Real cause of the Global Warming

                          Motto of The Israeli Association for the Global Warming Fight
The rising concentration of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere is not anthropogenic.
Global warming is caused mainly by increased solar radiation. The rise in CO2 in the air is caused principally by its release from warming oceans (Henry’s and Raoult’s laws) and not by human and industrial activities.
Thus these two global phenomena should be differentiated from one another:
1. Global warming, caused by solar radiation.
2. Global pollution, caused by humans as a result of daily activity in consumer-oriented life-styles in the modern world.
These two different phenomena are unconnected to each other and require different approaches to combat them. The struggle against global warming by reducing CO2 production can be likened to fighting a fire by suppressing only the smoke.
The burning of fossil fuels may cause environmental pollution when it is done in an uncontrolled manner, but it certainly does not cause global warming.
