how are we reversing the effects of global warming?

Reducing greenhouse gasses is the primary goal in reversing the effects of global warming\n\nThe introduction of hydrogen fuel cells into cars may help reduce green house gas emissions. much research is going into this.\n\nUtilisation of coal seam methane for energy as opposed to burning it is reducing emissions.\n\nusing nuclear, solar, wind, hydroelectric power sources as opposed to fossil fuels.\n\nResearch is also being undertaken to further understand the problem of global warming and possible solutions - the problem cannot be treated successfully if it is not understood.

Unfortunately,we are constantly ruining the balance in nature and that causes dramatical changes in climate.I observe the same as you..Maybe it's probable even to bring us a climatic shift.

Greenhouse gas emissions -> Leads to global warming.  Which destroys many parts of the the world's eco-systems already, it will eventually impact humans soon too.

We don't need to counter the greenhouse effect. Global warming is caused by the Sun, not by anything that we are doing. and we cannot prevent it. We need to make realistic plans to move our cities inland, not to waste time trying to prevent it.\n\nAttributing global warming to human causes is political hype, exploited by unscrupulous people who want to gain fame without having to do anything to earn it and influence without being responsible to anybody in their use of it.\n\n13 NOV 06, 0323 hrs, GMT.

Actually, I do believe that this is exactly what happened.  And I also believe that we are doing exactly the same thing to earth.\n\nThe arctic ice is melting, hurricanes are getting worse, the ozone layer around the earth has 3 confirmed holes---and as the weather goes for the last 2 or 3 years:  I would say that something is seriously out of balance.....and if you watch the discovery channel often enough then you probably have watched the reports on the rivers---how man has straightenend them out with their dams and that the Mississippi River will one day be as big as it used to be......meaning that you cannot see the other side of the river(big as a sea the old indians described it).  \n\nGlobal warming is a reality.  And the responsibility needs to go to those chemical factories that refuse to add enough cleaning devices to prevent that all those chemicals get into the air.  All over Europe will you find such obligations for all big factories---but the United States wants to save money....the only thing that can be done is if the entire world has one uniform rule and abides by that.  It makes little sense that a country like China can pollute all theu want to----the air is not stagnant, clouds travel, so all their dirt in the air can very well pollute the rest.\nIt also has been established that the axis of the globe has shifted slightly--so again, we are headed toward a huge disaster.  I am old, I am probably dead when it happens, but I do have children....they will have to live through it

I think it would help in your theory,due to more greenhouse gasses would be assimilated by more trees.\n\npart of the problem with global warming is that much of the planets eco systems are being destroyed without being replendished (south america tree harvesting)

it is the greenhouse effect that causes global warming.

For a start, get rid of all the politicians that are taking money from the special interests that are in favor of global warming: GM, Ford, Exxon, the utility companies, and the list goes on and on.\n\nSince that is not going to happen, I agree with the first responder. There is nothing we can do to stop it so if you live in a hurricane zone move out. If you live were there is not at least 40 inches of parcipitation a year move out. \n\nThere is one sign of hope. We may run out of oil sooner than everyone immagines. That would do a lot to stop global warming.

No.  If the planet were on a cooling trend, and stayed that way for a while, it might be heading towards a periodic Ice Age, as it has done in the past.  We would consume a lot more of outr limited energy resources just to keep ourselves warm.  Also, don't worry so much about Global Warming.  As I said before, nature goes through these cycles of warming and cooling.  Yes. humans have an impact, but it is small.

1.  Yes, temperatures actually have been rising - in certain places.  2.  No, it isn't too early to make predictions, as long as they are based on sound, unbiased scientific findings.  3. I believe that the warming is being driven by both people and natural causes.  We can do something about the former, but not the latter.  To what degree (no pun intended) each one is a factor is still up in the air, I think.  4.  Yes, it certainly could benefit some regions of the earth, but it would damage many populated regions tremendously.  That's why we need to try to slow down the human contribution a.s.a.p.

It is happening... look at all the data. However, I think that "greenhouse gases" are a little overplayed as the scape goat... we ARE coming out of an ice age, after all.

with the global warming increased\nmore green cars and powerstations will be inverted

Fossil fuels: Reduce your car-miles.  Carpool, take public transportation, walk, or ride a bike.  Support the use of clean-burning fuels, like compressed natural gas.\n\nRefuse: Recycle plastics, paper, and metals.  Anything which can be used in any fashion should go to a resale shop.  Try to only use Type 1 and Type 2 plastics, which are easily recyclable.\n\nDon't flush anything besides rain water down storm drains.  \n\nWhen swimming or boating or camping or spending time in the wild, gather your trash and pack it out with you.

Climate is affected by a number of sources such as where your location is to the equator, the earths rotation, etc. Long term changes are taking place very slowly due to human activities (gases, deforestation, soil erosion etc) and need to be addressed on a global level to prevent further changes. Increased gases in the atmosphere cause heating...and deforestation and decrease of plant life means that many of the carbons are not being used - so they continue to increase in the atmosphere causing changes. \nThere is no way to "stop" it, just slow it by us being more energy efficient, stop creating so much pollution...\nYou can somewhat effect microclimates - a local area that is changed because of large cities, large mountains etc - but not really hard to do intentionally - it's done over time as something builds up and disturbs the existing temp.\n\nWhew...that was a long one.

GLOBAL WARMING!!! this is a big issue. you could research a lot on that. or you could do the war in Iraq.

Science explains Global warming. More storms, bigger storms, carbin dioxide levels, soon crops may burn up before they grow, rain forest desease may spread, Gulf stream may stop, In Our Lifetime.\nIs a good read, go see... Times ARE changing.
