Dispelling the Myths: The Truth About What's Causing the Greenhouse Effect

There are many myths afloat about global warming and it seems the resistance to addressing it stems from fear and ignorance – fear that we could lose our jobs or the oversight in thinking that this type of warm weather is cyclical and the cold weather will be back again. There are a lot of myths about global warming. Let's address a few global warming myths then get on with providing solutions to stem the trend:

• The only way to fight global warming is to close down industrial plants, taking jobs away from hardworking people. Wrong! With a dedicated plan existing plants to reduce environmentally poisonous emissions, global warming solutions don't have to affect the US economy or US workers. Ignoring the problem won't make it go away.
• Global warming isn't a bad thing - warmer temperatures could solve a lot of environmental concerns. The good is far outweighed by the bad because global warming effects contribute to extreme weather changes that cause floods and droughts.
• Global warming would happen no matter what; it's a natural part of the earth's life cycle. The buildup of CO2 is not occurring naturally - it's happening because people are burning too many fossil fuels and cutting down forests at an alarming rate.
• There's no real environmental concern - we have an unlimited supply of resources. Today we think of food and water as something that will always be available. But changing climates effect the entire ecosystem - since wildlife and plants rely upon water, reductions in water will greatly affect their ability to reproduce and grow.
• If you live in Buffalo, you might be thinking "what global warming effect? We freeze during winter!" While some areas still have cold winters, scientists agree that a few regional anomalies don't impact the far-reaching global warming problem. The global climate is influenced by weather events all over the world spanning hundreds or thousands of years.
• We can't get an accurate weather forecast - no one can predict global warming effects, either. Global Climate predictions are not as easy to predict as the weather. Global warming studies measure global climate changes, including long-range atmospheric changes. When scientists study global warming changes over time, they find that the atmosphere doesn't fluctuate like the day to day weather - it simply indicates a global warming trend.
