EFFECT OF CLIMATE CHANGE

Because the global climate is a connected system climate change impact are felt everywhere.

Among the most important climate change impacts are:

·      Rising sea levels

Climate change impacts rising sea levels. Average sea level around the world rose about 8 inches (20 cm) in the past 100 years; climate scientists expect it to rise more and more rapidly in the next 100 years as part of climate change impacts.

·      Melting ice

Projections suggest climate change impacts within the next 100 years, if not sooner, the world’s glaciers will have disappeared, as will the Polar ice cap, and the huge Antarctic ice shelf, Greenland may be green again, and snow will have become a rare phenomenon at what are now the world’s most popular ski resorts.

·      Warming oceans

It can directly harm to the animals, destroy the places they live, and wreak havoc on people’s livelihoods and communities.
