Don't let it be too late...

5 deadliest global warming effects:

5. Spread of disease As the temperature increases, more disease carrying insects are drawn to the areas.

4. Warmer waters and more hurricanes As the temperature of oceans rises, so will the probability of more frequent and stronger hurricanes.

3. Increased probability and intensity of droughts and heat waves Global warming brings out the extremes of the climate so if it’s usually hot, it will be over the top.

2. Economic consequences All the damages from the other reasons increase the need for the government to spend money.


1. Polar icecaps melting The ice caps melting is a four-pronged danger.

First, it will raise sea levels.

Second, melting ice caps will throw the global ecosystem out of balance. The ice caps are fresh water, and when they melt they will desalinate the ocean. The desalinization of the gulf current will mess up ocean currents, which regulate temperatures.

Third, temperature rises and changing landscapes in the arctic circle will endanger several species of animals. Only the most adaptable will survive.

Fourth, global warming could snowball with the ice caps gone. Ice caps are white, and reflect sunlight, much of which is reflected back into space, further cooling Earth. If the ice caps melt, the only reflector is the ocean. Darker colors absorb sunlight, further warming the Earth.
