global warming, there is no doubt something is happening BUT?

Question

i just read a nasa report that shows the sun over the last several years is getting hotter and is growing in size,, could this be a factor

Answer 1

You read wrong. Or maybe just misunderstood what you read. The Sun is growing and brightening by about 1% per 100,000,000 years, but that is way too slow to account for the warming of the last 100 years. The Sun does go through cycles of more and less energy output every 11 years, but it doesn't go up and up, it goes up and down again, every 11 years. And it only goes up and down by about 0.1%

Answer 2

I'm sure it is a factor, But the important thing to ask is how big that factor is. NASA has done a report, and I'm sure it will be followed up and taken into the equations.

It is important to note that this faactor and others like them do not disprove the greenhose gas theory.

It is also important to note how foolish it would be to change one's view of the scientific consencus with every report that comes out. The scientists have a job to do, let them get on with it. It falls on the rest of us to act on thier findings, otherwise all that research will be totally fruitless.

Answer 3

I believe without a doubt that the Earth's climate naturally has its ups and downs. This is not to say that we do not have an impact on these ups and downs.

Answer 4

It could be one factor, however it seems that here on Earth, greenhouse gas emissions also have a significant effect.
