What are the disasters caused by climate warming?

Disasters caused by climate warming include:

1. Global warming will lead to slow marine disasters. Global warming will cause seawater expansion, ocean warming, sea level rise and glacier melting. When the global temperature rises 1℃~2℃, the probability of extreme high temperature weather will also increase.

2. Global warming will affect agricultural output. Climate warming will easily lead to natural disasters such as floods and droughts, which will increase the instability of agricultural output.

3. Global warming will increase the calm weather in the North China Plain, and serious smog events will occur frequently in winter. The increase of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere will make the land temperature rise faster in winter, and the temperature gradient between land and sea will also decrease, resulting in the lack of northwest wind in North China Plain. In addition, there is little rainfall and snowfall in winter in North China Plain, which will not disperse the accumulated smog, thus increasing the frequency and duration of severe smog events in winter.

4. Global warming will change the ecosystem of species interaction and affect species diversity. Climate change not only affects the diversity of intestinal flora of lizards, but also affects their life span. Lizards affected by climate change live shorter lives than lizards not affected by climate change.

Slow down the warming:

Scientists put forward an idea to build an artificial space ring around the earth, consisting of small particles or spaceships, to shield tropical sunlight and regulate the temperature of the earth. Some opponents believe that this idea will inevitably have some side effects, and a particle belt that can effectively scatter sunlight will make every night sky as bright as a full moon.

In addition, the budget will be staggering, possibly reaching 6 trillion to 200 trillion dollars, which even NASA, the most well-funded scientific research institution in the world, can't afford. If the scattered particles are replaced by spacecraft, the budget may be less, and it is estimated that it can be reduced to about 500 billion US dollars.
