Seven Consequences of Global Warming

Consequences of global warming:

1. Climate warming, melting glaciers and rising sea levels have caused the loss of coastal beaches, wetlands, mangroves and coral reefs, coastal erosion, seawater intrusion into the coastal fresh groundwater layer, and salinization of coastal land, thus causing imbalance of natural ecological environment in coastal areas, estuaries and bays and bringing disasters to the coastal ecological environment system.

2. The water area has increased. Water evaporation is also more, the rainy season is prolonged, and floods are more frequent. The chances of being flooded increase, the degree and severity of being affected by heavy rain increase, and the life of reservoir dams is shortened.

The rising water temperature may melt the ice and snow in Antarctic Peninsula and Arctic Ocean. Polar bears and walruses will be extinct.

4. Many small islands will disappear without a trace; Will be infected with infectious diseases such as malaria ...

Due to thermal inertia, the existing greenhouse gases will continue to affect our lives. "

6. Rising temperature will affect people's fertility, and sperm activity will decrease with rising temperature.

7. The speed of satellites will also increase and the mountains will become higher.
