Verdie Wollen: Global warming is causing many things. One needs to make the distinction between global warming, a natural event occurring many times in the past, with the concept that man causes global warming, Anthropogenic Global Warming (AGW).For your paper I would stick with things like these. The claims of mass extinction can not be validated. Glaciers are melting. Growing seasons are being modified.Weather patterns are changing (Not necessarily increasing but changing)The oceans get warmer.Certain areas that were not livable do to extreme cold become warm enough that people can live there and plant crops now.The ocean currents will change as sources of fresh water grow and change....Show more

Delmer Pectol: 1. Arctic melting --> polar bear extinct2. Oceans warming --> coral reefs destroyed, animal extinction3. Se! a level rising -->island nations underwater --> million refugees --> food shortage --> famine4. Extreme weather events --> Increased earthquakes, tsunamis5. Earth will be hotter up to 5 degrees...Show more
Clay Lipira: it's causing people's brains to melt(mainly the believers)causing food to grow in the north(Where its cold)it's causing an uprising of hippies and *snicker* environmental movements!it helps spread lies and propoganda!it helps governments get into powerenough for you?...Show more
Simona Bulwinkle: The difference in "greenhouse gases" amounts to about 3.14 W/m^2 increase in "forcing" since 1750 (see CDIAC link). The total amount of the sun's warming totals 1353 W/m^2, so that's about 0.23 percent, up from 1750, the Little Ice Age. It was nice to have things warm up a fraction of a degree since that time, and those (14 percent human; see cdiac link: FAQ #7) greenhouse gases (that are largely a result of the natural warm-up) have a minimal effect, and! normal climate changes have been exaggerated in the downstrea! m media according to their own self-serving tendency towards sensationalism....Show more
Rayford Latz: Excess CO2 emissions and hot air from media and political pundits.
Bryan Avinger: Some of the more obvious ones like:The ice caps melting therefore rising water levelsTemps are starting to rise screwing up the weather and suchPolar bears are starting to disappear therefore becoming an endangered speciesItâs messing with animal migratory patternsSorry thatâs all iv'e got good luck...Show more
Douglass Sarley: Many things cause global warming. One thing that causes global warming is electrical pollution. Electricity causes pollution in many ways, some worse than others. In most cases, fossil fuels are burned to create electricity. Fossil fuels are made of dead plants and animals. Some examples of fossil fuels are oil and petroleum. Many pollutants (chemicals that pollute the air, water, and land) are sent into the air when fossil fuels are burned.! Some of these chemicals are called greenhouse gasses.We use these sources of energy much more than the sources that give off less pollution. Petroleum, one of the sources of energy, is used a lot. It is used for transportation, making electricity, and making many other things. Although this source of energy gives off a lot of pollution, it is used for 38% of the United Statesâ energy....Show more
Jinny Dronen: 1: more, more powerful wind storms,2:More water vapor above the oceans as a result of 1:3: More rain, snow, hail as a result of 1:4: Ocean surface temperatures rise5: extra snow lands on top of Antarctic glaciers a result of 3.6: more Antarctic glaciers pushed off into the ocean as result of 57: more intense flooding As a result of 3:8: precipitation is falls in highly repetitive pattern causing both 7 and widespread drought in areas rain does not fall. with this desertification.No way in hell does global warming cause increase of earthquakes or tsunami! s. There are no island nations flooded out recently.Ocean levels have n! ot yet begun to rise in recent years because Antarctic glaciers are still increasing. Way back when the last great ice age was weakening, the ocean levels did rise many meters as the glaciers melted off. but we have not had that scale of melt off in millennia....Show more
