      It think it will still have an effect, yes. I’m not an expert, but I understand that even if we try our best to do something about it sooner rather than later, and we stopped producing greenhouse gases instantly, right now, the earth would still go on warming for quite a few years afterwards.

      Well, if the termperature of the planet continues to increasing, it will definitely have huge effects on future generations (melting glaciers causing flooding, increased temperatures affecting crops, etc).

      Becca,

      Maybe but there is still alot to be confirmed and discovered about this. There is still a big debate. In any case I think we should protect and love our environment as much as possible.

      That depends on how we deal with it now…probably is my answer to that!

      I would think so for a long time to come as many of the changes that have occured have very long lasting results…land underwater that used to be farm land, weather systems changed for ever, icecaps won’t refreeze anytime soon.

      that said i hope that we will adapt to changes so the future world may not be exactly the same as ours is now..it will still be livable
