Why? Because the OTHER planets in our solar system are warming up also. This is a totally natural cycle of our sun.

I do not believe man is causing global warming. I DO believe man is poisoning the heck out of the world. Many of the efforts to stop global warming also help reduce poisons released into our air, water, and earth....so you might say I'm all for global warming.

P.S. The earth is either doing one of two things...warming, or cooling and heading into an ice age. Global warming is actually much friendlier to our environment, than an ice age.

Answer 5

Yes,
The present Global Warming is a reality but its causes are still to be understood.
Urbanisation induced terrestrial reflection of radiation or albedo has increased with “Improvement of Quality of Life” and to some extent this is responsible for shifting of weather and climatic patterns. However, it cannot be said with certainty that the present Global Warming is a result of increase of albedo only.

The total annual Sun's radiation to earth and total annual evaporation from earth seems to have not changed significantly and similarly total annual precipitation has not changed except local shifting patterns.
To me main cause could be short period climatic aberrations or changes within the “Inter-Glacial” period we are living in. The earth’s history is punctuated with such short period climatic imprints within Glacial and inter Glacial periods before “Man” entered this arena.

Answer 6

I believe we are expeiriencing weather changes in the climate. Not to forget allergy season is coming earlier. Last Snow storm was about up to 2 inches unlike in 2005 there was an amount of almost a foot.

Answer 7

Yes, primarily because of an increase in solar activity and secondly because of a 20% drop in upper atmospheric aerosols over the last 15 years.

Answer 8

Yes I completely believe global warming is going on. I had to do a research paper on it and It is happening, all the signs add up.

Answer 9

New England should get it's first snow before January.

Maybe the sun got bigger or the planets shifted, too.

I believe it's too warm and I am not qualified to fix that problem.

Answer 10

we really are experiencing global warming.

First, the changes in temperature. Temp. drops in countries were it's not supposed to be that cold on certain seasons. It's either too hot or too cold.

Then flash floods everywhere. In the US for example, there are states that don't really get flooded, but now they have flash floods alot.

Another is the issue of Tornados. In the Philippines, even in areas where tornados have little or no chance to be formed actually occurs. It already has destroyed homes & livelihoods.
