Many individuals are under the assumption that people are exclusively responsible for global warming. Many people are unaware, that unavoidable natural conditions also contribute to global warming. It can easily be argued that whatever global warming occurs naturally on the planet is a fraction of what humans are capable of contributing.
The human causes of global warming have been occurring for many years. People are responsible for global warming, through a number of activities, ranging from driving vehicles to breathing. Natural causes of global warming can be on a much larger scale that could be from sources outside of our planet. Global warming is an extremely dire issue, regardless of it's origin, and awareness of this fact is paramount.
Naturally Occurring Global Warming Catalysts
One natural cause of global warming involves the sun. Our planet is influenced by explosions that occur on the sun's surface over a period of time. The impact comes in the form of higher temperatures which directly affect global warming. Each time one of these explosions occurs, our planet is exposed to higher temperatures, and these explosions happen quite regularly.
There are specific times in the Earth and Sun's orbits, that they are nearer to each other. When this happens it is normal to see an increase in temperatures on the planet. This provides one excellent example of global warming caused naturally. Human beings, obviously, have nothing to do with this event, which naturally occurs in the universe.
Another natural cause is the volcanoes that cover parts of the planet. Some actively are erupting while many others sit dormant waiting for their next opportunity to unleash their fury. When these volcanoes do erupt they send numerous gases, ash, and smoke into the atmosphere of the planet. As this happens the temperatures will slowly decrease. Temperature drops are due to the smoke from the volcano, rising to a point that the sunlight is blocked out for a period of time. Once the effects of the volcano have subsided the planet will naturally warm itself back up.
Another natural cause of global warming, is alterations in the world's tides. It is thought that these changes in the current can be influenced by the sun. The amount of change in the tide, and where the change occurs, will determine how drastically temperatures will be affected, and how much global warming will result.
