The ISCFC is all about reducing our individual and collective contributions to climate change.
But is climate change really happening? Is it mostly caused by human activity, including our production of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases?
In the United States and elsewhere, there are people who are not convinced by the science. But the great thing about science is that we use evidence to evaluate scientific questions. So what is the evidence related to climate change?
Are you or are you not convinced by the majority of climate scientists who say that climate change is real and largely human caused? Why are you convinced/not convinced? What evidence might change your mind one way or the other?
Is Climate Change Real & Human-Caused? >
Climate change is real and some of it can be caused by the human population.
BBC News has an article about Geoengineering could have a side effect. The impact of the large- scale injection of sulfur dioxide could affect the rainfall in the rainforests by 30% and how they are going to be affected. Researchers and scientists are trying to figure out ways to help control the sulfur dioxide. "But according to Prof Piers Forster, from the University of Leeds, the technologies are still in their infancy."http://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-25639343#
With higher levels of carbon dioxide, the more plants will grow, which initially lower the level of sulfur dioxide. Global Warming will result in the Earth's land vegetation becoming to have negative side affects. The plant cells will become stressed out with not getting enough water.
In the last 20 years, there has been a rise in carbon dioxide from 350ppm to 400ppm. It would take over 20 years to bring it back down, and 12 years for methane. All of the carbon we are the atmosphere releases ends up as carbon dioxide. which is what is factoring to the climate change.
We cause most of it! People deny it but its the truty
