please post YOUR OWN opinion on global warming impacts on our next generation i am willing to listen and know more about others thoughs on it thx.

please pm me for great ideas.

Global Warming is an over used buzz word… the world’s temperature has been fluctuating since the earth formed some 4.6 billion years ago. This is down to sun spots, which increase or decrease the solar energy out put, which in turn lowers or raises the temperature of the planet. Volcanic activity releases carbon and other dust practicals in to the earth’s atmosphere, this in turn acts as a blank and lowers the global temperature.

Yeah but Fade, humans aren't helping. We will end up being the cause of a early global warming.

Yea I know, the thing is as the global temperature is rising, scientists are not sure if this is natural or done by man. The big polluters, like USA, China and India are not helping the problem.

Of course we should do something, but China lets says, will not spend money on trying to save the planet, due to the fact that the western world has had 200 years of pumping as much carbons as they like in to the air.

hopefully with the research to alternitive fuels and hydrogen cars, we can lower our carbon-dioxide output some over the next few years

After just doing an assignment on global warming, I have come to the conclusion that both side agree that humans are raising the levels of CO2, and the temp is higher than average. The anti-global warming side argues that it is part of a natural cycle of heating and cooling, and it has happened before during the Medieval Warming Period. This 200 year period was then followed by the "Little Ice Age". They also argue that factors such as solar activity and volcanic activity also contribute to the warming, and are out of our hands. The pro-global warming side argues that the extra CO2 will cause disturbances in cloud formation, which will create more clouds, therefore not allowing the heat to leave the Earth and the clouds will also store heat since they are made of water vapor. There is already evidence of the warming seen in the glaciers in Greenland and Antarctica. Many of the spots that were ice a few centuries ago have melted away.

haha thx guys, ill be sucha pro.... anyways, i have an extention so keep on posting

No, Fade's right, it's horrendously overused.
Anyway, there's no such thing as global warming. Sea levels aren't rising, temperatures aren't likely to fluctuate more than .8 of a degree in the next hundred years. Maybe they will, maybe they won't. We don't know because we don't know enough about global climate and the weather.

If you examine the temperatures over the last 180 odd years in places that kept data (Carbon emissions dramatically rose from the 1850's or there abouts) you'll find that some places (Large cities such as New York and London) are the maine places where the temperature is rising. But this is more attributed to urbanisation than carbon levels. Many places are infact, getting cooler - for example the antarctic where the ecological system has been damaged over the last decade because temperatures are becoming too cold for the current flora and fauna. And since 90% of the worlds ice is in the Antarctic, we haven't got too much to worry about. Or Greenland, where the ice is infact expanding, rather than melting like in other areas.

On the subject of 'rising sea levels', if you also happen to examine data on sea levels, you'll find that although some ocean levels are rising, others are falling. Oceans, like the rest of the world are in a constant period of fluctuation.

If you want I'll even provide scientific reports to corroborate everything I've just said. tongue.gif

Not to mention CFCs. sad.gif

Global warming has been happening since the earth first formed.
It was the hottest when the dinosaurs were around, then was cooled off by Ice Age.

Humans are making an Impact, although it is not entirely our fault.
The sun is running out of Hydrogen and Helium to cool itself down, by far making it warmer.

'Nuff said.

Edit: just realised this tread is kinda old. :-\

If polar bears are being endangerd then we really need to stop destroying the o zone layer. DOWN WITH POLLUTION! UP WITH RECYCLING! DOWN WITH SMOKING! UP WITH SMOKE PATCHES! realmad.gif

we also need to stop with the nuclear bombing that doesnt help either. And i say we need to give china, india and us to stop freaking polluting our air! Who here watched the inconveinent truth say I! That movie is scaring the heck outta me

I say let life go on as it goes on. In the years ahead, scientist, one way or another, will find a way to help stop any dangerous global activity. If we can create a peice of beating heart tissue from an ink jet cartridge in a modified computer printer, then I think we can defeat this.

Global warming is the observed increase in the average temperature of the Earth's atmosphere and oceans. During the years of 1860 – 1900, global temperatures on both land and sea have increased by 0.75˚C. It is expected that the global temperature raise an average of 4.2˚C from 1990 – 2100. The main cause of global warming is the emission of greenhouse gases from common human activities. The burning of fossil fuel and deforestation contributes to the emission of greenhouse gases. The greenhouses gas build up and absorb more of the infrared radiation from the sun, and increase the global temperature.
