Global Warming : How Will Mankind Physicaly Evolve To Cope With Global Warming
The planet is getting warmer so surely there will be physical changes to the human race as we naturally evolve to cope with this? What are these changes likely to be though? ~~~ Shirt-n-Tie-Boy ~~~
Best Answer To Global Warming Question
The human race stopped physically evolving when we lessened the effect of natural selection with modern medicine... that's not to say that random mutations don't occur on occasion... but they don't give the person a benefit for breading and survival anymore. Our social values still evolve though... and those are what will evolve if there are large scale changes due to GW. Plus.. we are arguably already the most adaptive species on the planet.. that evolutionary gift is already enough
All Answers To Global Warming Questions
Answer 1No changes would be need because the temperature will not change enough for people to even notice. Scientists are talking about 1 or 2 (or maybe 5) degrees warmer, not 50 or 100 degrees warmer.
Answer 2Well u do need thick skin to live in society these days, talk about the urban jungle?
Answer 3Global warming is a fast change throughout the Earth. It has been going on since the Earths ecosystems became established. We have Years which have 4 seasons, as well as Galactic years which have influences on our climate. Humans wont evolve because of the changes, because evolution is a long, long process and the changes attributed to Global Warming are not with us long enough.
Answer 4gills and pointy teeth
Answer 5we will start to look more and more like lizards with a leathery skin to handle the heat, ,and develop gills ,and our apendixes will start working again so we can eat polluted seaweed this means that our bellies will get bigger Mine has already started
Answer 6We'll proberly see a slight tendency towards taller, skinnier body types, as they give of more heat. There is actually a difference in body types, depending on where people live in the world, in accordance with this already. The key is creating more surface area to be able to vent of more heat.
Answer 7Humans haven't changed significantly in the last 10,000 years due to evolution. The time frame of Global Warming is much shorter than 10,000 years. Whatever happens, we'll be dealing with it the way we are now.
Answer 8Humans are pretty adaptable physically, already living everywhere on the planet before the advent of civilization. It is hard to see what physical changes would be required to deal with anthropogenic climate change. Given that, humans will adapt and evolve in ways that will increase survivability although these might not be external physical changes. A good example of this would be how sickle-cell anemia evolved to cope with malaria mortality. So perhaps some emergent disease will devastate human populations. The survivors might develop an immune response that would provide some protection from the disease, but might not be so pleasant in its absence.

Answer 10We will not. Global warming is Bullshit , we have steadily been coming out of a ice age for the last thousand years .We were tropical in the beginning and are just reverting back to where we started from. Don't fall for the Hipe its just another way of goverments taxing you mention the ice caps , under all that it has been proved the it was a green before the first ice age and every thing was water!
Answer 11Perhaps he will turn green and start photosynthesizing CO2.
Answer 12We won't really evolve much just because of global warming, which will likely happen too quickly for evolution to take hold. Noticeable evolution takes place over the course of hundreds of thousands or millions of years. Water levels will rise and we will all just have to start swimming a lot more.
Answer 13Who Say's he will ???
Answer 14We won't evolve, their won't be enough time. Between the massive famines that will come and the large displacement of people from rising sea levels, and stronger deadlier storms. It looks like it will be more of mother nature cleaning house and getting rid of the pests.
Answer 15Future Democrats will grow wool for skin and walk around saying "baaaaa" all day long. They'll also evolve to the point where they'll have a fish hook in their mouths so it will be easier for them to fall for everything "hook, line and ;
Answer 16We will all grow cooling fins on top of our heads where the blood will circulate until it cools sufficiently to be returned to the heart, I think several people have already morphed into such a creature (. "Coolios") oh yes, and will have to give up wearing clothing.
Answer 17By leaving it alone. Remember the great "Global Cooling" campaign in the 1950's and 1960's? Yeah, I thought as much.
Answer 18Evolution is a slow process, mankind is still adapting from moving out of the caves and using fire! Global warming is happening so fast that all we can really do is make sure our offspring can swim! Do you want your kids to have gills?
Answer 19Our type of human has existed through many climate changes without any special adaptation. We were the same during the Ice Age as we are now. We were the same during the much warmer period, 7,500 years long, after the Ice Age. There will be no adaptation needed for the perhaps 5 degree rise in AVERAGE temperatures worldwide. A sea level rise of 15-25 feet will take time and everyone can walk or take a boat to higher ground, just as our ancestors did at the end of the last Ice Age. No one will drown or have to swim.

Answer 20Any temperature change we experience will never be a threat to us physically. We're talking fractions of or 1 -2 degrees, nothing we couldn't handle. As far as evolving goes, it will never be natural again, we will soon be in control of that.
Answer 21physical oo i just love physical questions we will become like lizards with dry hard skin and clucking gizzards with big round popping eyes to better see the flies and if it gets more wetter we may grow some flippers But i like the soft skin better i get warm just thinking about it
Answer 22move to living in underground caves
