Natural Causes of Global Warming

Now that we are almost certain that humans played a huge role in Global Warming, we can at least say that not all of the damage was caused by humans. Although the major causes of Global Warming have all been attributed to our human actions, there are also some natural causes to Global Warming.



Scientists say that these naturally occurring events may play a role in Global Warming...

• Major volcanic eruptions
  
• Explosions on the sun (which are called 'sunspots')
• Explosions caused by large meteors hitting our planet
  
• Changes in Earth's orientation toward the sun
• Changes in Earth orbit
