However, these causes are not anything like the human causes. There are very few natural causes of global warming that come into play. Also, these contributors’ influences are too small and occur too slowly to even come close to explaining the rapid warming seen in recent decades (3). The sun is one natural contributor (4). The sun does produce heat to the Earth, but not even close to enough heat to affect us or the Earth in a very long time (4). Another contributor is volcanic eruptions (3). Eruptions emit a mixture of gasses into the air that in return have a cooling effect reflecting sunlight away from the Earth. These eruptions also contribute to the greenhouse effect by emitting carbon dioxide which causes global
