Global Warming is a load of rubbish. The Earth has been warming up ever since the last Ice Age. It's natural.
Dude, the Earth is supposed to be
cooling down.
Haven't you noticed the fact that the Earth is the only rocky planet in our Solar system that has life?
And why do you think that is, in terms of heat?
Well let's see...the Earth is the largest of the rocky planets in our Solar system, meaning that it has a smaller surface area in proportion to volume than the other rocky planets. Therefore it is the only one which still has internal heat left since a smaller surface area implies a slower rate of heat-loss. This heat came from the original collisions of its formation and the radioactive heavy elements are a small but significant part of its composition since they help to maintain the internal heat of the Earth. However, although we are supposed to be radiating heat naturally out into space like the other rocky planets, it is being trapped within the atmosphere of the Earth. So we are getting the heat from the Sun trapped in our atmosphere
and we are maintaining internal heat.
This is most certainly not natural.
Have you noticed what has happened to Venus?
Although Venus is nearly the same size as the Earth (about 80%) and its core is frozen, it's mean surface temperature is 464 degrees Celcius, which is even hotter than the surface of airless Mercury. It is veiled in a thick, all-enveloping atmosphere of carbon dioxide and sulphur dioxide. This is why the volcanic activity on Venus is so vicious, even though it doesn't have any tectonic plates which, as I remind myself, is probably one of the reasons why it got that atmosphere in the first place.
But what about Earth?
Earth has tectonic plates, which of course cause earthquakes, volcanic activity and mountain ranges. As the largest terrestrial planet in our Solar system, it has a hot interior and an awful lot of energy to drive the tectonic plates. The hotter the Earth is, the more volcanic activity and earthquakes there are. Tectonic plates and global warming - NOT a good combination, as you can imagine. The way we are going, our atmosphere is gradually getting like that of Venus.
However...
I think (and this is just me thinking now) that nuclear scientists should be trying to form nuclear fission reactions where the fission fragments are oxygen. If we could just get some more oxygen into the air I think that would help a lot. So I do think it's
possible to prevent global warming, but I don't think our current technology is quite good enough to do such things yet.
But no. Instead of concentrating on that, the government is more worried about finding a place to bury the
exceedingly radioactive (and I cannot
possibly express just how radioactive these are) fission fragments formed from uranium as a result of nuclear power.
