What are the Potential Consequences of Global Warming?

Arctic animals will begin to suffer and struggle to find usable habitat as the ice caps melt

Some people have a hard time contemplating the realistic consequences of global warming. It is not often understood of the enormously detrimental results that could emerge due to the earth's global climate change.

As the polar ice caps melt, the sea level rises and the water expands as the temperature rises. Some animals are dependent on their arctic habitats and will struggle to thrive. As the sea level rises, flooding risks and water pollution increase. Devastating heat waves can cause serious health issues, even death.
As the temperature of the ocean rises, the probability and frequency of violent hurricanes also rises.
