Global warming has many damaging effects on both the natural environment and on humanity. For example, as we continue to have rising temperatures, the polar ice caps are melting away, such as the Arctic and Antarctica. In these regions, there are numerous spices that live there and feed off the marine life. These animals can not adapt to a warmer new climate, they will die off and become extinct. Global warming has gotten so bad that the weather changes so drastically from year to year. Last week, there were tornadoes that touched down in downtown Atlanta. Up north in the Midwest area last year there were numerous amounts snow storms that left people without power for more than two weeks. When this year came around, there was barely snow during the winter solstice.
When it comes to human health, global warming can be just as dangerous. Because of rising temperatures around the world, countries such as Ethiopia, Kenya, Somalia, and Sudan, agriculturalists can not produce enough food to feed the starving people in their countries. Thus, people are dying of malnutrition, starvation, and disease. Also, the extremely warm temperatures are increasing the cases of heat stroke and dehydration world wide.
