Question

write and explain any five effect of global warming​

Answer 1

Answer:

A global average temperature rise of 2 degrees Celsius or less in coming years. ...

The rising of the sea levels throughout the world.

Widespread decreases in the extent of snow and ice.

Warming of the Earth at high northern latitudes

Answer 2

Explanation:

• Hotter days:

2015 was the hottest year on record, the previous record was broken in 2014, and 2016 is expected to set a new record for the third year in a row. In the past few years records have being broken for longest heatwaves and the Bureau of Meteorology has added purple and magenta to the forecast map for temperatures up to 54°C.

• Rising sea levels:

Increased ocean temperatures are melting glaciers and ice caps all over the world. Melted ice increases the volume of water in our oceans. Warmer temperatures also result in the expansion of the water's mass, which causes sea levels to rise, threatening low-lying islands and coastal cities.

• More frequent and intense extreme weather events:

Extreme weather events like bushfires, cyclones, droughts and floods are becoming more frequent and more intense as a result of global warming.

• Oceans are warming and acidifying:

The oceans have absorbed most of extra heat and carbon dioxide (CO2) so far – more than the air – making the seas both warmer and more acidic. Warming waters are bleaching coral reefs and driving stronger storms. Rising ocean acidity threatens shellfish, including the tiny crustaceans without which marine food chains would collapse.

• Ecosystems:

Global warming stresses ecosystems through temperature rises, water shortages, increased fire threats, drought, weed and pest invasions, intense storm damage and salt invasion, just to name a few. Some of Australia’s great natural icons, such as the Great Barrier Reef, are already threatened
