Question

Not all scientists agree with commonly held views on global warming. Describe at least three issues on which there is some disagreement.

Answer 1

Answer:

The global warming controversy concerns the public debate over whether global warming is occurring, how much has occurred in modern times, what has caused it, what its effects will be, whether any action can or should be taken to curb it, and if so what that action should be. In the scientific literature, there is a strong consensus that global surface temperatures have increased in recent decades and that the trend is caused by human-induced emissions of greenhouse gases.[1][2][3][4][5][6] No scientific body of national or international standing disagrees with this view,[7] though a few organizations with members in extractive industries hold non-committal positions,[8] and some have attempted to convince the public that climate change is not happening, or if the climate is changing it is not because of human influence,[9] attempting to sow doubt in the scientific consensus.[10]

Answer 2

Explanation:

• Scientific arguments against the idea that human activity is to blame for climate change are among the opposing viewpoints of the hypothesis.
• There are a variety of perspectives among scientists and the general public that are opposed to the idea that human activity is causing climate change.
• 97 percent of climate experts who are currently publishing work concur that humans are to blame for global warming and climate change.
• Volcanic eruptions, modifications to the Earth's orbit, and changes to the Earth's crust are examples of natural factors that affect the climate (known as plate tectonics).
• The Earth has gone through a sequence of ice ages during the past million years, encompassing colder (glacials) and warmer (interglacials) periods (interglacials).
