What are the consequences of global warming if
nothing is done about it now?

• Global warming can affect the world around us.
  Sometimes it can have its pros and cons.
• It can cause health problems and ecological
  problems.
• The sea levels may also rise due to ice burgs
  melting.
• There can be complications in crops and food
  supply.

Health Problems

• Global warming can cause heat related health
  problems.
• People can suffer from heat stress or heat
  stroke.
• When industries let out harmful gases into the
  atmosphere, it causes a slight increase in
  temperature.

4
Ecological Disturbances

• Global warming can affect the habitats of many
  different animals.
• It can affect the plant life that the Earth
  supports.
• Rapid global warming can upset the natural
  balance of a certain climate.

5
Rising Sea Levels

• Warmer weather can make glaciers melt.
• Some melting glaciers add more water to the
  ocean.
• When too many glaciers melt, it can cause an
  increased amount of flooding.
• Warmer temperatures can also cause water to
  expand.

6
Complications in Crops and Food Supply

• Global warming can cause drought in some areas.
• It can also cause plants to grow in new areas.
• In some parts of the world, people may not have
  enough to eat because they cannot grow the food
  that they need.

What Are We Going To Do??

• If Global warming continues to happen, the world
  as we know it will soon end!! Just kidding. But
  it will not be in a healthy state.
• Global warming generally makes life harder for
  people. But if we stop it, we can grow up without
  dealing with it.
