Less fresh water will be available.
Species that depend on one another may become out of sync. For example, plants could bloom earlier than their pollinating insects become active.
Natural calamities and disaster would occur at lesser frequencies and with more destructive power. Hurricanes and other storms are likely to become stronger.
Severe heat waves would lead to death of millions of people all around the world.
While the idea of swimming in a warmer ocean is pleasant to most human beings, increasing ocean temperatures could cause serious ecological damage. It's nearly impossible to overstate the threat of climate change. Greenhouse gas emissions are rising more rapidly than predicted and consequently the world is warming more quickly. Global warming will have catastrophic effects such as accelerating sea level rise, droughts, floods, storms and heat waves. These will impact some of the world's poorest and most vulnerable people, disrupting food production, and threatening vitally important species, habitats and ecosystems. Global Warming is an increase in the earth's atmospheric temperatures widely due to an increase in the greenhouse effect resulting especially from pollution. Global warming is melting of ice from poles because of the increase in the extent of carbon dioxide. If due to global warming all the ice from our poles melt into water, the water level on earth increases and submerge the land. Another major cause of global warming is deforestation.

    As the earth warms the water expands and gets higher. This can cause a safety hazard for humans, plants and animals. Can also create powerful storms on low-lying areas. The warmer the surface of the water it will make it easier for small ocean storms to enlarge and become more dangerous than what they already are. These storms also make it dangerous for marine ecosystems and gives sensitive habitats less time to recover.…

    Global warming is the increase of average world temperatures as a result of what is known as the greenhouse effect. Global warming started long before the 'Industrial Revolution'. It began 18,000 years ago as the earth started warming its way out of the Pleistocene Ice Age. On average the earth's temperature rises 2c to 6c by the end of the 21 century.There are 20 deadly effects because of gobal warming.First,dieases carring insects are spreading north,so in why malria isn't fully extinguish. Second, the waters are getting warmer so there is going to be more hurricanes.Third, There is going to be more chances of heat waves and droughts.Fourth, there's going to be Economic consequences. For example, if there is a big hurricane, the hurricane damages are going to cost money, so if there is chance of more hurricanes, then there is going to be more damages that cost money. Fifth, the polar ice caps are melting, in which the sea levels are rising, and the polar ice caps are white so in which reclect the sunlight back into to space and cooling the earth.Sixth, there is going to be more floods, which is one of the most dangererous harzards to human settlements.Seventh, There is and are going to be more forest fires. n 2007, more than 3,000 fires brought destruction to Southeastern Europe thanks to a long summer that created arid and parched conditions – a situation that would become normal as a consequence of the greenhouse effect.Eighth, there is going to be more destructive storms. The force of an hurricane has increased 50% in the last 30 years.Nineth, there is going to be more death because of smog.smog-related deaths predicted to rise by “about 4.5 percent from the 1990s to the 2050s,”…

    Global warming is a progressive increase in the temperature of the earth's atmos-phere which customarily applies to the greenhouse effect, (the trapping of the sun's warmth in a planet's lower atmosphere), caused by increased levels of carbon dioxide and other pol-lutants. With the increasing temperature of the Earth (due to the sun expanding in size), ‘global warming is expected to occur in the future, glaciers will continue to melt and sea levels rise’ quoted by environmentalist, Tim Flannery.…

    One of the biggest concerns on an international scale is the rising sea levels, due to rising temperatures in the Antarctic and Greenland is causing rapid melting of ice caps and glaciers, this increase in water is causing a massive rise in sea levels, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has predicted an average rise in global sea level of 1.2m by the end of the century, that would be caused by the annual loss of 273thousand million tonnes of ice. If the entire sheet was to melt then the rise in sea level would be about 7m globally. This would lead to mass land loss of many countries incl. The UK, Bangladesh and Holland. The loss of land would have a massive impact on the agricultural sector with many acres of farm land lost to flooding and salinisation of the soil causing the land to be useless. Another international consequence is the relocation of millions of people worldwide, as many people live on flood plains.…

    The rise in temperature due to global warming can cause damage to society and disrupt the way of life for many species of animals. Having higher temps will increase health issues around the world. Increase in heat can lead to an elevated number of strokes to those who already carry health problems. People who suffer from asthma, heat strokes and even dehydration could all be affected by the higher temperatures (Denchak). In summary we need to be prepared for the rapidly rising temps because society could face major health problems. People who suffer from allergies could be in jeopardy, while people who have difficulties breathing are at risk too. Higher temps increase the amount of pollen in the air leading to worsening allergies (Denchak).…

    Shifting of temperatures to the extreme would force people to migrate to other conducive places until the conditions are right. Such high temperatures will lead to the change of the dress code leading to the people exposing much of their bodies of which does not match with our culture trends. I would not choose to continue living in such an environment with such extreme temperatures since they will interfere with my health negatively. Such high temperatures might as well make it difficult to access food and other necessities for us living in…

    First, devastating, and deadly natural disaster is a hurricane. In order for a hurricane to form it has to begin in a warm atmosphere. The seas are normally at their warmest from June to November. A hurricane requires sea- surface temperatures of at least 26 degrees Celsius (80 degrees Fahrenheit). This provides energy for the hurricane and causes more evaporation making humid air and clouds. The winds coming together force air upwards and winds flow outwards above the storm, allowing the air below to rise. Now this is what makes the storm and the light winds outside the hurricane steers it and this is how it grows into a formation of a hurricane. All hurricanes are dangerous and can cause numerous amounts of damage but the most dangerous parts of hurricanes are storm surges which also cause huge amounts of damages because of flooding. The flooding is caused by winds pushing ocean water toward sand. It is estimated that ten-thousand people die each year because of hurricanes. Many of human’s deaths are caused mainly by the flooding that occurs during a hurricane. For example, during hurricane Katrina in two-thousand and five it was devastating because much of the city of New Orleans flooded. Some eighteen-hundred people lost their lives because of hurricane Katrina and more than twenty-five hundred injuries occurred as well. No one wants to be caught in a hurricane because nowhere in a hurricane are you safe. This is why it is important to look for hurricane warnings and to evacuate if it…

    Global warming is result of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. These gases trap radiation from sun and hold them from being released back into space. This causes rise in temperature at few places on earth. It is not much noticeable in western part of earth but in eastern parts like North Pole, Alaska and others slight increase in temperatures makes a huge difference. Scientists believe that if current situation continues many kinds of changes will take place which can be either beneficial or harmful for the living beings.…

    Moreover, water can disappear into vapor, making it easier for the smaller storms to intensify into larger ones. This will cause major damage to land, houses, buildings, and more. Furthermore, all kinds of ocean life can get hurt, for example, reefs or kelp forests. With storms continuing to rise, multiply, and damaging the ocean, it gives less time for the more sensitive ocean life to recover from the horrible affliction that is occurring. In other words, having the ocean temperature rise, stronger forces of natural disasters will occur and affect many ocean…

    Many scientists believe that Global warming will have a massive effect on the climate and weather on our planet. This could happen one of two ways. The first is that an increase in temperature will cause polar ice caps to melt. If the Earth 's major ice caps were to melt, sea level would be raised anywhere from 7-14 meters (Ramanathan, 4). This would result in severe flooding. For example, the entire bottom section of Florida would disappear completely. A second way Global Warming could turn is that a temperature increase will cause evaporation and clouding, which would lower the earth 's temperature and eventually result in an ice age(Ramanathan, 5). If either of these scenarios were to occur, the repercussions would be tragic to the entire planet and everything living on it.…
