I heard that other planets are experiencing global warming also. If that is?

Question

true, then how can global warming be the fault of humans?

Answer 1

Yes - It is the Sun, not man who is causing warming.

Here is an excellent article from a Russian scientist who describes the process that is causing the system to warm

"Global warming results not from the emission of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, but from an unusually high level of solar radiation and a lengthy - almost throughout the last century - growth in its intensity," Abdusamatov told RIA Novosti in an interview.

"Instead of professed global warming, the Earth will be facing a slow decrease in temperatures in 2012-2015. The gradually falling amounts of solar energy, expected to reach their bottom level by 2040, will inevitably lead to a deep freeze around 2055-2060," he said, adding that this period of global freeze will last some 50 years, after which the temperatures will go up again.

Answer 2

A couple of other planetary bodies (planets + moons) are warming. A couple more are cooling. The vast majority are seeing no significant temperature change.

When people talk about warming on other planets, they're suggesting that the Sun is responsible for our global warming (since it's the only thing our solar system has in common). However, if the Sun were responsible, then almost every planetary body should be warming, not just a couple.

On top of that, we don't have to look at other planets. We have satellites monitoring the Sun's output, and it has remained essentially unchanged over the past 30 years as global warming on Earth has accelerated rapidly.

Scientists have determined that human greenhouse gas emissions are responsible for 80-90% of the warming over the past 30 years.

Answer 3

When you talk about other planets, we haven't examined them in anywhere near the detail we've examined the earth and we know precious little about the physics of the climate on earth.

Mars is the planet which has been studied in the most detail and it's been specluated that it's warming because the ice caps are shrinking. The fact that Mars has apparently changed in albedo has generated a lot of excitement among climate scientists, but NASA only attributes the minor change in albedo to about 30% of the observed ice loss.

It has been speculated that pluto is warming because it's changing in colour suggests that the solid nitrogen on it's surface is subliming. Also it's been speculated that the apparent increase in opacity of the atmosphere of Triton suggests warming on that body.

The science here seems highly speculative as we don't have thermometers in outer space. We can't even see how big Pluto is, and it's estimated size had reduced by a factor of 100 since the 1950's.

Answer 4

certainly, the straightforward temperature has been increasing ever in view that we left the mini ice age at the back of around the 300 and sixty 5 days 1850. In Ohio, common interior the final 30 years we've been warmer now then we've been interior the previous due 1970's. at present, this summer season is surprisingly cool yet that happens that is a factor of the organic cycle of issues. Does this info man made climate exchange? No, it only states that when exiting a international minimum, most of the international will heat up.

Answer 5

Here's a full description of the so-called global warming on Mars:

The fact that certain atmospheric changes are happening on other planets does not negate the fact that climate change on Earth is being exacerbated by human influence.

Answer 6

Well, I heard that people were dying in Darfur. If that's true, how can America be responsible for deaths in Iraq?

Using your logic, it makes just as much sense.

On the other hand, maybe it's possible that there are different causes of death in different places. But that might also mean that there could be different causes of climate change on different planets too -- and don't we have to reject that idea out of hand?

Answer 7

A few planets are warming, for different reasons.

Not all of them, so it's not the Sun.

On Mars, it's giant dust storms, unique to Mars. Proof:

Global warming is mostly due to us. Proof, from the source below:

WOW Exellent Question!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
But I wish I knew More.I'm working on a presentation on it and presenting it tommorow to my classroom.I'm a student.
Answer my Question,please?
