What impact does global warming have on the natural environment and human society?

The heat energy brought by the rising temperature will provide great kinetic energy to the air and ocean, thus forming large-scale or even super-large-scale disasters such as typhoons, hurricanes and tsunamis. Rising temperature will not only absorb water directly from the ocean, but also from the land, resulting in a large area of drought in inland areas, thus reducing food production and feed production.

The melting icebergs with rising temperatures are the main source of fresh water for our survival. The rising temperature has gradually broken the natural food chain. The increase of carbon dioxide content in the atmosphere will lead to the increase of carbon dioxide content in the ocean, carbonation of the ocean and killing a large number of microorganisms. Rising ocean temperature will also destroy a large number of coral-centered biological chains.

The biggest victim: Tuvalu, a beautiful island country in the South Pacific, is probably the first country to "sink". The country's Meteorological Bureau estimates that the sea level will rise by 37.6 cm in 50 years, which means that at least 60% of Tuvalu's land will completely sink into the sea. This means extinction for Tuvalu, because there will be no land exposed to the sea at high tide.

Due to the rising temperature, the "Xanadu" Maldives in the Indian Ocean has only a few days to die. On June 5438+1October 65438+July 2009, the Maldivian Cabinet held the first "Underwater Cabinet Meeting" in the world, emphasizing the threat of global warming to the country.

Kiribati is the earliest place on earth to greet the sunrise, and it is also the only country in the world that spans the northern and southern hemispheres and the eastern and western hemispheres. However, with global warming and rising sea level, its disappearance is inevitable. 20 10 on April 30th, two islands in Kiribati were swallowed by seawater, and the highest place was only 6 feet above sea level.
