The Factors Beyond Debate: Cause of global warming and expert solutions

Extra hot air causes global warming

No matter what anyone says, the great debate about the cause of global warming continues.  We have a name for the debate over whether global warming is a fixable problem: The Global Warming Controversy.

Three parts: whether it even exists, how it came about & how it'll change the world, and what we can do about it.  According to some credible sources, ongoing debates are more political and economic than scientific, and a few basic premises are already settled.

You might love this article because it dives deep into global warming, offering different perspectives and explanations.  It explains sunspots, greenhouse gases, and their impact on climate change in an accessible way.  By exploring different theories and providing evidence, we encourage critical thinking.  

Furthermore, documentaries that challenge conventional ideas, making for thought-provoking and lively discussion.  Find a hint at possible solutions, highlighting the role of consulting firms like Calvin Consulting.  The multifaceted exploration can inspire us all to learn about environmental science, develop analytical skills, and think about how to make the world a better place.

In the last century or so, surface-based temperature observations have shown an increase.  Three quarters of a degree Celsius (1.4 °F) is a big deal.

Why?  Many reporters say the greenhouse effect traps heat and carbon dioxide is mostly responsible.  Some solid physical theory backs up the argument global warming activists use.  It includes everything from sunspot cycles to Milankovitch cycles.

There's no doubt about it, the greenhouse effect works.  Day and night, it keeps us comfortable.

A cause of global warming related stress:

It's the GOVERNMENT, but don't worry.  Help's on the way.  Have you heard of Calvin Consulting?  The company calculates greenhouse gas emissions for industrial facilities like yours and submits them to the government.  Call us. 

These gases include carbon dioxide (CO2), methane, nitrous oxide, and especially water vapour.  Why water vapor?  Because we have so much of it.  Global warming has been caused by it since the beginning.

That's not quite right.  Go figure, the sun's the only thing causing global warming.  It's where most of the earth's energy comes from.  We'd definitely notice a difference if something blocked the sun's rays.  What's blocking us from the sun?

• Clouds.
• Aerosols from pollution and volcanic eruptions.
• The moon, as in an eclipse.
• What about the earth?

What's the name of that condition where our planet blocks sunlight?  Oh yeah, it's night. Also, it's cooler then.

What about the recent rise in global warming?  In recent decades, this has been the biggest debate.  According to the most popular theory, temperature increases happened after CO2 levels went up.

Al Gore points out in An Inconvenient Truth that the two measured variables have increased and decreased at approximately the same time.  There's little dispute over those records (except for who came first).  It's been a long time since CO2 levels were over 400 parts per million, since these measurements began at the top of Mauna Loa in 1958.

Another plausible cause of global warming

According to some challengers to the most popular global warming theory, the sun's energy output sun's energy output actually affects global temperatures and conditions.  This statement might make sense too.

Some even say sunspots deflect cosmic rays from the depths of space with their stronger rays.  Clouds form because the solar rays prevent extra-solar rays from hitting our air.  As we know, less cloud cover means less stuff blocking the sun.  We'll know more as we progress through this relatively-weak Sunspot Cycle #25.

As a result, increased sunspot activity leads to higher earth-surface temperatures. Unconfirmed.  However, it needs more detail and current meteorology research.  

Compare this sample with the major graph in this title

There's an 11-year cycle to sunspot activity, and some people think that cycle might affect global warming.  It's suggested that solar activity has a very small effect on the Earth's climate compared to human activities, like burning fossil fuels.

Sunspots can affect the amount of solar radiation reaching the Earth's surface, but they don't have an overwhelming impact on long-term climate trends.  Over the past few decades, studies have shown that solar radiation has actually decreased, while global temperatures have risen.

This line of research says global warming and climate change are primarily caused by human activities like burning fossil fuels, deforestation, and agriculture.  The activities are causing greenhouse gases, like carbon dioxide, to build up in the atmosphere, which trap heat and cause the planet to warm.

Solar activity is interesting, but it's not the only factor in climate change.  Climate change might be addressed by reducing greenhouse gas emissions and switching to cleaner energy sources.

That's one way of thinking.  In the Great Global Warming Swindle, it's suggested that this cycle of incoming energy drives temperature changes, which then dictate CO2 concentrations.

As much as 800 years later.  Oceans store CO2 better when the water temperature is colder.  As a result, seawater releases dissolved CO2.  That's according to THIS theory.

Scam of The Great Global Warming Swindle is another interesting documentary.  Milankovitch cycles change both temperatures and carbon dioxide levels, it says.

These documentaries also remind us that things can affect each other simultaneously.  As a result, there's a multi-loop feedback.  One thing changes the other slightly, then those changes affect the first again, then the new changes affect the second, and so on.  It's kind of like a tennis match.  It might take several ripples for a balance to emerge like a multilayer Fourier transform boundary value problem.

Are there any other causes of global warming?  If possible, please elaborate.

Global Warming, do you know what it's all about?
