Since the dawn of the Industrial Revolution, humans have increasingly been contributing unnatural sources of greenhouse gases into the system, causing the system to become unbalanced. Contents. The Greenhouse Effect Anthropogenic Causes of Global Warming Carbon Dioxide Human sources of carbon dioxide.

Major weaknesses have developed in the logic that carbon dioxide causes global warming. In a second article to follow, I will describe a new theory of climate change based on the influence of the sun. Arguments against Carbon Dioxide Driving Global Warming.

Figure 1 seems to provide compelling evidence that global warming is caused by an increase in carbon dioxide. The sudden steep rise in temperature following a long period of uniform temperature prior to the Industrial Age seems to be inextricably linked to man's activities since 1850 or so.

Enthusiastic teacher and student of global warming and climate change. Most cars run on petroleum, a fossil fuel. When fossil fuel is burnt it releases the carbon that has been stored in it from millions of years ago. This carbon dioxide adds to the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, contributing to global warming. A: Fossil fuels are fuels made of organic matter such as coal, or oil.

And the simultaneous record of temperature and carbon dioxide concentration in ice cores indicates that carbon dioxide concentration changes after temperature changes, not before, indicating that carbon dioxide is the result, not the cause, of global warming.

CO2, released by all fuel-burning vehicles, can remain in the air for centuries, causing a gentle warming effect. By contrast, most other gases and impacts – such as the vapour trails and tropospheric ozone produced by planes at altitude – cause much more potent but shorter-lived bursts of warming.

A new study suggests that planes cause more warming than cars, while ships are cooling enough to counteract them both. Air travel causes more warming than cars, while shipping counteracts them both. Photograph: David Levene for the Guardian.

Transportation—The Leading Cause of Global Warming. Summary: Road transportation is the greatest contributor to global warming for the next 50 years. U.S. policy makers must take steps to reduce emissions, promote green growth, and mitigate transportation’s harmful effects on the climate.

The surprisingly complex truth about planes and climate change. A new study suggests that planes cause more warming than cars, while ships are cooling enough to counteract them both. Duncan Clark. Thursday 9 September 2010 06.23 EDT First published on Thursday 9 September 2010 06.23 EDT.

Anthropogenic Causes of Global Warming. The most important greenhouse gases are carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide and water vapor. While all these gases occur naturally in the atmosphere, emissions from human sources has caused their levels to rise to a point that is no longer sustainable. Lets take a look at the major human causes of global warming.

why does driving cause global warming
Most cars run on petroleum and a fossil fuel, when fossil fuel is burnt it releases the carbon that adds to the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, contributing to global warming.
