so many articles, books and blogs, so many hours spent on discussing climate change but it still seems that majority of people don't understand what it is. while it is indeed true that the climate is changing some people think that it is only happening this past century. few realize that climate change has been a regular phenomenon throughout the earth's history.
is the present climate change being observeda pure anthropogenic event? if not how big is our contribution to it?
other scholars are saying that this one is not really caused by humans but what we are experiencing is typical of the interglacial period that happens every so often. what if this is the case? are we ready to accept it?
some uninformed people even blame volcanic eruptions and earthquakes are caused by global warming. they don't realize that volcanic eruptions and earthquakes are caused by more powerful and complex forces acting on the planet. volcanoes change weather patterns not weather changing volcanoes behaviour.
