An environmental effect of global warming is the fact that higher temperatures
will lead to a change in the water cycle. Some places may experience more rain.
Warmer temperatures will cause a greater amount of evaporation from lakes,
rivers and oceans. In some areas this could be good and in others it could be
considered bad In Northern regions of the United States, an increase in the
temperature and amount of rain could actually extend the growing season of
crops. This would in turn mean more money for farmers in the northern region.
It could also hurt some farmers. Too much rain is bad for some crops. Certain

areas will actually get less rains, which would lead to more droughts and have
a negative impact on crops. Warm and wet weather is usually a factor that
promotes tropical storms. Global warming would lead to tropical storms,
appearing with great frequency. More rain will also force plant life to adjust.
Forests and plant life migrate naturally, but scientists say that global warming
would cause them to migrate at a much faster rate. The Environmental Media
Services Organisation has found that greenhouse effect could drive global
temperatures up as much as 6 degrees by the year 2100 - an increase in heat
comparable to the 10 degree warming that ended the last ice age. Global
warming will not just make sea levels rise, it will also affect northward or
southward because the waters are warmer. The warm water would make them
think that they were in their natural habitat, when they were actually migrating
toward the poles. Food would be scarce in their new habitat.
