2. 5 deadliest effect of global
warming
 The melting of the ice caps in the polar region
 The economic consequences
 Increased probability and intensity of drought and
heat waves
 Warmer waters and more hurricanes
 Spread of diseases

3. 1.The melting of the ice caps in the polar
region
 The melting of the ice caps will cause the sea level to
rise.
 There are 5,773,000 cubic miles of water in ice caps,
glaciers, and permanent snow.
 According to the National Snow and Ice Data Center, if
all glaciers melted today the seas would rise about 230
feet.
 That’s not going to happen all at once, but still, the sea
level will rise.

5.  As the consequences, the melting of the ice caps will
change the landscapes of the artic.
 If more ice melts, it means that there are less land
areas for creatures living in the artic.
 Living creatures such as polar bears need the ice in the
artic as their living ground and shelter.

6. When the ice melts, polar
bears will lose their habitat
and they will be in great
danger since they depends
largely on the ice caps for
their continuity of life.

7. 2. The economic
consequences
 According to a 700-page report written by former
World Bank chief economist Nicholas
Stern, hundreds of millions of people could suffer
from hunger, water shortages and coastal flooding as
the Earth gets warmer.
 This could cause us lots of money since we have to
spend more money on food and water, and more
money to build land areas for people to live in.
 If temperatures rise by 3 degrees Celsius, rising sea
levels and flooding could displace 200 million people.

8. When the temperature rises,
the ice melts and the sea
level will rise. The increase
in sea level will make it
possible for floods to happen
in areas where there are
seas. Houses and buildings
will be destroyed and large
amount of money will be
needed to build them back.

9. 3. Increased probability and intensity of
drought and heat waves
 What is heat waves?
 A heat wave is a prolonged period of excessively hot
weather, which may be accompanied by
high humidity.
 The temperatures that people from a hotter climate
consider normal can be termed a heat wave in a cooler
area.

10. 35 to 40 degree Celsius
might be usual to us,
but it might be unusual
to the Eskimos since
they are used to the
temperature below 0
degree Celsius. That is
what they will call heat
waves.

11.  Although some areas of Earth will become wetter due
to global warming, other areas will suffer serious
droughts and heat waves.
 Africa will receive the worst of it, with more severe
droughts also expected in Europe.
 Water is already a dangerously rare commodity in
Africa, and according to the Intergovernmental Panel
on Climate Change, global warming will only worsen
the conditions.

12. With merely dry lands in the
area, it is almost impossible
for the people living in that
area to grow crops to
support their living. This
will cause food shortage
and even famine.

13. 4. Warmer waters and more hurricanes
 As the temperature of oceans rises, so will the
probability of more frequent and stronger hurricanes.
 The most devastating hurricane was the Katrina
which happened in the year 2005 in the United States.
 It produced catastrophic damage - estimated at $75
billion in the New Orleans area and along the
Mississippi coast - and is the costliest U. S. hurricane
on record.
 Katrina is also responsible for approximately 1200
reported deaths, including about 1000 in Louisiana
and 200 in Mississippi.

15. 5. Spread of diseases
 As the temperature gets hotter, the climate changes
drastically.
 Vectors such as mosquitoes adapted well to the changes in
their ecology and became stronger.
 They developed in their body system in order to adapt to
the climate change and so did they develop new diseases.
 As northern countries warm, disease carrying insects
migrate north, bringing plague and disease with them.
 Indeed, many scientists point to global warming as a factor
in the spread of malaria and other vector-borne infectious
diseases.

17. conclusion
 As a conclusion, the causes and the effects of global
warming is inter-connected with each other.
Temperature The sea water The ice caps
rises becomes hotter melts
Drought and Coastal floods
Sea level rises
heat waves and flash floods
Food and water shortage, Damage buildings Big loss
famine and death and homes
