How increase in human population is considered to be the major cause of global warming through the greenhouse effect ?

Answer 1

An increase in the human population is considered to be the major cause of global warming through the greenhouse effect because :

1. An increase in exhaling gases of human beings i.e. carbon dioxide which is an important factor towards the greenhouse effect hence increases global warming.
2. Decrease in the supply of oxygen due to increased inhaling gases used by human beings i.e. oxygen.
3. Human beings will be more vulnerable to diseases as the increased temperature would substantially increase viruses which thrive better in warmer conditions.
4. There will be a shortage of food due to increased population and adversely affected crop production.
