We humans are changing the composition of the atmosphere in many ways. those changes will directly affect the planet's temperature, but the resulting change in temperature will affect other things on the planet that also affect the planet's temperature. suppose that we could magically change the composition of the atmosphere enough to raise the temperature one degree if all other parts of the earth system were held fixed, and after the warming, we allowed the other parts of the earth system to react for a few years or decades. at the end of that time, what would be the total change in the earth's temperature?

    The Earth would end up cooler than before the human influence, as feedback processesoppose the tiny warming caused by the change in atmospheric composition. B. The Earth would end up a few tens of degrees warmer than before the human influence, because positive feedbacks would amplify the original changes a whole lot. C. The Earth would end up one degree warmer than before the human influence, becausepositive and negative feedback processes would offset each other. D. The Earth would end up a few degrees warmer than before the human influence, becausepositive feedbacks would amplify the original change. E. The Earth would end up warmer than before the human influence but by less than one degree, because feedback processes would oppose the initial warming
