Yes, it absolutely has, and it has a lot to do with how Humans are living today, and not caring about the consequences of what we are doing. We continue to polute the planet, even now knowing the damage that we are really doing. I think it may even be to late, if not close, to reverse what we have already done. The Planet is Clearly at the tipping point, and it is sad that more isnt being done. Everyone thinks that all the bad things that will happen as an affect, wont happen for Many years to come, and I am pretty sure they will be in for a shocking surprise. As we continue to live the way we do, we are just increasing the already alarming rate of the doom of Humanity.
I believe that over time the climate naturally swings back and forth--and the role that we humans play in it right now is a part of the big picture. Some but not all comes from us. We probably are escalating it though. I think the dark irony is that it is possible that the same stuff in the atmosphere that may have killed off the dinosaurs is the same stuff that we are burning up and putting into our air. Anyhow, the important thing to realize is that we can all make little changes in our life that will have a big impact on the environment--and you don't have to be an environmental extremist to see the value in that.
I definitely think climate change has affected the number of hurricanes, tsunamis, etc. but i'm not convinced that humans are the main cause of this.
yes i am agree that the climate change invites the natural disasters. Humans are very much responsible for that. our contribution to save our planet is not satisfactory. but i am not agree with the predictions that human community will disappear from the planet. Humans are the best community on this planet. They reach this age by passing through many difficult tests. They have a secret power to survive (evolution) to change themselves according to the changes in nature.Only a sudden change in climate will decrease their population otherwise not any power will remove the life from the planet
climate change can have to do with the increase of natural disasters, but so can the way humans are living. many people have differnt views on religion.. well mine is that God has a hand in how the wold is turning and what goes on. in the bible this was predicted. but we cant just blame humans for what is happening in the world today. everything put together can have reactions. just like when you mix chemicals together they have a reaction. just think of God, humans, weather, and all the other stuff as chemicals and with that you're going to get quite a strange reaction. i do believe we can do some things to help improve our planet though and if we all work together by doing just the little things our world will be a better place!!! but we will never be able to get rid of all the bad factor.. or chemicals..haha.. that contribute to making our world not a perfect place!!
