try to walk and bike to places more

I ride my bike a lot and even try to walk to most places and I really only take a car to go to polo and football

Wow I use less Co2 than the avger person.

LUCKY! I wish I could say the same thing...:)

I know that everyone likes ice cream, milk, Mac n' Cheese, and just cheese in general--- but have you ever thought about how it affects the climate? Cows--- the source of all our dairy--- release methane, a global-warming inducing chemical, through their digestive system.(As in, when they b*rp or far*...) Personally, I am the only dairy eater in a lactose-intolerant family, but I still feel that we could cut back on the dairy so that farms don't breed cows so much, and so (Hopefully) the amount of methane going into the atmosphere will reduce. (Lactose-free ice cream is good, people!) This is just a thought, but personally, I will try to cut back on the dairy. A pebble in the ocean still creates a ripple! Thanks for hearing me out, and if anyone has any other ideas that don't involve giving up cheese for the sake of the world and reducing methane, I'm all ears!

Plane rides are one of the most carbon-emitting ways of transportation. From my personal carbon footprint, my transportation section was up around 6,000 kgs more than normal because I took many plane rides around the world. According to billiontrees.com, a plane emits around 90 kg of C02 per hour. To put that into perspective a normal car emits around 1 kg of C02 per hour. Planes emit way more carbon because they burn a lot more fossil fuels than any other type of transportation. A plane like a Boeing 747 uses approximately 1 gallon (about 4 liters) of fuel every second. Although it is hard to avoid plane rides, the next time you are on a plane think about how much carbon the plane is emitting into the

Yes!! I recently calculated my carbon footprint and was shocked to see how much a couple airplane rides a year shot it up more than 5,000 kgs. Over 16 million flights per year are handled by the FAA which is a huge amount of carbon emissions. As you said plane rides are essential for our worldwide travel, but we do need to consider how much carbon we are emitting every time we fly, even short distance flights.

I completely agree that air travel is one of the largest contributors to carbon emissions. Your personal experience highlights just how significant the impact can be. The comparison between planes and cars really puts it into perspective—it's startling to realize how much more CO2 planes emit. Given that many of us rely on flying for both work and leisure, it’s crucial to be aware of the environmental cost. While it may not always be feasible to avoid plane travel, being mindful of our choices can help us mitigate our carbon footprints. Perhaps considering alternatives like trains or limiting long-distance trips could make a difference.

Climate Change was hypothesized in 1896 by Swedish scientist Svante Arrhenius, many years later in 1938, this theory was confirmed by the scientist Guy Calendar. Humans have known about climate change for almost a century and a loud minority still don't believe in it.

So to answer the threads question, yes, Climate Change is real and cause by Humans.

Schimbările climatice reprezintă modificări semnificative ale climei Pământului într-o perioadă lungă de timp. Există o mare consens în comunitatea științifică că schimbările climatice sunt reale și sunt cauzate în principal de activitățile umane. Emisiile de gaze cu efect de seră, cum ar fi dioxidul de carbon, provenite din arderea combustibililor fosili, precum cărbunele, petrolul și gazele naturale, contribuie la creșterea temperaturilor globale. Defrișarea masivă a pădurilor este, de asemenea, un factor important. Aceste schimbări climatice pot avea consecințe grave asupra mediului și societății, inclusiv creșterea nivelului mărilor, fenomene meteorologice extreme și pierderea biodiversității. Este important să conștientizăm aceste probleme și să luăm măsuri pentru a reduce emisiile de gaze cu efect de seră și a proteja planeta noastră.

Climate change is real and humans are the cause. Things that we use everyday like vehicles emit carbon into the air which is a green house gas. Greenhouse gasses trap some heat in the earth's atmosphere and too many greenhouse gasses make the planet overheat leading to climate change. In my research, carbon has been more prominent in areas with machines, and less prominent in areas with trees because trees take in carbon and produce oxygen. If we start relying less on machines, we can reduce our carbon output and help prevent climate change.

Climate change happens naturally in multiple ways, like the release of Methane from cows, but we humans excel the rate for global temperature rise by multitudes. We use machinery and factories that release hundreds of tons of CO2 and other green house gasses. The gasses are great at trapping temperature because they're magnetically of balance with their charges. When heat hits them the jiggle and trap the energy in heat form. Ultimately this causes the globe to rise in temperature slowly. To conclude, yes  climate change is real, and when it comes to thee question of if we're to blame, majority answer is yes.

global warming is something that we caused by not caring about the environment or planet earth itself

Yes, global warming is human-caused and has contributed to climate change. A main factor is greenhouse gas emissions being emitted into the atmosphere and trapping the sun's heat, resulting in the greenhouse effect keeping heat near the earth's surface. A prime example is human's excessive usage of plastic and nonbiodegradable trash that when burned releases carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrogen into the atmosphere. Gas waste containing nitrogen accounts for water pollution and acidic rains. According to the United Nations Climate Action, today the earth's temperature regulations are warming at a faster rate than ever seen before in history with increased temperatures altering weather patterns across various regions and disrupting the balance of ecosystems. Other defining factors that lead to climate change include burning fossil fuels such as oil, coal, and gas has amounted to over 75% of global greenhouse gas emissions and nearly 90% of all carbon dioxide emissions. Cutting down forests also prompts climate change because trees both absorb and store large amounts of carbon dioxide. Deforestation is the cause for about 10% of climate change because when trees are chopped down the stored carbon is released back into the atmosphere. I think that climate change is very real and is a result of humans disrupting the earth's natural balance of carbon emissions into the atmosphere. Though climate change is irreversible, I think its rate can be slowed and we can reduce the amount of human-caused emissions of carbon. Instead as a society, we can look to use renewable and sustainable practices to cut back on waste and pollution.

Climate change is definitely real and human caused. In the short time humans have been around compared to the existence of earth, humans have managed to alter the atmosphere and impose irreversible damage to our climate. There are huge trash piles floating in the ocean, dumps of trash not able to be composted or recycled, and most importantly, the things that sustain life on earth are wasting away. Land ice is melting causing sea levels to rise, as well as the pollution that has been emitted into the atmosphere, contributing to the build up of greenhouse gasses that are heating up our planet to unhealthy levels.

People who say that climate change isn't real state that we are not in an ice age at the moment. I would disagree with that statement since there is ice on our poles which constitutes an ice age. We are actually in an interglacial period were the ice pulls back to around the poles. That means it is concerning to have our planet's ice sheets melt as we are still technically in an ice age.

Climate change was started by the industrial revolution and affects our world more and more everyday. It was started by human activities that would release greenhouse gasses and large amounts of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. Some of these activities include burning fossil fuels, farming livestock, and cutting down trees. While I understand that by doing these, it makes our lives easier, it is also very harmful to our planet. We can have more food options and produce more heat. Not to include that by cutting down trees we are able to make paper, make it easier to build, farm, use wood for fuel, etc. The average temperature on the earth is increasing which may be great because it feels like summer instead of being cold out. But that is not the case. By doing all of these things, we are doing more harm to the environment than good. Glaciers are melting and animals are losing their habitats and are going extinct. There are also more droughts which is bad for everyone because we need water to survive. The ocean is getting warmer and rising which will cause more hurricanes and severe storms. This is harming marine life and making it unsafe for those who live near large bodies of water. There are also more health risks, not enough food, and poverty. These are all horrible things that are happening to our planet because of climate change. You may be asking yourself, how can this be stopped? There’s many different ways that our planet can be saved. We could stop using fossil fuels, invest in renewable energy, stop cutting down forests and trees, etc.
