Negative Effects of Global Warming on Society

The negative effects of global warming have now become a matter of concern for governments all around the world. It is predicted that rise in the planet's temperature will continue and get much worse in the future if stringent steps are not taken to stop it right from now.Global warming may have disastrous results in the future as the glaciers may melt down thereby making the levels of the oceans to rise. If this is not checked, then it would lead to floods and cities along the coasts will be the worst affected. Whole cities would get submerged under the seas in the next 30 years. Research by the climatic organizations suggests that the effects of this warming are irreversible.

This steady rise in overall temperature has also led to Arctic shrinkage as well as changes in the seasonal patterns.As a result, climatic changes are leading to irreversible effects at global and continental levels. And, the worst part is that these effects are increasing day by day. There have also been large reductions in the West Antarctic and the Greenland ice sheets.

Even the animals in these regions are becoming extinct as they are left with less space to live in. The emission of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is trapping poisonous gases which are not allowing the sun's heat to escape from the atmosphere. Hence, the average global temperature has also increased in the last few years. There have bee the economy of many countries very badly.n adverse changes in the rainfall as well.
