All of our cars are giving off gas, therefore putting a hole in our atmosphere and letting more heat in to melt the polar ice caps. Two Schools of Thought There is much debate about the causes of global warming. Some scientists produce evidence to show a ten year natural cycle of warming and cooling, with speculations that cycles of larger fluctuations have also occurred naturally in the earth's history. These scientists believe that the economic activity of mankind is counteracted by natural environmental forces which have always caused climates to undergo change. Other scientists believe that because there is currently a lot of economic activity in which carbon emissions are a feature of concern, environmentalists must work to ensure that unnecessary energy use is reduced and carbon levels in the atmosphere are brought down or chaos and catastrophe will overtake the planet with plant and animal life becoming extinct.
The economy contributes to global warming through activities such as burning fossil fuels for energy production, transportation, and industrial processes. Increased economic activity often leads to higher greenhouse gas emissions, which trap heat in the atmosphere and contribute to global warming. Additionally, deforestation and land-use changes driven by economic activities can also release carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.
they cause it by doing pretty much everything driving cars, grillin out, and a big cause is factories because there is a layer of gases in the world called the ozone layer and this layer protects us from dangerous rays of the sun and these gases from factories are destroying this layer so therefore the dangerous rays are leaking into the atmosphere which is melting all the ice in Antarctica and causing dangerously hot temperatures which cause heat stroke and fires.
A: Global warming puts more heat into the atmosphere, and heat is energy. This energy is expended in stronger winds, more powerful weather events, changes in rainfall patterns, changes in ocean currents. All these things must inevitably result in climate change.
Some of the predicted events, which are already beginning to occur, include rising sea levels, more damaging floods, more severe and prolonged droughts, and more severe storms.
What we call the greenhouse effect occurs when atmospheric gases known as greenhouse gases trap the sun's heat on the earth. They do this by letting visible sunlight through to the earth's surface, which then warms and emits heat as infrared radiation, which is partly stopped by the greenhouse gases.
When we speak of global warming, we usually mean the rise in average global temperatures since the beginning of the Industrial Age. This is mainly caused because the atmospheric concentration of carbon dioxide has increased by over 35 per cent, from the long-term range of 260-280 parts per million (ppm) to the present level of over 380 ppm and rising. The more carbon dioxide there is in the atmosphere, the warmer the earth will get. Another greenhouse gas that has made a significant contribution to global warming is methane, which is a far more potent greenhouse gas but fortunately exists in much lower concentrations.
Urbanization simply causes global warming, as many people from rural areas move out and go into the city. An example of this is China. China requires a lot of workers to operate the power plants. When workers go into the city and live normally , they add to the demand of people living in the city anyway. This then goes into a never ending cycle of more demand, " more workers". This doesn't just apply to china but happens around the world. this then makes more non-renewable resources used up faster.

There are many ways that countries' economies may be affected:
Greenhouse gasses are the cause of Global Warming.
Polar bears do not cause global warming. In fact, polar bears are affected by global warming due to the shrinking of their sea ice habitat. The loss of sea ice reduces their hunting grounds and threatens their survival.
No, Hurricane Katrina caused flooding and terrible damage to humans and property, but it did not cause global warming. Global warming is caused among other things by man burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) and putting greenhouse gases into the atmosphere.
The name given to gases that trap heat and cause global warming is Greenhouse gases.
Global warming is an effect of climate change. Climate change refers to long-term changes in temperature, precipitation, and other atmospheric conditions. Global warming specifically refers to the increase in Earth's average surface temperature due to human activities like burning fossil fuels.
Yes, it is. It is responsible for global warming.
Global warming is a cause of the ozone depletion. However it is not the main cause of it.
There is no such thing as "a global warming" global warming only happens to earth because human and our unruly decrease in the earths resources. HUMANS cause global warming.
No. While events on the earths crust can cause global warming, the crust itself does not.
global warming or economy
No.
The main cause of thinning is CFC's. Global warming also affects it.
Greenhouse gasses are the cause of Global Warming.
Polar bears do not cause global warming. In fact, polar bears are affected by global warming due to the shrinking of their sea ice habitat. The loss of sea ice reduces their hunting grounds and threatens their survival.
Ozone depletion causes global warming. This then causes global temperature to change.
Ozone depletion can cause global warming. It is due to the plankton death.
Global warming is the main cause for our drastic changes in temperature.
