Explanation:

Conspiracy

No environmental issue is more polarizing than global climate change. Many on the left fear increases in atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases threaten an environmental apocalypse while many on the right believe anthropogenic global warming is much ado about nothing and, at worst, a hoax. Both sides pretend as if the climate policy debate is, first and foremost, about science, rather than policy. This is not so. There is substantial uncertainty about the scope, scale, and consequences of anthropogenic warming, and will be for some time, but this is not sufficient justification for ignoring global warming or pretending that climate change is not a serious problem.

Though my political leanings are most definitely right-of-center, and it would be convenient to believe otherwise, I believe there is sufficient evidence that global warming is a serious environmental concern. I have worked on this issue for twenty years, including a decade at the Competitive Enterprise Institute where I edited this book. I believe human activities have contributed to increases in greenhouse concentrations, and these increases can be expected to produce a gradual increase in global mean temperatures. While substantial uncertainties remain as to the precise consequences of this increase and consequent temperature rise, there is reason to believe many of the effects will be quite negative. Even if some parts of the world were to benefit from a modest temperature increase -- due to, say, a lengthened growing season -- others will almost certainly lose.

Provable consequences of global warming

Explanation:

  • The consequences of global warming or climate disruption include far-reaching, long-term changes to the environment, human populations, and ecosystems directly/indirectly triggered by human greenhouse gas emissions. It also includes the economic and social changes caused by living in a warmer world.
  • Many physical effects of global warming are already apparent, such as extreme weather conditions, retreat from glaciers, rising sea levels, change in seasonal timing (such as early plant flowering),  or declines in the size of Arctic sea ice. The impact of global warming in the future depends on the extent of nation prevention efforts and greenhouse gas emissions reduction. The acidification of the oceans is not caused by global warming but by a single cause: rising carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
  • Ecosystems and humans have also been impacted by climate change. It makes food scarcity in many countries worse and places pressure on freshwater sources, in tandem with climate change variability. This in conjunction with extreme weather events results in adverse effects on human health.
  • Increased temperatures hinder sustainability as the economic growth of developed countries has been adversely affected. Climate change 's social effect would be more impacted by the efforts of society to brace and respond. In different parts of the wrold  global warming also leads to mass migration.
