Abstract :
The contribution by scientists such as John Tyndall, Svante Arrhenius and Milutin Milankovitch in stimulating the understanding of atmospheric sciences can not be denied as they have led to the current efforts to reduce the impact of greenhouse gases on global warming. However, the failure of carbon reduction programmes have led to confusion in the management of global climate adaptation. They are some experts who do not believe in the idea of CO2 as a pollutant, and rather regard it as important for the life of vegetation. Confusion also arises among experts who question the IPCC research results especially with regard to climate sensitivity, its modeling and how all this could be associated with environmental disasters. This study brought to light some of the confusion existing in understanding global warming and its relation to environmental disasters. It proved that there were high-impact scientific researches that successfully did provide fundamental understanding of the truth of the matter but that their findings were not normally given the spotlight as they did not coincide with mainstream research understanding.
