What are the dangers of global climate change?

Posted at: 2015-03-12 
Global climate change has already had observable effects on the environment. Glaciers have shrunk, ice on rivers and lakes is breaking up earlier, plant and animal ranges have shifted and trees are flowering sooner.

Effects that scientists had predicted in the past would result from global climate change are now occuring: loss of sea ice, accelerated sea level rise and longer, more intense heat waves.

Scientists have high confidence that global temperatures will continue to rise for decades to come, largely due to greenhouse gasses produced by human activities. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), which includes more than 1,300 scientists from the United States and other countries, forecasts a temperature rise of 2.5 to 10 degrees Fahrenheit over the next century.

According to the IPCC, the extent of climate change effects on individual regions will vary over time and with the ability of different societal and environmental systems to mitigate or adapt to change.

The IPCC predicts that increases in global mean temperature of less than 1.8 to 5.4 degrees Fahrenheit (1 to 3 degrees Celsius) above 1990 levels will produce beneficial impacts in some regions and harmful ones in others. Net annual costs will increase over time as global temperatures increase.

"Taken as a whole," the IPCC states, "the range of published evidence indicates that the net damage costs of climate change are likely to be significant and to increase over time."

Only danger of climate change is global cooling causes mass extinctions, less habitable lands, drier climates, shorter growing seasons, diminished agricultural production. Global warming has the exact opposite effects. These effects are not ideological. They are based on actual recorded history and scientific analysis of collected geological and ice core samples.

Not going to explain in detail the other stuff. I feel like I'd be doing your homework assignment for you.

Well...heat waves, drought, floods, desertification, blizzards, increase in storm activity We are not here to do your school work for you so YOU will have to do some research so you can develop a thesis Maybe your first search could be atmospheric climate change or try

climate change impacts this might get you some links

According to "Inconvenience Truth" the world only had until 2008 to stop global warming. Now it is TOO LATE.

90% of humanity will die HORRIBLE deaths from floods, hurricanes, droughts, blizzards, tsunamis, asteroids and earthquakes.

Only the Lear jet people like Michael Moore and Al Gore will survive the coming climate APOCALYPSE in their underground mansions.

Define Climate Change. You can't explain the dangers of something that hasn't been defined.

State, in your own words, the dangers of global climate change and develop a thesis for possible solutions. Explain, in detail, the interactions between thermohaline circulation, atmospheric circulation, waves and tides. Site two current world concerns due to global climate change.
